This task is for the Forerunner® 965, fēnix® 7 series, and Venu® 2 series watches. If your watch is not listed, go to buy.garmin.com.

NOTE: Not all Varia™ RCT715 features are available on all compatible watches. See your watch owner's manual.
  1. Bring the watch within range (3 m) of the Varia RCT715.
    NOTE: Stay 10 m away from other sensors that use ANT‍+® technology while pairing.
  2. Turn on the Garmin® watch.
  3. From the Settings menu, select Sensors & Accessories > Add New > Search All.
  4. While the Varia RCT715 device is turned off, hold the device button for 2 seconds to enter pairing mode.

    The status LED flashes purple, and the tail light turns on. The device is in pairing mode for 5 minutes or until you press the device button to exit pairing mode.

  5. Select your sensor.

When the radar device is paired with your Garmin watch, the radar and bike light status icons appear solid.
