go to http://buy.garmin.com.
Putting On the Heart Rate Monitor
NOTE: If you do not have a heart rate monitor, you can skip this
task.
You should wear the heart rate monitor directly on your skin, just
below your sternum. It should be snug enough to stay in place
during your activity.
1
Snap the heart rate monitor module
À
onto the strap.
The Garmin logos on the module and the strap should be
right-side up.
2
Wet the electrodes
Á
and the contact patches
Â
on the back
of the strap to create a strong connection between your chest
and the transmitter.
3
Wrap the strap around your chest, and connect the strap
hook
Ã
to the loop
Ä
.
NOTE: The care tag should not fold over.
The Garmin logos should be right-side up.
4
Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the heart rate monitor.
After you put on the heart rate monitor, it is active and sending
data.
TIP: If the heart rate data is erratic or does not appear, see the
troubleshooting tips (Tips for Erratic Heart Rate Data,
page 11).
Recovery Time
You can use your Garmin device with wrist-based heart rate or a
compatible chest heart rate monitor to display how much time
remains before you are fully recovered and ready for the next
hard workout.
NOTE: The recovery time recommendation uses your VO2 max.
estimate and may seem inaccurate at first. The device requires
you to complete a few activities to learn about your
performance.
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
ANT+ Sensors, page 12). 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
(Setting Up Your User Profile, page 15), and set your
maximum heart rate (Setting Your Heart Rate Zones, page 11).
1
Select Menu > My Stats > Recovery Advisor > Enable.
2
Go for a ride.
3
After your ride, select Save Ride.
The recovery time appears. The maximum time is 4 days,
and the minimum time is 6 hours.
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 ANT+ Sensors, page 12). 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 (Setting Up Your User Profile,
