9. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your Polar Heart Rate Monitor is a high-tech instrument of superior design and workmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions below will help you fulfill the warranty obligations and enjoy this product for many years to come.

9.1 TAKING CARE OF YOUR POLAR HEART RATE MONITOR

Connector

Clean the connector regularly after use with a mild soap and water solution.

Never use alcohol or any abrasive material such as steel wool or cleaning chemicals on any part of the transmitter.

Do not dry the connector in any other way than with a towel. Rough handling may damage it.

Never put the connector in a washing machine or a drier!

Strap

You can wash the strap in a washing machine at 104 º F/ +40 ºC. We recommend that you use a washing pouch.

We recommend that you wash the strap after each time you have used it in pool water with a high chlorine content.

Do not spin-dry the strap!

Do not put the strap in a dryer!

Do not iron the strap!

Maintenance

Store your transmitter in a cool and dry place. Do not store it in any kind of non-breathing material, such as a plastic bag or a

sports bag, if it is wet. Sweat and moisture can keep its electrodes wet and the transmitter activated, which shortens the battery life.

Keep your transmitter out of extreme cold (below 14 ºF/ -10 ºC) and heat (above 122 ºF/ +50 ºC).

Do not expose transmitter to direct sunlight for extended periods, such as by leaving it in a car.

9.2 BATTERIES

Transmitter

The estimated average battery life of Polar WearLink Transmitter is 2 years (1h/day, 7 days/week). If your transmitter stops working, it might be due to the battery running out. We recommend that you have the battery replaced by an authorized Polar Service Center only.

You can, however, change the battery of the Polar WearLink Transmitter yourself by following the instructions below. To change the battery, you need a coin, sealing ring (some included in the product package) and battery (CR2025).

1.Open the connector’s battery cover by turning it counter- clockwise with the coin from the CLOSE position to the OPEN position. The cover pops out a little from its niche.

2.Remove the battery cover from the connector, lift the battery from the niche with your fingers and replace it with a new battery.

3.Remove the sealing ring of the battery cover and replace it with a new ring.
