Pairing Your ANT‍+ Heart Rate Monitor

Before you can pair your heart rate monitor, you must enable the heart rate data screen on your vívofit® 3 device. For more information about customizing the visible screens, see Device Settings.

Pairing is the connecting of ANT‍+® wireless sensors, like your heart rate monitor, with a Garmin® compatible product. After you pair the first time, your Garmin product automatically recognizes your heart rate monitor each time it is activated.

NOTE: Using a heart rate monitor decreases battery life.
  1. Put on the heart rate monitor.
  2. Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.
    NOTE: Stay 10 m (33 ft.) away from other ANT‍+ sensors while pairing.
  3. Press the device key to scroll to the heart rate data screen.

    The Heart rate symbol icon flashes at the top of the screen.

  4. Wait while the device connects to your heart rate monitor.

    When the sensor is paired with your device, your heart rate and heart rate zone appear.
