Forerunner 45 pace view miles instead of Km

Just got my new Forerunner 45, very happy. I used it during my runs last week and figured that although distance shows Km (my preferred unit) , Pace will appear as Miles. I checked Garmin connect on computer and Phone and also on the device itself - units on all is setup for kilometer.

any advice?

THANKS, Noemi

This happened to me for the second time yesterday. The first time it just reset itself after a few days (maybe after people complained). This time I took your tips went into settings and changed to statute, saved and out again, then back in and changed back to metric - which worked!! Didn't work if I just changed and straight back again. Really annoying issue every time it updates (only had my watch 2 months!)

Same for problem here for at least 1 month, already try everything but units stay on miles and hours in 12h format...

Works for me. Version 3.50 set to 12h and UoM Statue (?), reboot watch, then set to 24 h and metric plus reboot and that works for me.

Works after 2 times reboot. Why every time with an SW update?

I have the same problem. Really annoying.

Almost everything on the watch is miles in stead of km.

Things like this should just work! Now I've got to spend hours searching for settings and solutions on the internet.

Really disappointed! Should have bought another brand.

Had the same issue on the time format and on running mode the mile issue. on the Time i switch 12h and switch off watch and switch on back and then switch back to the 24h and it changes my time in 24h mode. Done the same with the units will see when i go for a jog next time.

Thanks for the advice

much appreciated

My problem is exactly the same as yours. I also can only see metric and statute on watch. I selected metric. My watch is a Hong Kong model.

I want to change the watch to km.
