Precautions
The Polar cycling computer displays your performance indicators. It indicates the level of physiological strain and intensity during exercise. It also measures speed and distance when cycling with a Polar CS speed sensor W.I.N.D. The Polar CS cadence sensor W.I.N.D. is designed to measure cadence when cycling. The Polar Power Output Sensor is designed to measure power output when cycling. No other use is intended or implied.
The Polar cycling computer should not be used for obtaining environmental measurements that require professional or industrial precision. Furthermore, the device should not be used to obtain measurements when engaged in airborne or underwater activities.
Interference During Exercise
Disturbance may occur near microwave ovens and computers. Also WLAN base stations may cause interference when exercising with CS500. To avoid erratic reading or misbehaviors, move away from possible sources of disturbance.
Minimizing Risks When Exercising
Exercise may include some risk. Before beginning a regular exercise program, it is recommended that you answer the following questions concerning your health status. If you answer yes to any of these questions, we recommend that you consult a doctor before starting any training program.
•Have you been physically inactive for the past 5 years?
•Do you have high blood pressure or high blood cholesterol?
•Do you have symptoms of any disease?
•Are you taking any blood pressure or heart medication?
•Do you have a history of breathing problems?
•Are you recovering from a serious illness or medical treatment?
•Do you use a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device?
•Do you smoke?
•Are you pregnant?
Note that in addition to exercise intensity, medications for heart conditions, blood pressure, psychological conditions, asthma, breathing, etc., as well as some energy drinks, alcohol, and nicotine may also affect heart rate.
It is important to be sensitive to your body’s responses during exercise. If you feel unexpected pain or excessive fatigue when exercising, it is recommended that you stop the exercise or continue at a lighter intensity.
Notice to individuals with pacemakers, defibrillators or other implanted electronic devices. Individuals who have a pacemaker use the Polar cycling computer at their own risk. Before starting use, we always recommend a maximal exercise stress test under a doctor’s supervision. The test is to ensure the safety and reliability of the simultaneous use of the pacemaker and the Polar cycling computer.
