ANT+ Sensors
Your device can be used with wireless ANT+ sensors. For more
information about compatibility and purchasing optional sensors,

Pairing ANT+ Sensors
Pairing is the connecting of ANT+ wireless sensors, for example,
connecting a heart rate monitor with your Garmin device. The
first time you connect an ANT+ sensor to your device, you must
pair the device and sensor. After the initial pairing, the device
automatically connects to the sensor when you start your activity
and the sensor is active and within range.

Select , and select an activity profile.
2
Install the sensor or put on the heart rate monitor.
3
Bring the device within 1 cm of the sensor, and wait while the
device connects to the sensor.
When the device detects the sensor, a message appears.
You can customize a data field to display sensor data.

Foot Pod
Your device is compatible with the foot pod. You can use the
foot pod to record pace and distance instead of using GPS when
you are training indoors or when your GPS signal is weak. The
foot pod is on standby and ready to send data (like the heart
rate monitor).
After 30 minutes of inactivity, the foot pod powers off to
conserve the battery. When the battery is low, a message
appears on your device. Approximately five hours of battery life
remain.
Going for a Run Using a Foot Pod
Before you go for a run, you must pair the foot pod with your
Forerunner device (
).
You can run indoors using a foot pod to record pace, distance,
and cadence. You can also run outdoors using a foot pod to
record cadence data with your GPS pace and distance.
1
Install your foot pod according to the accessory instructions.
2
Select the
Run Indoor
activity profile.
3
Go for a run.
Foot Pod Calibration
The foot pod is self-calibrating. The accuracy of the speed and
distance data improves after a few outdoor runs using GPS.
