How Do I Turn Off My Oximeter?

Published in Fitness Trackers 1 min read

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:

  1. From the pulse oximeter widget on your device, press and hold the MENU button.
  2. Select Options.
  3. Choose Pulse Ox Mode.
  4. 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.
