Wireless Sensors
Your watch can be paired and used with wireless ANT+ or Bluetooth sensors (Pairing Your Wireless Sensors,
page 60). After the devices are paired, you can customize the optional data fields (Customizing the Data
Screens, page 81). If your watch was packaged with a sensor, they are already paired.
