Resetting All Default Settings
Before you reset all default settings, you should sync the watch with the Garmin Connect app to upload your
activity data.
You can reset all of the watch settings to the factory default values.
1 From the watch face, hold UP.
2 Select System > Reset.
3 Select an option:
• To reset all of the watch settings to the factory default values and save all user-entered information and
activity history, select Reset Default Settings.
• To delete all activities from the history, select Delete All Activities.
• To reset all distance and time totals, select Reset Totals.
• To reset all of the watch settings to the factory default values and delete all user-entered information and
activity history, select Delete Data and Reset Settings.
NOTE: If you have set up a GarminPay wallet, this option deletes the wallet from your watch. If you have
music stored on your watch, this option deletes your stored music.
Maximizing Battery Life
You can do several things to extend the life of the battery.
• Turn off music.
• Reduce the display brightness, and disable the Always On Display screen setting (Changing the Screen
Settings, page92).
• Set up the battery saver preferences in the power manager (Power Manager Settings, page90).
• Turn off Bluetooth technology when you are not using connected features (Phone Connectivity Features,
page74).
• Reduce the display timeout (Changing the Screen Settings, page92).
• Stop broadcasting heart rate data to paired Garmin devices (Broadcasting Heart Rate Data, page54).
• Turn off wrist-based heart rate monitoring (Turning Off the Wrist-based Heart Rate Monitor, page53).
NOTE: Wrist-based heart rate monitoring is used to calculate vigorous intensity minutes and calories burned.
• Limit the phone notifications the watch displays (Managing Notifications, page75).
• Turn off the pulse oximeter feature (Turning Off the Wrist-based Heart Rate Monitor, page53).
• When pausing your activity for a longer period of time, use the Resume Later option (Stopping an Activity,
page4).
• Select the Smart recording interval (System Settings, page91).
• Use UltraTrac GPS mode for your activity (GPS Settings, page88).
• Use a watch face that is not updated every second.
For example, use a watch face without a second hand (Customizing the Watch Face, page14).
