520 will not stay connected to Bluetooth

My 520 disconnects from my phone every time I turn it off (after each ride). My Iphone still shows connected, but the Garmin shows disconnected. I have had to "forget the phone" and "forget the garmin" and reconnect after every ride. That sucks for a 2 month old unit. Any ideas on a fix? My phone works great with all other Bluetooth connections and it worked great with the 520 for 6 weeks.

Thanks

    I did the same thing a few times and then I realized all I needed to do was open Garmin Connect app on your Iphone after turning on your 520. Mine connects right away after I do that.

    That fix worked for me (opening the Garmin Connect app)!  Thanks!
