Troubleshooting
Problem Solution/Answer
The buttons don’t
respond. How do I
reset the Forerunner?
CAUTION: This procedure deletes all information that you have
entered. Press view, mode, and start/stop simultaneously
to reset the Forerunner software. This restores the factory
settings. Workout data is deleted. You must reset the time and
custom settings. If you are still having problems, remove and
then replace the battery (see page 26).
How do I set the time
to AM or PM?
Verify that the time mode is set to 12-H (12 hour). Use + and
- to select the correct hour. The A or P icon appears above the
seconds on the Time page. For more information, see page 3.
The Forerunner will
not send data to my
computer.
See page 17 to enable computer pairing.
The heart rate
monitor or foot pod
will not pair with the
Forerunner.
Stay 10 m away from other ANT sensors while pairing.
Bring the Forerunner within range (3 m) of the heart rate
monitor while pairing.
If the problem persists, replace the battery.
The heart rate monitor
strap is too big.
A smaller elastic strap is sold separately. Go to http://shop
.garmin.com.
