You will then get asked to set your personal profile before proceeding to pair the vivosmart HR.  If your vivosmart HR had been paired before with another device, it would be a good idea to turn off and on the vivosmart HR and also turn off and on the Garmin's Bluetooth  to make sure it's not paired with the previous device.
