GETTING STARTED

Charging the Battery

Charge the Forerunner for three hours before using it. When the

battery is fully charged, the battery life is approximately 10 hours. To

avoid corrosion, be sure the Forerunner is completely dry before

charging or connecting to a personal computer.

To charge the Forerunner:

1. Snap the Forerunner into the

charging cradle.

2. Plug the small end of the AC

adapter into the mini-USB port

on the cradle. Plug the other end

into a standard wall outlet.

NOTE: The Forerunner will not charge outside the temperature range of

0°C–50°C (32°F–122°F).

You can also charge the Forerunner by connecting it to your personal

computer with the enclosed USB cable. However, you must install

Garmin Training Center before you connect to your computer. See page

61 to install Garmin Training Center.

GETTING STARTED

Acquiring Satellite

Signals

Before you begin using the

Forerunner, you must acquire

GPS satellite signals. To acquire

satellite signals, go outdoors

away from tall buildings and

trees. Acquiring satellite signals

may take 30–60 seconds.

To acquire satellites:

Go outdoors to an open area and

press the Power button to turn

on the Forerunner.

Wait while the Forerunner

searches for satellites. For best

reception, make sure the GPS

antenna is facing up. Stand still

in an open area, and do not

begin walking or running until

the Locating Satellites page

disappears.

GPS antenna is

located here.

After the Locating Satellites page

disappears, you can begin your

run or other activity.

To turn off GPS and use the

Forerunner indoors, see page 44.

GETTING STARTED

Using the Heart Rate Monitor

NOTE: The heart rate monitor works with the Forerunner 305 only.

Wear the heart rate monitor directly on your skin, just below your

breastplate. It should be snug enough to stay in place during your run.

To position the heart rate monitor:

1. Push one tab on the strap through the slot in the heart rate monitor.

Press the tab down.

sensors

2. Wet both sensors on the back of the heart rate monitor to create a

strong connection between your pulse and the transmitter.

GETTING STARTED

3. Wrap the strap around your

chest and attach it to the

other side of the heart rate

monitor.

NOTE: If you have trouble with

erratic heart rate readings, position

the transmitter on your back instead

of your chest, or try applying

electrode gel.

4. Turn on the Forerunner

and bring it within range (3

meters) of the heart rate

monitor.

The heart rate icon on the Timer

page changes from ﬂashing to

constant when the Forerunner

begins receiving data.

Be sure to move away from other

heart rate monitors while the

Forerunner is trying to “pair” with

your heart rate monitor for the

ﬁrst time. After the Forerunner

pairs with your heart rate monitor,

you can go near other heart rate

monitors. For more information

on pairing and troubleshooting,

see pages 59-60.

GETTING STARTED

Extending the Strap

If the Forerunner strap is not

long enough for your wrist, you

can replace it with the included

extension strap and pin removal

tool.

Pin removal tool

To add the extension strap:

1. Remove the short watch strap

(with the buckle). Use the pin

removal tool to pull one spring

bar back so that it clears

the edge of the case. Then

remove the strap.

2. Install the extension strap.

Place one side of the spring

bar into one pinhole.

3. Compress the spring bar and
