Hi there

Perhaps your EPO is not updated, you can test that by doing the following:

From the watch face, press and hold the Up/Menu button.
Select Settings.
Select About.
Scroll down to last page to view EPO status (you have to press the down key around +10 times (mine is 15 times)

If expired then you got tree options

1) Install Garmin Connect on your mobile device and sync.

2) Install Garmin Connect on your compmuter and sync.

3) Start a new activity and wait for turning green (this can take up to 20 minutes).

Using Mobile/Computer pre-fetches the calculated satelites positions.

Perhaps following the instructions in the manual is already helpful:
