Viewing Your SpO2 Readings in Flight
WARNING
The SpO2 readings are intended for supplemental
information only. Always defer to applicable flight
instruments for primary awareness.
The MARQ device has a wrist-based pulse oximeter to
gauge the saturation of oxygen in your blood (SpO2).
During a flight, the device automatically takes pulse
oximeter readings more frequently, so you can monitor
your SpO2 percentage.
TIP: You can improve the accuracy of your SpO2
readings by turning on all-day acclimation mode in the
pulse oximeter widget settings (Turning On All-Day Pulse
Oximeter Readings, page31).
During a flight, scroll up or down to view the SpO2 data
screen.
Your most recent reading appears as an oxygen
saturation percentage and position on the color gauge.
NOTE: If you are too active for the device to determine
your oxygen saturation, dashes appear instead of a
percentage. You should remain stationary for up to
30 seconds while the device reads your blood oxygen
saturation.

Indoor Activities
The watch can be used for training indoors, such as
running on an indoor track or using a stationary bike
or indoor trainer. GPS is turned off for indoor activities
(Activities and App Settings, page45).
When running or walking with GPS turned off, speed and
distance are calculated using the accelerometer in the
watch. The accelerometer is self-calibrating. The accuracy
of the speed and distance data improves after a few
outdoor runs or walks using GPS.
TIP: Holding the handrails of the treadmill reduces
accuracy.
When cycling with GPS turned off, speed and distance
data are not available unless you have an optional sensor
that sends speed and distance data to the watch, such as
a speed or cadence sensor.
Going for a Virtual Run
You can pair your watch with a compatible third-party app
to transmit pace, heart rate, or cadence data.
1From the watch face, press START.
2Select Virtual Run.
3On your tablet, laptop, or phone, open the Zwift™ app or
another virtual training app.

default activities, such as walking or rowing. You can also
add custom activities to your device (Creating a Custom
Activity, page7).
Going for a Track Run
Before you go for a track run, make sure you are running

14 Select Save.
Tips for Recording a Track Run
• Wait until the GPS status indicator turns green before
starting a track run.
• During your first run on an unfamiliar track, run for a
minimum of 3 laps to calibrate your track distance.
You should run slightly past your starting point to
complete the lap.
• Run each lap in the same lane.
NOTE: The default Auto Lap® distance is 1600 m, or 4

Viewing Your Ski Runs
Your watch records the details of each downhill skiing
or snowboarding run using the auto run feature. This
feature is turned on by default for downhill skiing and
snowboarding. It automatically records new ski runs
based on your movement. The activity timer pauses when
you stop moving downhill and when you are on a chairlift.
The activity timer remains paused during the chairlift ride.
You can start moving downhill to restart the activity timer.
You can view run details from the paused screen or while
the activity timer is running.

between climbing and descending tracking modes so you
can accurately track your statistics.
1From the watch face, press START.
2Select Backcountry Ski.
3Select an option:
• If you are starting your activity on a climb, select
Climbing.

Cross-Country Skiing Power Data
You can use your compatible MARQ device paired with the
HRM-Pro™ accessory to provide real-time feedback about
your cross-country skiing performance.
NOTE: The HRM-Pro accessory must be paired to the
MARQ device using ANT® technology.
Power is the force you generate while skiing. The power
output is measured in watts. Factors that affect power
include your speed, elevation changes, wind, and snow
conditions. You can use power output to measure and
improve your skiing performance.
NOTE: Skiing power values are generally lower than
cycling power values. This is normal and occurs because
humans are less efficient at skiing than they are at
cycling. It is common for ski power values to be 30 to
40 percent lower than cycling power values at the same
training intensity.

Swimming
NOTICE
The device is intended for surface swimming. Scuba
diving with the device may damage the product and will
void the warranty.
NOTE: The watch has wrist-based heart rate enabled
for swim activities. The watch is also compatible with
the HRM-Pro, HRM-Swim™, and HRM-Tri™ accessories. If
both wrist-based heart rate and chest heart rate data are
available, your watch uses the chest heart rate data.
Swim Terminology
Length: One trip down the pool.
Interval: One or more consecutive lengths. A new interval
starts after a rest.
Stroke: A stroke is counted every time your arm wearing
the watch completes a full cycle.
Swolf: Your swolf score is the sum of the time for one
pool length and the number of strokes for that length.
For example, 30 seconds plus 15 strokes equals a
swolf score of 45. For open water swimming, swolf
is calculated over 25 meters. Swolf is a measurement
of swimming efficiency and, like golf, a lower score is
better.
Critical swim speed (CSS): Your CSS is the theoretical
speed that you can maintain continuously without
exhaustion. You can use your CSS to guide your
training pace and monitor your improvement.
Stroke Types
Stroke type identification is available only for pool
swimming. Your stroke type is identified at the end of
a length. Stroke types appear in your swimming history
and in your Garmin Connect account. You can also select
stroke type as a custom data field (Customizing the Data
Screens, page46).

Tips for Swimming Activities
• Press LAP to record an interval during open water
swimming.
• Before starting a pool swimming activity, follow the on-
screen instructions to select your pool size or enter a
custom size.
The watch measures and records distance by
completed pool lengths. The pool size must be correct
to display accurate distance. The next time you start a
pool swimming activity, the watch uses this pool size.
You can hold MENU, select the activity settings, and
select Pool Size to change the size.
• For accurate results, swim the entire pool length, and
use one stroke type for the entire length. Pause the
activity timer when resting.
• Press LAP to record a rest during pool swimming (Auto
Rest and Manual Rest, page11).
The device automatically records swim intervals and
lengths for pool swimming.
• To help the device count your lengths, use a strong
push off the wall and glide before your first stroke.
• When doing drills, you must either pause the activity
timer or use the drill logging feature (Training with the
Drill Log, page11).
Auto Rest and Manual Rest
NOTE: Swim data is not recorded during a rest. To view
other data screens, you can press UP or DOWN.
The auto rest feature is available only for pool swimming.
Your watch automatically detects when you are resting,
and the rest screen appears. If you rest for more than 15
seconds, the watch automatically creates a rest interval.
When you resume swimming, the watch automatically
starts a new swim interval. You can turn on the auto rest
feature in the activity options (Activities and App Settings,
page45).
TIP: For best results using the auto rest feature, minimize
your arm motions while resting.
During a pool or open water swim activity, you can
manually mark a rest interval by pressing LAP.
Training with the Drill Log
The drill log feature is available only for pool swimming.
You can use the drill log feature to manually record kick
sets, one-arm swimming, or any type of swimming that is
not one of the four major strokes.
