GET STARTED

SET UP YOUR A370

When you get hold of your new A370, it’s in storage mode. It wakes up when you plug it into a computer for setup or a USB charger for charging. We recommend that you charge the battery before you start using your A370. If the battery is completely empty, it takes a couple of minutes for the charging to start. See Batteries for detailed information on charging the battery, battery operating times and low battery notifications.

CHOOSE ONE OPTION FOR SETUP: COMPUTER OR A COMPATIBLE MOBILE DEVICE

You can choose how to set up your A370, with a computer and a USBcable or wirelessly with a compatible mobile device. Both methods require an Internet connection.
l Mobile setup is convenient if you don't have access to a computer with a USB port, but it might take
longer.
l Wired setup is quicker and you can charge your A370 at the same time, but you need a USB cable and
computer available.

OPTION A: SET UP WITH YOUR COMPUTER

1. Go to flow.polar.com/start and install the FlowSync software to set up your A370 and update the firm-
ware if needed.
2. Push down the top part (A) of the USB cover inside the bracelet to access the micro USB port and plug in the supplied USB cable (B).

3. Plug the other end of the cable into the USB port of your computer for setup and charging the battery
11
(C).
4. Then we’ll walk you through signing up for the Polar Flow web service and personalizing your A370.

When closing the USB cover, make sure it fits flush on the device.
After the setup is done, you’re ready to go. Have fun!

OPTION B: SET UP WITH POLAR FLOW APP USING YOUR MOBILE DEVICE OR TABLET

Polar A370 connects to the Polar Flow mobile app wirelessly via Bluetooth Smart, so remember to have it turned on in your mobile device.
1. To make sure there’s enough charge in your A370 during the mobile setup, just plug the USB cable in a powered USB port or a USB power adapter. Make sure that the adapter is marked with "output 5Vdc" and that it provides a minimum of 500mA. The display begins to show an animated circle with Bluetooth and USB icons.
Don't charge the device when its USB port is wet. If the USB port of your A370 has gotten wet,
let it dry up before plugging in.

Make sure your A370 is powered up in order to make the connection possible.
4. Then create an account or sign in if you already have a Polar account. We’ll walk you through the sign­up and setup within the app. Tap Save and sync when you’ve defined all the settings. Your per­sonalized settings will now be transferred to the bracelet. To get the most accurate and personal activity and training data, it’s important that you’re precise with the settings.

FIRMWARE UPDATE

WITH COMPUTER

You can update the firmware of your A370 yourself to keep it up to date. Whenever a new firmware version is available, FlowSync will notify you when you connect A370 to your computer. The firmware updates are down­loaded via FlowSync.
Firmware updates are performed to improve the functionality of your A370. They can include improvements to existing features, completely new features or bug fixes.
To update the firmware:
1. Plug your A370 to your computer with the USB cable.

synced to the Flow web service.

WITH MOBILE DEVICE OR TABLET

You can also update the firmware with your mobile device if you're using Polar Flow mobile app to sync your A370 training and activity data. The app will let you know if there's an update available and will guide you through it. We recommend you plug in the A370 to a power source before starting the update to ensure flaw­less update operation.
The wireless firmware update may take up to 20 minutes, depending on your connection.

FLIGHT MODE

Flight mode cuts off all wireless communication from your A370. You can still use it, but you can't sync your data with the Polar Flow mobile app or use it with any wireless accessories.
