Replacing the FR70 Battery

All of your settings are preserved,

except the time of day.

nOTE: Before replacing the

battery, save all of your data to

your computer or to history (see

page 26

).

nOTE: Garmin recommends that

you replace the battery in a low‑

humidity environment to prevent

condensation from forming inside

the watch.

1. Use a small Phillips screwdriver

to remove the screws, from the

FR70 back cover.

2. Carefully lift the back cover, and

remove the battery.

nOTE: Be careful not to move

the red O‑ring gasket in the

battery compartment.

nOTE: Be careful not to

contaminate the O‑ring gasket.

Any contamination could

compromise the performance of

the watch.

3. Replace the battery with the

positive side facing up.

nOTE: Make sure the gasket

is seated correctly in the gasket

trough before screwing the back

plate on.

4. Replace the back cover and the

four screws ensuring the gasket

is in place. Do not over tighten

the screws. (Garmin recommends

a torque of 1 in.-lb.)
