WARNING
Before you can use the inReach features of your Tread XL device, including messaging, SOS, and team tracking,
you must have an active satellite subscription. Always test your device outdoors before you use it.
Ensure you have a clear view of the sky when using the messaging, tracking, and SOS functions, because these
features require satellite access to operate properly.
NOTICE
Some jurisdictions regulate or prohibit the use of satellite communications devices. It is the responsibility of the
user to know and follow all applicable laws in the jurisdictions where the device is intended to be used.
Activating the Device
WARNING
Before you can use the inReach features of your Tread XL device, including messaging, SOS, and team tracking,
you must activate the device.
1 From your computer or smartphone, go to garmin.com/teamtracking to create an account and activate a
service plan.
2 Turn on the device.
3 From the main menu on your device, select Team Tracking.
4 Follow the on-screen instructions.
NOTE: You must enter the device IMEI number and authorization code to complete the online portion of the
activation before you go outdoors.
5 Go outdoors to an open area with a clear view of the sky, and point the antenna on the device toward the sky
for optimal performance.
