About the Battery

warning This product contains a lithium-ion battery. See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the product box for product warnings and other important information. The Edge is powered by a built-in, lithium-ion battery that you can recharge using the AC charger or the USB cable included in the product box. NOTE: The Edge will not charge when outside the temperature range of 32F to 122F (0C to 50C).
Charging the Edge notice To prevent corrosion, thoroughly dry the mini-USB port, the weather cap, and the surrounding area before charging or connecting to a computer. 1. Plug the AC charger into a standard wall outlet. 2. Pull up the weather cap from the mini-USB port.
3. Plug the small end of the AC charger into the mini-USB port. To connect the Edge to your computer using the USB cable, see page 8. 4. Charge the Edge for at least three hours before you begin using it. A fully charged battery can run for up to 18 hours before it must be recharged.

Installing the Edge

For the best GPS reception, position the bike mount so the front of the Edge is oriented toward the sky. You can install the bike mount on the stem (shown on page 3) or the handlebars.
Tabs Mini-USB port under the weather cap
1. Select a suitable and secure location to mount the Edge where it does not interfere with safe operation of your bike.
2. Place the rubber disk on the back of the bike mount. The rubber tabs align with the back of the bike mount so it stays in place. 3. Place the bike mount on the bike stem. 4. Attach the bike mount securely using the two bands.

Edge 500 Owners Manual23

About Heart Rate Zones caution Consult your physician to specify heart rate zones that are appropriate for your fitness level and health condition. Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and increase their cardiovascular strength and improve their level of fitness. A heart rate zone is a specified range of heartbeats per minute. The five commonly accepted heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5 according to increasing intensity. How do heart rate zones affect your fitness goals? Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and improve your fitness by understanding and applying these principles: Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity. Training in specific 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.

Edge 500 Owners Manual27

1. Turn on the Edge. 2. Bring the Edge within range (3m) of the GSC10. 3. Press and hold MENU. 4. Select Settings > Bike Settings > [Bike 1] > ANT+ Spd/Cad. 5. Select Yes > Rescan. 6. Press BACK to return to the main menu. When the GSC10 is paired, a message appears and the cadence icon appears on the main menu. 7. Customize optional data fields (page 37). 8. Go for a ride.

Using the GSC10

About the GSC10 Cadence data from the GSC10 is always recorded. If there is no GSC10 paired, GPS data is used to calculate 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 GSC10: one for cadence and one for speed. For information about cadence alerts, see page 9. Non-Zero Averaging for Cadence Data The non-zero data-averaging setting is available if you are training with an optional cadence sensor. The default setting is to exclude zero values that occur when you are not pedaling.
To turn the non-zero averaging on or off, press and hold MENU, and select Settings > Bike Settings > Data Avg.
Replacing the GSC10 Battery
The GSC10 contains a userreplaceable CR2032 battery. Note: Contact your local waste disposal department to properly dispose of batteries. 1. Locate the circular battery cover on the side of the GSC10.
Battery cover CR2032 battery
2. Use a coin to twist the cover counter-clockwise until it is loose enough to remove (arrow points to unlocked). 3. Remove the cover and battery. 4. Wait 30 seconds. 5. Insert the new battery with the positive side facing up. Note: Be careful not to damage or lose the O-ring gasket on the cover. 6. Use a coin to twist the cover back into place (arrow points to locked).

Third-Party ANT+ Sensors
For a list of third-party ANT+ sensors that are compatible with the Edge, go to www.garmin.com/intosports. Calibrating Your Power Meter For calibration instructions specific to your power meter, refer to the manufacturers instructions. Before you can calibrate your power meter, it must be properly installed and actively recording data. 1. Press and hold MENU. 2. Select Settings > Bike Settings > [Bike 1] > ANT+ Power > Calibrate. 3. Keep your power meter active by pedaling until the message appears.
Viewing Your Power Zones You can set seven custom power zones using Garmin Connect or Garmin Training Center. If you know your FTP (functional threshold power) value, you can enter it and allow the software to calculate your power zones automatically. 1. Press and hold MENU. 2. Select Settings > Bike Settings > [Bike 1] > Power Zones. Non-Zero Averaging for Power Data The non-zero data-averaging setting is available if you are training with an optional power meter.
