Using Accessories
Foot Pod
Your Forerunner is compatible with
the foot pod. You can use the foot
pod to send data for your Forerunner
when training indoors or when your
GPS signal is weak or you lose
satellite signals. The foot pod is
on standby and ready to send data
(like the heart rate monitor). You
must pair the foot pod with your
Forerunner. See page 33.
Calibrating the Foot Pod
Calibrating your foot pod is optional
and can improve accuracy. There are
three ways to adjust the calibration:
distance, GPS, and manual.
Distance Calibration
For best results, the foot pod should
be calibrated using the inside lane of
a regulation track. A regulation track
(2 laps = 800 m) is more accurate
than a treadmill.
