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.
