7. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your Polar heart rate monitor is a high-tech instrument and should be treated with care. The suggestions below will help you fulfill the guarantee obligations.

Store your heart rate monitor in a cool and dry place. Do not store them in a damp environment, in non-breathable material (i.e. plastic bag) or with conductive material such as a wet towel.

Service

During the two-year guarantee/warranty period we recommend that you have service done by an authorized Polar Service Center only. The warranty does not cover damage or consequential damage caused by service not authorized by Polar Electro.

Taking Care of Your Polar Heart Rate Monitor

Keep your unit clean. Clean it with a mild soap and water solution. Dry it carefully with a soft towel. Never use alcohol or any abrasive material such as steel wool or cleaning chemicals.

Keep your heart rate monitor out of extreme cold and heat. The operating temperatures are 14 °F to 122 °F/ -10 °C to +50 °C

Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct sunlight for extended periods, such as by leaving it in a car.

Do not bend or stretch the transmitter. This may damage the electrodes.

Do not dry the transmitter in any other way than with a towel. Mishandling may damage the electrodes.
