Wear the Transmitter

Wear the transmitter to measure heart rate.

1.Wet the electrode areas of the strap under running water.

In demanding conditions e.g. during long-lasting events, we recommend using conductive electrode lotion or gel to improve the contact, after which, it is very important to wash the transmitter carefully.

2.Attach the connector to the strap. Adjust the strap length to fit tightly but comfortably.

3.Tie the strap around your chest, just below the chest muscles, and attach the hook to the other end of the strap.

4.Check that the wet electrode areas are firmly against your skin and that the Polar logo of the connector is in a central and upright position.

Detach the connector from the strap when you are not using it to maximize the transmitter lifetime. See detailed washing instructions in Care and Maintenance.

The Polar WearLink transmitter can be used with specific apparel that has built-in soft textile electrodes. Wet the electrode areas of the apparel. Clip the connector of the transmitter straight onto the apparel without the strap so that the connector’s Polar logo is in an upright position.
