My Garmin Instinct 2 screen froze Sunday before a run, and even though there’s a surprisingly simple fix, it took me a while to find it. So, here it is, in case you need it.

To reset the Garmin Instinct 2, hold down the CTRL key for about 15 seconds. The screen will turn off, and after a few moments, it will come back, showing the Garmin logo. If it doesn’t open your selected watch face from there, just press CTRL again for a few seconds.

This was the very first time I had any problems with my Instinct 2. It’s remarkable how reliable this watch is. I love it and stand by everything I said in my first impressions video below.
