Tips for Maximizing the Battery Life
To extend the life of the battery, you can try these tips.
• Change the power mode during an activity (Changing the Power Mode, page 165).
• Turn on the battery saver feature from the controls menu (Controls, page 107).
• Reduce the screen timeout (Changing the Screen Settings, page 169).
• Reduce the screen brightness (Changing the Screen Settings, page 169).
• Use UltraTrac satellite mode for your activity.
• Turn off Bluetooth technology when you are not using connected features (Controls, page 107).
• When pausing your activity for a longer period of time, use the Resume Later option (Stopping an Activity,
page 39).
• Use a watch face that is not updated every second.
For example, use a watch face without a second hand (Customizing the Watch Face, page 88).
• Limit the phone notifications the watch displays (Managing Notifications, page 136).
• Stop broadcasting heart rate data to paired devices (Broadcasting Heart Rate Data, page 117).
• Turn off wrist-based heart rate monitoring (Wrist Heart Rate Monitor Settings, page 115).
NOTE: Wrist-based heart rate monitoring is used to calculate vigorous intensity minutes and calories burned.
• Turn on manual pulse oximeter readings (Setting the Pulse Oximeter Mode, page 118).

Acquiring Satellite Signals
The device may need a clear view of the sky to acquire satellite signals. The time and date are set automatically
based on the GPS position.
TIP: For more information about GPS, go to garmin.com/aboutGPS.
1 Go outdoors to an open area.
The front of the device should be oriented toward the sky.
2 Wait while the device locates satellites.
It may take 30–60 seconds to locate satellite signals.
