# How to pair a Garmin Forerunner 910XT with a power meter

## Step 1. Power on the Garmin Forerunner 910XT

## Step 2. Confirm that the 'Sport' is set to **Bike**

{% hint style="info" %}
 Note: You can identify that the watch is in Bike mode by the cyclist symbol that appears at the bottom of the screen when navigating the settings menu (pressing the Mode button). A symbol of a runner, swimmer or skier indicates that the 'Sport' is incorrectly set.
{% endhint %}

## Step 3. Set 'Sport' to Bike (optional)

* Change **'Power Meter Present'** to **'Yes'**.

## Step 4. Shake the power meter unit to wake it from sleep

**Single power meter present**

**Multiple power meters present**

> Select **'Sensor Details'** and manually enter the Serial Number of the power meter you wish to pair. (The serial number can be found on the packaging in which the power meter was shipped).
