Follow the on-screen instructions.
3 Do not disconnect your device from the computer while the
Garmin Express application downloads the software.
TIP: If you are having trouble updating the software with the
Garmin Express application, you may need to upload your
activity history to the Garmin Connect application and delete
your activity history from the device. This should provide
sufficient memory space for the update.
