detailed instructions.

Polar recycles used transmitters.

POLAR WRIST RECEIVER

The estimated average battery life of the Polar wrist

receiver is 1 year in normal use (2h/day, 7 days a week).

Note also that excessive use of the backlight and the alarm

signals will use the battery more rapidly.

Do not open the Polar wrist receiver yourself. To ensure the

water resistance properties and the use of qualified

components, the wrist receiver battery should be replaced

only by an authorised Polar Service Center. At the same

time a full periodic check of the Polar Heart Rate Monitor

will be done.

instructions.

SERVICE

Should your Polar Heart Rate Monitor need service, see

Customer Care Charter to contact an authorised Polar

Service Center.

Water resistance cannot be guaranteed after

unauthorised service.

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.

TAKING CARE OF YOUR POLAR

HEART RATE MONITOR

• Wash the transmitter regularly after use with a mild soap

and water solution. Dry it carefully after washing.

• Never store the transmitter wet. Sweat and moisture can

keep its electrodes wet and the transmitter activated,

which shortens the battery life.

• Store your Polar Heart Rate Monitor 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.

• Do not bend or stretch the transmitter. This may damage

the electrodes.

• Don’t dry the transmitter in any other way than with a

towel. Hard-handed handling may damage the

electrodes.

• Keep your Polar Heart Rate Monitor out of extreme cold

(below -10 ºC / 14 ºF) and heat (above 50 ºC / 122 ºF).

• Do not expose the Polar Heart Rate Monitor to direct

sunlight for extended periods, such as by leaving it in a

car.
