About Heart Rate Zones
CAUTION
Consult your physician to specify heart
rate zones that are appropriate for your
tness level and health condition.
Many athletes use heart rate zones
to measure and increase their
cardiovascular strength and improve
their level of tness. A heart rate zone
is a specied range of heartbeats per
minute. The ve commonly accepted
heart rate zones are numbered from 1
to 5 according to increasing intensity.
How do heart rate zones affect your
tness goals? Knowing your heart
rate zones can help you measure and
improve your tness by understanding
and applying these principles:
Your heart rate is a good measure of
exercise intensity.
Training in specic 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.
Replacing the Heart Rate
Monitor Battery (SS)
The heart rate monitor contains a
user-replaceable CR2032 battery.
NOTE: Contact your local waste
disposal department to properly
dispose of batteries.

the speed and distance.
Cadence is your rate of pedaling or
“spinning” measured by the number of
revolutions of the crank arm per minute
(rpm). There are two sensors on the
GSC 10: one for cadence and one for
speed.
For information about cadence alerts,
see page 6.
Non-Zero Averaging for
Cadence Data

Position the heart rate monitor on your back instead of your
chest.
Wear a cotton shirt or wet your shirt if suitable for your
activity. Synthetic fabrics that rub or ap against the heart
rate monitor can create static electricity that interferes with
heart rate signals.
Move away from sources of strong electromagnetic elds
and some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors, which can interfere
with your heart rate monitor. Sources of interference
may include high-voltage power lines, electric motors,
microwave ovens, 2.4 GHz cordless phones, and wireless
LAN access points.

Troubleshooting
Problem Solution
The buttons do not
respond. How do I
reset the Edge?
Press and hold POWER, MENU, and RESET simultaneously
to reset the Edge.
NOTE: This does not erase any of your data or settings.
I want to clear all the
user data from my
Edge.
1. Turn off the Edge.
2. Press and hold POWER and RESET until the message
appears.
3. Select Yes to clear all user data.
NOTE: This deletes all user-entered information, but it does not
delete your history.
My Edge does not
acquire satellite
signals.
1. Take your Edge out of parking garages and away from tall
buildings and trees.
2. Turn on the Edge.
3. Remain stationary for several minutes.
The battery gauge
does not seem
accurate.
Allow the Edge battery to fully discharge, and then fully charge
the battery (without interrupting the charge cycle).
The battery does not
last long.
Reduce the backlight time (page 49).
How do I know my
Edge is in USB mass
storage mode?
You should see a new removable disk drive in My Computer
on Windows computers and a mounted volume on Mac
computers.

Problem Solution
My Edge is connected
to the computer, but it
will not go into mass
storage mode.
You may have loaded a corrupted le.
1. Disconnect the Edge from your computer.
2. Turn off the Edge.
3. Press and hold MENU while you connect the Edge to your
computer.
Continue pressing MENU for 10 seconds or until the Edge
goes into mass storage mode.
I cannot see any new
removable drives in
my list of drives.
If you have several network drives mapped on your computer,
Windows may have trouble assigning drive letters to your
Garmin drives. See the Help le for your operating system to
learn how to assign drive letters.
My course le was
renamed.
You can load .tcx and .crs les to the Edge. When you select
the course for any reason, the le is converted to a .t course
le.
Some of my data is
missing from my
Edge history.
When the Edge memory is full, it will no longer record data.
Transfer data to your computer regularly to avoid losing data.
I need to replace the
bands for the mount.
Go to http://buy.garmin.com, or contact your Garmin dealer.
Purchase bands made of EPDM only.
