Daily Use
Your Polar AW200 Activity Watch can be worn on the wrist at all times. Not only does it tell you the time of day and date, but the surrounding temperature and air pressure trend (BARO), as well, helping you keep track of any changes in the weather.
Altitude Measurement
Altitude measurement relies on a simple principle: atmospheric pressure decreases as elevation increases.
For accurate altitude readings, the device needs to be calibrated first.
Altitude Calibration
To calibrate the altimeter, check your current altitude on a topographic map of your area. Alternatively, calibrate the barometer instead. For this, see 'Barometer Calibration'.
1.Go to ALTIBARO mode. If the display shows BARO mode, press START twice to Activate ALTIMETER. If you are already in ALTI mode, proceed to step 2.
2.Press START and UP to go to Altitude CALIBRATION and press START. The value on the display starts flashing.
3.Enter the correct altitude (M / FT).
4.Calibration OK is displayed for three seconds before the display returns to ALTI mode.
