Safety and Tracking Features
CAUTION
The safety and tracking features are supplemental features and 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.
NOTICE
To use the safety and tracking features, the MARQ Adventurer watch must be connected to the Garmin Connect
app using Bluetooth technology. Your paired phone must be equipped with a data plan and be in an area of
network coverage where data is available. You can enter emergency contacts in your Garmin Connect account.
For more information about safety and tracking features, go to
Assistance: Allows you to send a message with your name, LiveTrack link, and GPS location (if available) to
your emergency contacts.
Incident detection: When the MARQ Adventurer watch detects an incident during certain outdoor activities,
the watch sends an automated message, LiveTrack link, and GPS location (if available) to your emergency
contacts.
LiveTrack: Allows friends and family to follow your races and training activities in real time. You can invite
followers using email or social media, allowing them to view your live data on a web page.
Live Event Sharing: Allows you to send messages to friends and family during an event, providing real-time
updates.
NOTE: This feature is available only if your watch is connected to a compatible Android phone.
