How to Reset Montana 710 or 760 Series Device

There are a few instances in which it is necessary to perform a full reset on a Montana® 700 series outdoor handheld, including the following:

• Not receiving a satellite signal
• Restoring the factory default settings
• Not functioning properly

The information and steps below will walk you through backing up your data and resetting.

Before Resetting

Performing a full reset can cause user data loss. User data is waypoints, routes, tracks, activities and geocaches.

It is recommended to back up important data with BaseCamp™ software before resetting. For steps, see Related.

Note: The Montana 710i and 760i outdoor handhelds back up data to your Garmin Explore™ Website account via the Garmin Explore™ App. You can still back up data with BaseCamp software though.

If removing data is desired to eliminate corrupt data or free up space, see Related.

Performing a Full Reset

1. Power off the Montana
2. Press and hold Power until the LED becomes red, then release
3. Double-tap Power to start the reset
   • The screen will indicate it is resetting and display the progress, then shut off
4. Power the Montana back on normally
5. Select your language
   • The Montana 710i and 760i handhelds will display the option to Activate or Skip, select Skip. You will then need to re-pair and sync with the Garmin Explore app

The Montana handheld is now reset and ready for use.
