To turn off your oximeter (specifically referring to deactivating the pulse oximeter feature on a Garmin device based on the reference information), follow these steps:
- From the pulse oximeter widget on your device, press and hold the MENU button.
- Select Options.
- Choose Pulse Ox Mode.
- Select Off.
This will disable automatic pulse oximeter readings. Your device will only initiate a pulse oximeter reading when you actively view the pulse oximeter widget.
