Hi! I am sorry, but it was a gift to somebody else, so I can say nothing. I didn't hear any complain. Sorry again that I couldn't help.

there is a small rubber plug on the right side of the watch from the front view. The difficulty that I experienced was setting the language. Got it done but don't really know what I did. Hope you don't have the same problem

BTW, you reminded me of how much I hate this pedometer...and I wore my HJ-720 EVERYDAY for those five years and now I go sometimes a week or two "forgetting." Well...I stand behind my testimony and went and ordered it instead, refund from Omron be damned, I am getting the pedometer I love and would highly recommend it over this one and have recommended it to friend after friend...It was $35 and since I paid with Discover bonus points, it was basically "free" to my mind. Best wishes...

Im surprised the battery only lasted 2 years! That's rediculous! I would contact Garmin and see if they will fix the watch for you.

Monica, I purchased the watch and couldn't read or understand the directions. I still have the watch and its looking at me right now in the box it can in. My directions only came in spanish

sorry, it's been a while since I set the clock, but I do remember that I had to set the analog clock manually (i.e. set it digitally and have the hands then move automatically to match the digitally set time)...You could also try their customer support, however, at the time I was doing my setting-up, they were surprisingly unknowledgeable about this specific model, as it was new.

Hey Annie.Yeah it is really simple to use. You just select run. This will give you the option to turn on the GPS, the heart rate monitor and or the foot pod and press ok. It will link your sensors and get a GPS signal, which normally takes anywhere from 10 secs to a minute. Click start and away you go! I really like my watch. I'd recommend them for sure. Tapping the front of it doesn't always light up the display though which is slightly annoying. But other than that it's great.

It depends on what you want from your Garmin watch. I wanted to know the distance to the green, period. I can estimate on my own how far it is to the dogleg, don't want to mess around with settings on the course, etc. I just want to look at my wrist and know the distance to the green, and it's very accurate for that.

First let me say I like the watch and use it 5 days a week for my 2 mile walk. I like to time my walk and improve on it, also my doctor wanted me to get my pulse rate up. I did try using the total workout feature a few times but could not believe the calorie burn rate. I walk at the YMCA and use their fit-linx computer and it gives a much higher believable number. I'm glad I got this watch!

You need to be more specific with your questions. Your best bet is to find and download the user's manual. It will give you specific instructions. However, I wouldn't recommend this watch - at least not based on my experience. Its performance (as a heart monitor) is inconsistent - sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Same as below, adjust the sensitivity in the set up process. It is not perfect, running on the treadmill with my watch hand holding my hair off my neck and it missed counting steps. Pretty accurate though!

The watch I bought came with directions. You must set the hands and voice times separately

I do walk/run as well. The watch tracks distance, elevation, and pace speed. If you are behind, on, or ahead of the pace you set, the watch will alarm, and show which you are. Good Luck!!

Bonnie, obviously you must have a defective watch. I have two of them and they both work fine after 6 months to a year. Good luck to you. Smile

What are u trying to do. The watch do sent do everything they say it dose. You can basically only talk on it or listen to the radio. To set it up to your phone you have to bluetooth it.
