Disconnecting the USB Cable
If your device is connected to your computer as a removable drive or volume, you must safely disconnect your

Profiles
The Edge bike computer has several ways for you to customize the device, including profiles. Profiles are a
collection of settings that optimize your device based on how you are using it. For example, you can create
different settings and views for training and mountain biking.
When you are using a profile and you change settings such as data fields or units of measurement, the changes
are saved automatically as part of the profile.
Activity Profiles: You can create activity profiles for each type of biking. For example, you can create a separate
activity profile for training, for racing, and for mountain biking. The activity profile includes customized data
pages, activity totals, alerts, training zones (such as heart rate and speed), training settings (such as Auto
Pause
®
and Auto Lap
®
features), and navigation settings.
TIP: When you sync, activity profiles are saved in your Garmin Connect account and can be sent to your
device at any time.
User Profile: You can update your sex, age, weight, and height settings. The device uses this information to
