About VO2 Max. Estimates
VO2 max. is the maximum volume of oxygen (in milliliters) you
can consume per minute per kilogram of body weight at your
maximum performance. In simple terms, VO2 max. is an
indication of athletic performance and should increase as your
level of fitness improves. VO2 max. estimates are provided and
supported by Firstbeat. You can use your Garmin device paired
with a compatible heart rate monitor and power meter to display
your cycling VO2 max. estimate.
Getting Your VO2 Max. Estimate
Before you can view your VO2 max. estimate, you must put on
the heart rate monitor, install the power meter, and pair them
with your device (Pairing Your Wireless Sensors, page 9). If
your device was packaged with a heart rate monitor, the device
and sensor are already paired. For the most accurate estimate,
complete the user profile setup, and set your maximum heart
rate (Setting Up Your User Profile, page 5).
NOTE: The estimate may seem inaccurate at first. The device
requires a few rides to learn about your cycling performance.

VO2 max. data and analysis is provided with permission from
The Cooper Institute®. For more information, see the
appendix (VO2 Max. Standard Ratings, page 15), and go to
www.CooperInstitute.org.
Tips for Cycling VO2 Max. Estimates
The success and accuracy of the VO2 max. calculation
improves when your ride is a sustained and moderately hard
effort, and where heart rate and power are not highly variable.
• Before your ride, check that your device, heart rate monitor,
and power meter are functioning properly, paired, and have
good battery life.
• During your 20 minute ride, maintain your heart rate at
greater than 70% of your maximum heart rate.
• During your 20 minute ride, maintain a fairly constant power
output.
• Avoid rolling terrain.
• Avoid riding in groups where there is a lot of drafting.
Recovery Advisor
You can use your Garmin device with a heart rate monitor to
display how much time remains before you are fully recovered
and ready for the next hard workout.
Recovery time: The recovery time appears immediately
following an activity. The time counts down until it is optimal
for you to attempt another hard workout.
Viewing Your Recovery Time
Before you can use the recovery time feature, you must put on
the heart rate monitor, and pair it with your device (Pairing Your
Wireless Sensors, page 9). If your device was packaged with
a heart rate monitor, the device and sensor are already paired.
For the most accurate estimate, complete the user profile setup,
and set your maximum heart rate (Setting Up Your User Profile,

When you complete a ride, the device displays any new
personal records you achieved during that ride. Personal
records include your fastest time over a standard distance,
longest ride, and most ascent gained during a ride. When paired

maximum power reading recorded during a 20-minute period.

set performance goals. For example, if the original course
was completed in 30 minutes, you can race against a Virtual
Partner® trying to complete the course in under 30 minutes.
Following an existing ride from Garmin Connect: You can
send a course from Garmin Connect to your device. Once it

Incident Detection and Assistance Features
Incident Detection
CAUTION
Incident detection is a supplemental feature primarily designed
for road use. Incident detection should not be relied on as a
primary method to obtain emergency assistance. The Garmin
Connect app does not contact emergency services on your
behalf.
When an incident is detected by your Edge device with GPS
enabled, the Garmin Connect app can send an automated text
message and email with your name and GPS location to your
emergency contacts.
A message appears on your device and paired smartphone
indicating your contacts will be informed after 30 seconds have
elapsed. If assistance is not needed, you can cancel the
automated emergency message.
Before you can enable incident detection on your device, you
must set up emergency contact information in the Garmin
Connect app. Your paired smartphone must be equipped with a
data plan and be in an area of network coverage where data is
available. Your emergency contacts must be able to receive text
messages (standard text messaging rates may apply).

below your sternum. It should be snug enough to stay in place
during your activity.

NOTE: Make sure the care tag does not fold over.
After you put on the heart rate monitor, it is active and sending

Tips for Erratic Heart Rate Data
If the heart rate data is erratic or does not appear, you can try
these tips.
• Reapply water to the electrodes and contact patches (if
applicable).
• Tighten the strap on your chest.
• Warm up for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Follow the care instructions (Caring for the Heart Rate
Monitor, page 13).
• Wear a cotton shirt or thoroughly wet both sides of the strap.
Synthetic fabrics that rub or flap against the heart rate
monitor can create static electricity that interferes with heart
rate signals.
• Move away from sources that can interfere with your heart
rate monitor.
Sources of interference may include strong electromagnetic
fields, some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors, high-voltage power
lines, electric motors, ovens, microwave ovens, 2.4 GHz
cordless phones, and wireless LAN access points.
Fitness Goals
Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and
improve your fitness by understanding and applying these
principles.
• Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.
• Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve
cardiovascular capacity and strength.
If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table
(Heart Rate Zone Calculations, page 16) to determine the best
heart rate zone for your fitness objectives.
If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the
calculators available on the Internet. Some gyms and health
centers can provide a test that measures maximum heart rate.
The default maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age.
Installing the Speed Sensor
NOTE: If you do not have this sensor, you can skip this task.
TIP: Garmin recommends you secure your bike on a stand while

About the Speed and Cadence Sensors
Cadence data from the cadence sensor is always recorded. If no
speed and cadence sensors are paired with the device, GPS
data is used to calculate the speed and distance.
Cadence is your rate of pedaling or “spinning” measured by the
number of revolutions of the crank arm per minute (rpm).
Pairing Your Wireless Sensors
Before you can pair, you must put on the heart rate monitor or
install the sensor.
Pairing is the connecting of ANT+ or Bluetooth wireless sensors.
For example, connecting a heart rate monitor with your Garmin
device.
Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.

Pedal-Based Power
Vector measures pedal-based power.
Vector measures the force you apply a few hundred times every
second. Vector also measures your cadence or rotational
pedaling speed. By measuring the force, the direction of force,
the rotation of the crank arm, and time, Vector can determine
power (watts).

Your speed sensor automatically detects your wheel size. If
necessary, you can manually enter your wheel circumference in
the speed sensor settings.
The tire size is marked on both sides of the tire. This is not a
comprehensive list. You can also measure the circumference of
your wheel or use one of the calculators available on the
internet.
