3.2 FUNCTIONS DURING EXERCISE

Checking the Time of Day

Bring the wrist unit near the Polar logo on the transmitter. The time of day is displayed for three seconds. Or you can press the SET button until you see the Time of Day display.

Checking Exercise Duration, Heart Rate Limits and Calories Press the SET button to browse the following information:

Accumulated exercise calories (Cal/Kcal)

Heart rate (bpm or (HR))

If the numbers flash, you are outside your target heart rate zone.

Heart rate limits

Exercise duration (hh:mm ss)

Heart rate limits

Providing that you have set your age in the Basic Settings mode, the unit gives you your personal target heart rate

limits. These are the limits you can see on the upper row of the display. If you have not set your age, you can do it in the Settings mode. For further information on determining your personal target heart rate limits, see the section Target Heart Rate Zone on page 46.

The heart symbol in the line moves according to your heart rate. If there is no heart symbol in the line, your heart rate is either below or above your limits. An alarm sounds when you are outside the limits, if the heart rate zone alarm is on.

Turning the Heart Rate Zone Alarm On or Off

Press and hold the SET button until the alarm is turned on or

off. The alarm symbol

is displayed when the alarm is on.

 

Fitness bullets

 

Time of day

Fitness bullets

There are six fitness bullets. Each represents 10 minutes in the target heart rate zone, equaling one hour in total if all the bullets appear. When you are in the target heart rate zone, the 1st bullet starts to blink. When 10 minutes is up, the next bullet starts to blink and so on. When you are not in the target zone, the blinking bullet disappears.
