Troubleshooting

Device won't turn on

Ensure the device is charged. Connect it to the charger and wait a few minutes before attempting to power it on again. Check the charging cable and power source.

Ensure the dive mode is properly activated and configured. Perform a manual sensor check through the device settings. If the issue persists, contact Garmin support.
