About the Barometric

Altimeter

NOTE: The barometric altimeter does not

function in swim mode.
Your Forerunner calculates elevation

using the barometric altimeter. The

barometric altimeter is sensitive to

weather events and pressurized areas

such as airplane cabins and cars. If the

barometric altimeter starts to report false

readings due to environmental conditions,

the Forerunner will use GPS elevation

data.
You can customize your data fields to

include elevation (

page 36

).

Altimeter

elevation.
