Compass
The watch has a 3-axis compass with automatic calibration. The compass features and appearance change
depending on your activity, whether GPS is enabled, and whether you are navigating to a destination.
Calibrating the Compass Manually
NOTICE
Calibrate the electronic compass outdoors. To improve heading accuracy, do not stand near objects that
influence magnetic fields, such as vehicles, buildings, and overhead power lines.
Your watch was already calibrated at the factory, and the watch uses automatic calibration by default. If you
experience irregular compass behavior, for example, after moving long distances or after extreme temperature
changes, you can manually calibrate the compass.
1 Hold .
2 Select Settings > Sensors & Accessories > Compass > Start Calibration.
3 Follow the on-screen instructions.
TIP: Move your wrist in a small figure eight motion until a message appears.
Wireless Sensors
Your watch can be paired and used with wireless sensors using ANT+
®
or Bluetooth technology (
Your Wireless Sensors, page 48
). After the devices are paired, you can customize the optional data fields
(
Customizing the Data Screens, page 20
). If your watch was packaged with a sensor, they are already paired.
For information about specific Garmin sensor compatibility, purchasing, or to view the owner's manual, go to
for that sensor.
Sensor Type Description
Club Sensors
You can use Approach
®
CT10 golf club sensors to automatically track your golf shots, including
location, distance, and club type.
tempe
You can attach the tempe temperature sensor to a secure strap or loop where it is exposed to
ambient air, so it provides a consistent source of accurate temperature data.
Pairing Your Wireless Sensors
Before you can pair, you must put on the heart rate monitor or install the sensor.
The first time you connect a wireless sensor using ANT+ or Bluetooth technology, you must pair the watch and
sensor. If the sensor has both ANT+ and Bluetooth technology, Garmin recommends that you pair using ANT+
technology. After they are paired, the watch connects to the sensor automatically when you start an activity and
the sensor is active and within range.
TIP: Some ANT+ sensors pair with your watch automatically when you start an activity with the sensor turned
on and near the watch.
1 Bring the watch within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.
NOTE: Stay 10 m (33 ft.) away from other wireless sensors while pairing.
2 Hold .
3 Select Settings > Accessories > Add New.
4 Select an option:
• Select Search All.
• Select your sensor type.
After the sensor is paired with your watch, the sensor status changes from Searching to Connected. Sensor
data appears in the data screen loop or a custom data field. You can customize the optional data fields
(
Customizing the Data Screens, page 20
).
