1. HOW THE POLAR HEART RATE MONITOR WORKS
Polar WearLink™ Transmitter:
Electrode areas | L |
| R |
Connector
Polar WearLink Strap
1.Moisten the electrode areas of the strap under running water and make sure that it is well moistened.
2.Attach the connector to the strap. Position the connector’s
letter R to the word RIGHT on the strap and snap the fastener.
4.Check that the wet electrode areas are firmly against your skin and that the Polar logo of the connector is in a central, upright position. It is important that the electrode areas are wet during exercise.
It is recommended that you wear the transmitter against your bare skin to ensure flawless operation. However, if you wish to wear the transmitter over a shirt, moisten the shirt well under the electrodes.
See care instructions of the WearLink Transmitter in chapter 9.
Care and maintenance, page 71.
3.Adjust the strap length to fit snugly and comfortably. Secure the strap around your chest, just below the chest muscles, and snap the second fastener.
