Pairing ANT+ Sensors
The first time you connect a sensor to your device using ANT+
wireless technology, you must pair the device and sensor. After
they are paired, the device connects to the sensor automatically
when you start an activity and the sensor is active and within
range.
NOTE: If a heart rate monitor was bundled with your device, the
included heart rate monitor is already paired with your device.
1
If you are pairing a heart rate monitor, put on the heart rate
monitor
(Putting On the Heart Rate Monitor, page
The heart rate monitor does not send or receive data until
you put it on.
2
Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.
NOTE: Stay 10 m (33 ft.) away from other ANT+ sensors
while pairing.

Situational Awareness
Your fēnix device can be used with the Varia Vision
Varia
™
smart bike lights, and rearview radar to improve
situational awareness. See the owner's manual for your Varia
device for more information.
NOTE: You may need to update the fēnix software before
pairing Varia devices
(Updating the Software Using Garmin
Connect Mobile, page

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.
Improving Foot Pod Calibration
Before you can calibrate your device, you must acquire GPS
signals and pair your device with the foot pod
Sensors, page
24).
The foot pod is self-calibrating, but you can improve the
accuracy of the speed and distance data with a few outdoor runs
using GPS.
1
Stand outside for 5 minutes with a clear view of the sky.
2
Start a running activity.
3
Run on a track without stopping for 10 minutes.
4
Stop your activity, and save it.
Based on the recorded data, the foot pod calibration value
changes, if necessary. You should not need to calibrate the
foot pod again unless your running style changes.
Calibrating Your Foot Pod Manually
Before you can calibrate your device, you must pair your device
with the foot pod sensor
(Pairing ANT+ Sensors, page
Manual calibration is recommended if you know your calibration
factor. If you have calibrated a foot pod with another Garmin
product, you may know your calibration factor.

Adjust the calibration factor:
• Increase the calibration factor if your distance is too low.
• Decrease the calibration factor if your distance is too high.
Setting Foot Pod Speed and Distance
Before you can customize the foot pod speed and distance, you
must pair your device with the foot pod sensor

You can set your device to calculate pace and distance from
your foot pod data instead of GPS data.
