How to pair HRM swim with Garmin Instinct 2s solar surf

Hello

since the Garmin Instinct 2s solar surf doesn’t track heart rates during swimming (a surf watch that doesn’t work properly in water, really!!!??) I bought the HRM Swim Tracker to compensate for the lack and get useful stats. The watch keeps telling me I should do aerobic exercise but ignores that I swim 2 or 3k every morning.

I can’t gget the HRM band to pair either with the watch or with the Garmin app directly

Can someone please help me out?

Thanks
Francesca

It does (if you enable it in the settings)

Only HRM-Pro and HRM-Fit can be connected to the app directly. As for adding a HRM strap to Instinct 2, the instructions are in the manual:

Thank you Trux

I was able to pair the hrm with the watch!

I will try to see what happens with the watch alone enabling it since the band isn’t very comfortable
