Using the Polar Weight Management Product in Water Environment

Your Polar Weight Management Product is water resistant to 160 feet/50 meters.

Users measuring their heart rate in water may experience interference for the following reasons:

Pool water with a high chlorine content and seawater are very conductive. This may cause a short circuit in the electrodes of the transmitter, which prevents ECG signals from being detected by the transmitter unit.

Jumping into water or strenuous muscle movement during competitive swimming may cause water resistance that shifts the transmitter on the body to a location where it is not possible to pick up ECG signals.

The ECG signal strength depends on the individual and also varies depending on an individual’s tissue composition. The percentage of people who have problems in heart rate measuring is considerably higher in water than in other use.

Do not press the buttons of the wrist unit under water.

7.2MINIMIZING POSSIBLE RISKS OF THE WEIGHT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

The Polar Weight Management Progam is not targeted at those who are underweight (BMI less than 18.5) or severely obese (BMI over 35). If you have obesity-related diseases or other medical conditions, you are advised to consult your physician, nurse, or physiotherapist before starting any exercise. Too rapid weight loss (more than 4,4 lbs/2 kg per week) is not recommended. Steady weight loss with small changes in nutrition and physical activity ensures the best and longest results. If you experience any atypical symptoms related to digestion or body fluid balance, heart symptoms, or disorders in your joints or ligaments during the Program, we recommend you consult medical personnel. The Program is not recommended for use during pregnancy.

Exercise may include some risk, especially for those who have been sedentary. Before starting a regular exercise program, it is recommended that you answer the following questions about your health status. If the answer is yes to any of these questions, we recommend that you consult a doctor before starting an exercise program.

• Have you not exercised for the past 5 years?
