times or intervals but they won’t be recorded into the file.

HRmax-p: Predicted maximum heart

rate value.

Interval, Int: Options mode: indicates Interval Training Set. Exercise mode: Indicates interval exercise session including warm-up, interval and cool-down phases. InZone/ Above/ Below: Indicate the time spent within, above and below the target zone.

KCal: Indicates the energy expenditure of your exercise. Lap time: lap time.

LAPS: indicates how many lap times have been stored.

Lim High: The higher heart rate limit of the target zone.

Lim Low: The lower heart rate limit of the target zone.

Limits1, 2, 3: Heart rate limits for Target Zones 1, 2 and 3.

MAX: Together with a heart rate reading indicates the highest heart rate.

MAX %: Together with a heart rate

reading indicates what percentage your current heart rate is of your maximum heart rate.

Odometer: Measures cumulative total distance of several exercise sessions.

OPTIONS: Indicates the Options mode.

OwnCal: Calculates energy expenditure during exercise in kilocalories. 1 kilocalorie (kcal) = 1000 calories (cal). You can follow how much energy you lose by exercising Ex. in one exercise session or in a day, week etc. The OwnCal can be used as a dose measure of exercise Ex. in nutrition planning. OwnCal calorie calculation starts when your heart rate reaches 90 bpm or is above 60% of your maximum heart rate, whichever is smaller. These limits are set to count only exercise calories. The higher the heart rate, the faster the energy expenditure. OwnCal is individually calibrated by your preset weight, maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) and maximum heart rate

(HRmax). The most accurate OwnCal is received by entering your clinically measured (in maximal treadmill or

bicycle stress test) VO2max and HRmax into the wrist receiver. Energy

expenditure measurement is most accurate in continuous activities such as cycling and running. OwnINDEX: Result of Polar Fitness Test and comparable score with maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max ) in

ml/kg/min.

RecoDist, distance-based

recovery: You set the recovery distance in the Options mode. In the File mode you will see the drop in your heart rate and the recovery distance.

RecoHr, Heart-rate-based

recovery: You set the heart rate, which will end your recovery calculation. In the File mode you will see the drop in your heart rate and the recovery duration.

RecoTime, time-based recovery: You set the recovery time in the Options mode. In the File mode you will see the drop in your heart rate and the recovery duration.

Split Time: The elapsed time from the beginning of the exercise until storing the split time.

Sw: Indicates stopwatch.

Timer1, 2, 3: Interval Training mode: Countdown timers for the Interval Training set.

WarmUp: Warm-up phase in the beginning of an Interval Training exercise.
