Precautions
The RCX5 training computer shows your performance indicators. Polar training computer is designed to indicate the level of physiological strain and recovery during and after exercise session. It measures heart rate, speed and distance when cycling with a Polar CS speed sensor W.I.N.D. It also measures speed and distance when running with a Polar s3+ stride sensor or with a Polar G5 GPS sensor / Polar G3 GPS sensor W.I.N.D.. The Polar CS cadence sensor W.I.N.D. is designed to measure cadence when cycling. No other use is intended or implied.
The Polar RCX5 training computer should not be used for obtaining environmental measurements that require professional or industrial precision.
Interference During Exercise
