Sizing the Heart Rate Monitor
Before your first swim, take some time sizing
the heart rate monitor. It should be tight enough
to stay in place when pushing off the pool wall.
• Select a strap extender , and attach it to the
elastic end of the heart rate monitor.
The heart rate mon i tor comes with three
extender straps to fit different chest sizes.
TIP: The medium strap extender works for
most shirt sizes (from medium to extra-
large).
• Put on the heart rate monitor backward to
easily adjust the slider on the strap
extender .
•
Put on the heart rate monitor forward to
easily adjust the slider on the heart rate
monitor.
Putting On the Heart Rate Monitor
You should wear the heart rate monitor directly
on your skin , just below your sternum .
1 Select a strap extender for the best fit.
2 Wear the heart rate monitor with the
2
Garmin ' logo facing right-side up.
The hook G) and loop ( ~ ) connection
should be on your right side .
Instructions

3 Wrap the heart rate monitor around your
chest, and connect the strap hook to the
loop.
NOTE: Make sure the care tag does not
fold over.

around your chest, but not restrictive.
After you put on the heart rate monitor, it is
active, storing, and sending data.
Pairing the Heart Rate Monitor with
Your Device
Before you can pair the heart rate monitor with
your device, you must put on the heart rate

Pairing is the connecting of ANT+ ® wireless
sensors, like your heart rate monitor, with a
Garmin ANT+ compatible device .
NOTE: The pairing instructions differ for each
Garmin compatible device. See your owner's
manual.
• For most Garmin compatible devices, bring
the device within 3m of the heart rate

while
pairing.
After
you
pair
the

automatically
recognizes
the
heart
rate
monitor
each
time
it
is
activated.
Heart
Rate
While
Swimming
The
heart
rate
monitor
records
and
stores
your
heart
rate
data
while
swimming.
Heart
rate
data
is
not
visible
on
compatible
Garmin

monitor
is
underwater.
You
must
start
a
timed
activity
on
your
paired
Garmin
device
to
view
stored
heart
rate
data
later.
During
rest
intervals
when
out
of
the
water,
the
heart
rate
monitor
sends
your
average
and
maximum
heart
rate
for
the
previous
interval,
and
your
real-time
heart
rate
,
to
your
Garmin
device.
Your
Garmin
device
automatically
uploads
stored
heart
rate
data
when
you
save
your
timed
swim
activity.
Your
heart
rate
monitor
must
be
out
of
the
water
,
active,
and
within
range
of
the
device
(3
m)
while
data
is
uploaded.
Your

device,
and
the
heart

even
if
you
move
away
from
your
device.
For
example,
you
can
record
heart
rate
data
during
fitness
activities
or
team

Before you can pair the heart rate monitor with

Garmin ANT+ compatible device.
NOTE: The pairing instructions differ for each

manual.
• For most Garmin compatible devices, bring
the device within 3m of the heart rate
monitor and use the device menu to pair
manually.
• For some Garmin compatible devices, bring
the device within 1 em of the heart rate
monitor to pair automatically.
TIP: Stay 10 m away from other ANT+
sensors while pairing.
After you pair the first time, your Garmin
compatible device automatically recognizes the
heart rate monitor each time it is activated.
Running Dynamics
You can use your compatible Garmin device
paired with the HRM-TrirM accessory to provide
Instructions

real-time feedback about your running form. If
your Garmin device was packaged wi th the
HRM- Tri accessory , the devices are already
paired.
The HRM-Tri accessory has an accelerometer
in the module that measures torso movement in
order to calculate three running metrics:
cadence, vertical oscillation, and ground
contact time.
NOTE: The HRM-Tri accessory is compatible
with several ANT+ fitness products and can
display heart rate data when paired. The
running dynamics features are available only
on some Garmin devices.
Cadence: Cadence is the number of steps per
minute. It displays total steps (right and left
combined) .
Vertical oscillation: Vertical oscillation is your
bounce while running. It displays the
vertical motion of your torso, measured in
centimeters for each step.
Ground contact time: Ground contact time is
the amount of time in each step that you
spend on the ground while running. It is
measured in milliseconds.
NOTE: Ground contact time is not available
while walking.
Pool Swimming
NOTICE
Hand wash the heart rate monitor after
exposure to chlorine or other pool chemicals.
Prolonged exposure to these substances can
damage the heart rate monitor.

Troubleshooting
Tips
for
Erratic
Heart
Rate
Data
If
the
heart
rate
data
is
erratic
or
does
not
appear,
you
can
try
these
tips.
•
Reapply
water
to
the
electrodes
and
contact
patches
(if
applicable).
•
Tighten
the
strap
on
your
chest.
•
Warm
up

5
to
10
minutes.
•
Follow
the
care
instructions
(page
8).
•
Wear
a
cotton
shirt
or
thoroughly
wet
both
sides
of
the
strap
.
Synthetic
fabrics
that
rub
or
flap
against
the
heart
rate
monitor
can
create
static
electricity
that
interferes
with
heart
rate
signals.
•
Move
away
from
