Tips for Improving GNSS Satellite Reception

  • Frequently sync the device to your Garmin® account:
    • Connect your device to a computer using the USB cable and the Garmin Express™ application.

    • Sync your device to the Garmin Connect™ app using your Bluetooth® enabled phone.

    • Connect your device to your Garmin account using a Wi‑Fi® wireless network.

    While connected to your Garmin account, the device downloads several days of satellite data, allowing it to quickly locate satellite signals.

  • Take your device outside to an open area away from tall buildings and trees.
  • Remain stationary for a few minutes.
