Device Features
You can swipe left or right to scroll through the features on your device.
Icons represent many of the features available. A flashing icon means the
device is searching for a compatible sensor, such as a bike speed sensor or
heart rate monitor. A solid icon means the sensor is paired.
NOTE: Some features may not be available. You can enable these features
by customizing the screens your device displays (Device Settings, page 4).
Time and date| The current time of day and date is based on your location.
The device updates the time and date when you synchronize your device to a
mobile device, or you can set the time manually.

About Heart Rate Zones
Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and increase their
cardiovascular strength and improve their level of fitness. A heart rate zone
is a set range of heartbeats per minute. The five commonly accepted heart rate
zones are numbered from 1 to 5 according to increasing intensity. Generally,
heart rate zones are calculated based on percentages of your maximum heart
rate.
Fitness Goals
Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and improve your fitness by
understanding and applying these principles.
- Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.
- Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve cardiovascular capacity and strength.
- Knowing your heart rate zones can prevent you from overtraining and can decrease your risk of injury.
If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table (Heart Rate Zone
Calculations, page 6) to determine the best heart rate zone for your fitness
objectives.
If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the calculators
available on the Internet. Some gyms and health centers can provide a test
that measures maximum heart rate. The default maximum heart rate is 220 minus
your age.
VIRB Remote
The VIRB remote function allows you to control your VIRB action camera from a
distance. Go to www.garmin.com/VIRB to purchase
a VIRB action camera.
Controlling a VIRB Action Camera
Before you can use the VIRB remote function, you must enable the remote
setting on your VIRB camera. See the VIRB Series Owner’s Manual for more
information. You must also enable the VIRB screen on your vívosmart device
(Device Settings, page 4).
- Turn on your VIRB camera.

PURPOSE, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE. THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL
RIGHTS, WHICH MAY VARY FROM STATE TO STATE.
IN NO EVENT SHALL Garmin BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER RESULTING FROM THE USE, MISUSE, OR INABILITY TO
USE THIS PRODUCT OR FROM DEFECTS IN THE PRODUCT. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE
EXCLUSION OF INCIDENTAL OR

Garmin retains the exclusive right to repair or replace (with a new or newly-
overhauled replacement product) the device or software or offer a full refund
of the purchase price at its sole discretion. SUCH REMEDY SHALL BE YOUR SOLE
AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY BREACH OF WARRANTY.
To obtain warranty service, contact your local Garmin authorized dealer or
call Garmin Product Support for shipping instructions and an RMA tracking
number. Securely pack the device and a copy of the original sales receipt,
which is required as the proof of purchase for warranty repairs. Write the
tracking number clearly on the outside of the package. Send the device,
freight charges prepaid, to any Garmin warranty service station.
Online Auction Purchases: Products purchased through online auctions are
not eligible for rebates or other special offers from Garmin warranty
coverage. Online auction confirmations are not accepted for warranty
verification. To obtain warranty service, an original or copy of the sales
receipt from the original retailer is required. Garmin will not replace
missing components from any package purchased through an online auction.
International Purchases: A separate warranty may be provided by
international distributors for devices purchased outside the United States
depending on the country. If applicable, this warranty is provided by the
local in-country distributor and this distributor provides local service for
your device. Distributor warranties are only valid in the area of intended
distribution. Devices purchased in the United States or Canada must be
returned to the Garmin service center in the United Kingdom, the United
States, Canada, or Taiwan for service.
Australian Purchases: Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be
excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement
or refund for a major failure and for compensation for any other reasonably
foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired
or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does
not amount to a major failure. The benefits under our Limited Warranty are in
addition to other rights and remedies under applicable law in relation to the
products. Garmin Australasia, 30 Clay Place, Eastern Creek, NSW, Australia,
