GPS and Other Satellite Systems
Using GPSand another satellite system together offers increased performance in challenging environments and
faster position acquisition than using GPS only. However, using multiple systems can reduce battery life more
quickly than using GPS only.
Your device can use these Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). Multi-band systems use multiple
frequency bands and allow for more consistent track logs, improved positioning, improved multi-path errors,
and fewer atmospheric errors when using the device in challenging environments.
NOTE: You can view satellite locations and available satellite systems on the satellite page (
page33).

Navigation
You can use the GPS navigation features on your device to navigate a saved activity, route, or course.
• Your device records your path as an activity. Activities use corridor navigation. When navigating a saved
activity, it cannot be recalculated (Recordings, page16).
• A route is a sequence of waypoints or locations that leads you to your destination. If you depart from the
original route, the device recalculates the route and provides new directions (Routes, page14).
• A course can have multiple destinations, and can be created point to point or on routable roads. When
navigating a saved course, you can choose to navigate using the direct path with no map adjustments or
recalculations, or following roads and trails with recalculations as needed. You can convert saved activities
and routes to courses (Courses, page19).

Optional Accessories
Optional accessories, such as mounts, maps, fitness accessories, and replacement parts, are available at http:/
/buy.garmin.com or from your Garmin dealer.
tempe
Your device is compatible with the tempe temperature sensor. You can attach the sensor to a secure strap or
loop where it is exposed to ambient air, so it provides a consistent source of accurate temperature data. You
must pair the tempe sensor with your device to display temperature data. See the instructions for your tempe
sensor for more information.

Tips for Pairing Wireless Sensors
• Verify that the sensor is compatible with your Garmin device.
• Before you pair the sensor with your Garmin device, move 10 m (33 ft.) away from other sensors with ANT+
technology.
• Bring the Garmin device within range 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.
• After you pair the first time, your Garmin device automatically recognizes the sensor each time it is activated.
This process occurs automatically when you turn on the Garmin device and only takes a few seconds when
the sensors are activated and functioning correctly.
• When paired, your Garmin device receives data from only your sensor, and you can go near other sensors.
Troubleshooting
Maximizing Battery Life
You can do several things to extend the life of the batteries.
• Reduce the backlight brightness (
• Reduce the backlight timeout (Display Settings, page37).
• Reduce the flashlight brightness or flash frequency (Using the Flashlight, page28).
• Turn off the screen automatically when the backlight times out (Turning Off the Screen, page37).
• Use expedition mode (Turning On Expedition Mode, page38).
• Turn off wireless connectivity (Wi‑Fi Settings, page37).
• Turn off Bluetooth technology (Bluetooth Settings, page37).
• Turn off additional satellite systems (GPS and Other Satellite Systems, page4).
Adjusting the Backlight, page4).
Long-Term Storage
When you do not plan to use the device for several months, you should charge the battery to at least 50% before
you store the device. You should store the device in a cool, dry place with temperatures around the typical
household level. After storage, you should fully recharge the device before using it.
Restarting the Device
If the device stops responding, you may need to restart it. This does not erase any of your data or settings.
Hold the power button for approximately 30 seconds.
About Heart Rate Zones
Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and increase their cardiovascular strength and improve their
level of fitness. A heart rate zone is a set range of heartbeats per minute. The five commonly accepted
heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5 according to increasing intensity. Generally, heart rate zones are
calculated based on percentages of your maximum heart rate.
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 (
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.
