If you are using an ANT+ heart
rate monitor, select

When you initially turn on the
Forerunner and are completing the
initial setup, use the table on

you are a lifetime athlete.

who has trained intensely for many
years (with the exception of minor

Acquiring Satellite
Signals
It may take 30–60 seconds to acquire
satellite signals. Go outdoors to an
open area. For the best reception,
ensure that the face of the Forerunner
is oriented toward the sky.
When the Forerunner has acquired
satellite signals, the training page
appears with the satellite icon ( ) at
the top.
note: By default, the settings on
your Forerunner update the time
and correct time zone automatically
according to satellite information.
