GETTING GOING

1.Attach the Polar Coded Transmitter to the elastic strap.

2.Adjust the strap length to fit snugly and comfortably. Secure the strap around your chest, below the chest muscles. Lock the buckle.

3.Pull the transmitter off your chest and wet the grooved electrode areas on the back of it.

4.Check that the wet electrode areas are firmly against your skin and the Polar logo is in a central upright position.

5.Wear the wrist receiver as you would wear an ordinary watch.

Alternatively, if you go biking, you may attach the Wrist Receiver to a Polar Bike Mount Polar Books and Accessories. Keep the Wrist Receiver within the transmission range (3 feet / 1 metre).

It is recommended that you wear the transmitter against your bare skin to ensure flawless operation. However, if you wish to wear the transmitter over a shirt, moisten the shirt well under the electrodes.

It is important that the electrodes are wet during the exercise. However, after exercising, take good care of the transmitter to save the electrodes and battery life:

1.Wash the transmitter carefully with mild soap water solution.

2.Rinse it with pure water.

3.Dry the transmitter carefully.
