Calibrating the Polar S1 foot pod

It is recommended that you calibrate the foot pod when; you use it for the first time, there are significant changes in your running style or the position of the foot pod on the shoe is dramatically changed.

Note that if you want calibration settings for walking, it is recommended that you calibrate the foot pod by walking.

You can calibrate the S1 foot pod by running a preset distance; for example, three laps on a 400-meter track, at a steady pace or by manually adjusting the calibration factor.

Calibration by running

If you start from the Time of Day display, repeat steps 1-5.
