IMPORTANT SAFETY AND PRODUCT INFORMATION
WARNING
Failure to heed the following warnings could result in an accident or medical event resulting in death or
serious injury.
Battery Warnings
A lithium-ion battery can be used in this device. Coin cell batteries can be used in the accessory.
If these guidelines are not followed, batteries may experience a shortened life span or may present a
risk of damage to the device, fire, chemical burn, electrolyte leak, and/or injury.
• Do not disassemble, modify, remanufacture, puncture or damage the device or batteries.
• Do not remove or attempt to remove the non-user-replaceable battery.
• Do not expose the device or batteries to fire, explosion, or other hazard.
• Do not use a sharp object to remove the removable batteries.
• KEEP BATTERIES AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
NEVER PUT BATTERIES IN MOUTH. Swallowing can lead to chemical burns, perforation of soft
tissue, and death. Severe burns can occur within 2 hours of ingestion. Seek medical attention
immediately.
• If using an external battery charger, only use the Garmin
®
accessory approved for your product.
• Only replace batteries with correct replacement batteries. Using other batteries presents a risk of fire
or explosion. To purchase replacement batteries, see your Garmin dealer or the Garmin website.
Health Warnings
• If you have a pacemaker or other internal electronic device, consult your physician before using a
heart rate monitor.
• The Garmin optical wrist heart rate monitor emits green light and flashes occasionally. Consult your
physician if you have epilepsy or are sensitive to flashing lights.
• Always consult your physician before beginning or modifying any exercise program.
• The Garmin device, accessories, heart rate monitor, and related data are intended to be used only
for recreational purposes and not for medical purposes, and are not intended to diagnose, monitor,
treat, cure, or prevent any disease or condition.
• The heart rate readings are for reference only, and no responsibility is accepted for the
consequences of any erroneous readings.
• While the Garmin optical wrist heart rate monitor technology typically provides an accurate estimate
of a user's heart rate, there are inherent limitations with the technology that may cause some of the
heart rate readings to be inaccurate under certain circumstances, including the user's physical
characteristics, fit of the device, and type and intensity of activity.
• Garmin activity trackers rely on sensors that track your movement and other metrics. The data and
information provided by these devices is intended to be a close estimation of your activity and
metrics tracked, but may not be completely accurate, including step, sleep, distance, heart rate, and
calorie data.
Navigation Warnings
If your Garmin device uses or accepts mapping products, follow these guidelines to ensure safe
navigating.
• Always carefully compare information displayed on the device to all available navigation sources,
including information from visual sightings, local waterway rules and restrictions, and maps. For
safety, always resolve any discrepancies or questions before continuing navigation, and defer to
posed signs and conditions.
• Use this device only as a navigational aid. Do not attempt to use the device for any purpose requiring
precise measurement of direction, distance, location, or topography.
Off-Road Navigation Warnings
If your Garmin device is able to suggest off-road routes for various outdoor activities, such as biking,
hiking, and all-terrain vehicles, follow these guidelines to ensure safe off-road navigation.
• Always use your best judgment and exercise common sense when making off-road navigational
decisions. The Garmin device is designed to provide route suggestions only. It is not a replacement
for attentiveness and proper preparation for outdoor activities. Do not follow the route suggestions if
they suggest an illegal course or would put you in an unsafe situation.
• Always carefully compare information displayed on the device to all available navigation sources,
including trail signs, trail conditions, weather conditions, and other factors that may affect safety while
navigating. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation, and defer to
posted signs and conditions.
• Always be mindful of the effects of the environment and the inherent risks of the activity before
embarking on off-road activities, especially the impact that weather and weather-related trail
conditions can have on the safety of your activity. Ensure that you have the proper gear and supplies
for your activity before navigating along unfamiliar paths and trails.
NOTICE
Failure to heed the following notice could result in personal or property damage, or negatively impact
the device functionality.
Battery Notices
• Do not immerse or expose batteries to water or other liquids.
• Do not leave the device exposed to a heat source or in a high-temperature location, such as in the
sun in an unattended vehicle. To prevent the possibility of damage, remove the device from the
vehicle or store it out of direct sunlight, such as in the glove box.
• Do not operate the device outside of the temperature ranges specified in the printed manual in the
product packaging.
• When storing the device for an extended time period, store within the temperature ranges specified in
the printed manual in the product packaging.

applicable local laws and regulations.
GPS Notice
The navigation device may experience degraded performance if you use it in proximity to any device
that uses a terrestrial broadband network operating close to the frequencies used by any Global
Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), such as the Global Positioning Service (GPS). Use of such
devices may impair reception of GNSS signals.

interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and may cause harmful interference to radio communications if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
