Important Safety and

Product Information

WARNING

EN

 

Failure to heed the following warnings could result in an accident or medical event resulting in death or serious injury.

Health Warnings

If you have a pacemaker or other internal electronic device, consult your physician before using a heart rate monitor.

Always consult your physician before beginning or modifying any exercise program.

The Garmin® device, accessories, heart rate monitor, and related data are intended to be used only for recreational purposes and not for medical purposes, and are not intended to diagnose, monitor, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or condition.

The heart rate readings are for reference only, and no responsibility is accepted for the consequences of any erroneous readings.

While the Garmin optical wrist heart rate monitor technology typically provides an accurate estimate of a user’s heart rate, there are inherent limitations with the technol-

ogy that may cause some of the heart rate readings to be inaccurate under certain circumstances, including the user’s physical characteristics, fit of the device, and type and intensity of activity.

Garmin activity trackers rely on sensors that

Forerunner® 735XT

1

track your movement and other metrics. The data and information provided by these devices is intended to be a close estimation of

EN your activity and metrics tracked, but may not be completely accurate, including step, sleep, distance, heart rate, and calorie data.

Off-Road Navigation Warnings

If your Garmin device is able to suggest off-road routes for various outdoor activities, such as biking, hiking, and all-terrain vehicles, follow these guidelines to ensure safe off-road navigation.

Always use your best judgment and exercise common sense when making off-road navigational decisions. The Garmin device is designed to provide route suggestions only. It is not a replacement for attentiveness and proper preparation for outdoor activities. Do not follow the route suggestions if they suggest an illegal course or would put you in an unsafe situation.

Always carefully compare information displayed on the device to all available navigation sources, including trail signs, trail conditions, weather conditions, and other factors that may affect safety while navigating. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation, and defer to posted signs and conditions.

Always be mindful of the effects of the environment and the inherent risks of the activity before embarking on off-road activities, especially the impact that weather and

2

Forerunner® 735XT

weatherrelated trail conditions can have on the safety of your activity. Ensure that you have the proper gear and supplies for your

activity before navigating along unfamiliar EN paths and trails.

Battery Warnings

A lithium-ion battery can be used in this device. Coin cell batteries can be used in the accessory.

If these guidelines are not followed, batteries may experience a shortened life span or may present a risk of damage to the device, fire, chemical burn, electrolyte leak, and/or injury.

Do not leave the device exposed to a heat source or in a high-temperature location, such as in the sun in an unattended vehicle. To prevent the possibility of damage, remove the device from the vehicle or store it out of direct sunlight, such as in the glove box.

Do not disassemble, modify, remanufacture, puncture or damage the device or batteries.

Do not immerse or expose the device or batteries to water or other liquids, fire, explosion, or other hazard.

Do not use a sharp object to remove the removable batteries.

KEEP BATTERIES AWAY FROM CHILDREN.

NEVER PUT BATTERIES IN MOUTH. Swallowing can lead to chemical burns, perforation of soft tissue, and death. Severe burns can occur within 2 hours of ingestion. Seek medical attention immediately.

Forerunner® 735XT

Replaceable coin cell batteries may contain perchlorate material. Special handling may apply. See www.dtsc.ca.gov.hazardouswaste/

EN perchlorate.

Do not use a power and/or data cable that is not approved or supplied by Garmin.

If using an external battery charger, only use the Garmin accessory approved for your product.

Only replace batteries with correct replacement batteries. Using other batteries presents a risk of fire or explosion. To purchase replacement batteries, see your Garmin dealer or the Garmin website.

Do not operate the device outside of the temperature ranges specified in the printed manual in the product packaging.

When storing the device for an extended time period, store within the temperature ranges specified in the printed manual in the product packaging.

Heart Rate While Swimming

NOTE: Wrist-based heart rate is not available while swimming.

The HRM-Tri™ accessory and the HRMSwim™ accessory record and store your heart rate data while swimming. Heart rate data is not visible on compatible Forerunner devices while the heart rate monitor is underwater.

You must start a timed activity on your paired Forerunner device to view stored heart rate data later. During rest intervals when out of the water, the heart rate monitor sends your heart rate data to your Forerunner device.

Your Forerunner device automatically downloads stored heart rate data when you save your timed swim activity. Your heart rate monitor must be out of the water, active, and within range of the device (3 m) while data is downloaded. You can review your heart rate data in the device history and on your Garmin Connect™ account.

Going for Pool Swim

Swim Terminology

Length: One trip down the pool.

EN Interval: One or more consecutive lengths. A new interval starts after a rest.

Stroke: A stroke is counted every time your arm wearing the device completes a full cycle.

Swolf: Your swolf score is the sum of the time for one pool length and the number of strokes for that length. For example, 30 seconds plus 15 strokes equals a swolf score of 45. Swolf is a measurement of swimming efficiency and, like golf, a lower score is better.

Training Indoors

The device includes indoor activity profiles where GPS is turned off. You can turn off GPS when you are training indoors or to save battery life.

NOTE: Any change to the GPS setting is saved to the active profile.

Select Menu > Activity Settings > GPS > Off.

When running with GPS turned off, speed and distance are calculated using the accelerometer in the device. The accelerometer is selfcalibrating. The accuracy of the speed

and distance data improves after a few outdoor runs using GPS.

Workouts

You can create custom workouts that include goals for each workout step and for varied

18

Forerunner® 735XT

distances, times, and calories. You can create workouts using Garmin Connect or select a training plan that has built-in workouts from

Garmin Connect, and transfer them to your EN device.

You can schedule workouts using Garmin Connect. You can plan workouts in advance and store them on your device.
