Changing Batteries

The FT80 training computer and the Polar H1
heart rate sensor both have a user changeable
battery. To change the battery yourself, please
follow the instructions carefully as instructed in
chapter Change Batteries Yourself.

Prior to changing the batteries, please note the
following:

• The low battery indicator is displayed when

only 10-15% of the battery capacity is left.

• Excessive use of the backlight drains the

battery more rapidly.

• The backlight and sound are automatically

turned off when the low battery indicator is
displayed. Any alarms set prior to the
appearance of the low battery indicator will
remain active.

• In cold conditions, the low battery indicator

may appear, but will disappear when the
temperature rises.

Important Information 15

Change Batteries Yourself

When changing the battery, make sure the
sealing ring is not damaged, in which case you
should replace it with a new one. You can
purchase the sealing ring/battery kits at
well-equipped Polar retailers and authorized
Polar Services. In the USA and Canada, the
additional sealing rings are available at
authorized Polar Service Centers. In the USA
the sealing ring/battery kits are also available at
www.shoppolar.com.

Keep the batteries away from children. If
swallowed, contact a doctor immediately.

Batteries should be properly disposed of
according to local regulations.

When handling a new, fully charged battery,
avoid clasp-like contact, i.e. simultaneous from
both sides, with metal or electrically conducting
tools, like tweezers. This may short-circuit the
battery causing it to discharge more rapidly.
Typically, short circuiting does not damage the
battery, but it may decrease the capacity and
lifetime of the battery.

16 Important Information

Danger of explosion if the battery is replaced
with wrong type.

Changing Training Computer Battery

Open the battery cover with a coin by turning it from CLOSE

1.

to OPEN (A1).
Remove the battery cover and lift the battery out carefully

2.

with a suitable sized small rigid stick or bar, such as a
toothpick. A non-metal tool is preferable. Be careful not to
damage the metal sound element (*) or the grooves. (A2)
Insert a new battery with the positive (+) side outwards.
Replace the old sealing ring with a new one (if available),

3.

fitting it snugly in the cover groove to ensure water resistance.
Put the cover back on and turn clockwise to CLOSE.

4.

Changing Heart Rate Sensor Battery

1. Lever the battery cover open by using the clip on the strap.
(B1)

2. Remove the old battery from the battery cover with a suitable
sized small ridgid stick or bar, such as a toothpick. A
non-metal tool is preferable. Be careful not to damage the
battery cover.

3. Insert the battery inside the cover with the negative (-) side
outwards. Make sure the sealing ring is in the groove to ensure
water resistance.

4. Align the ledge on the battery cover with the slot on the
connector and press the battery cover back into place. You
should hear a snap.

ENGLISH

Important Information 17

Precautions

The Polar training computer shows your
performance indicators. It indicates the level of
physiological strain and intensity during your
training session. No other use is intended or
implied.

Minimizing Risks When Training

Training may include some risk. Before
beginning a regular training program, answer
the following questions concerning your health
status. If you answer yes to any of these
questions, consult a physician before starting
any training program.

• Have you been physically inactive for the past
5 years?

• Do you have high blood pressure or high blood
cholesterol?

• Are you taking any blood pressure or heart
medication?

• Do you have a history of breathing problems?

• Do you have symptoms of any disease?

• Are you recovering from a serious illness or
medical treatment?

• Do you use a pacemaker or other implanted
electronic device?

18 Important Information

• Do you smoke?

• Are you pregnant?

In addition to exercise intensity, medications for
heart conditions, blood pressure, psychological
conditions, asthma, breathing, etc., as well as
some energy drinks, alcohol, and nicotine may
also affect heart rate.

It is important to be sensitive to your body’s
responses during exercise. If you feel

unexpected pain or excessive fatigue when
exercising, it is recommended that you stop
the exercise or continue at a lighter
intensity.

Note! If you are using a pacemaker, you can

use Polar training computers. In theory
interference to pacemaker caused by Polar
products should not be possible. In practice no
reports exist to suggest anyone ever having
experienced interference. We cannot however
issue an official guarantee on our products'
suitability with all pacemakers or other
implanted devices due to the variety of devices
available. If you have any doubts, or if you
experience any unusual sensations while using
Polar products, please consult your physician or
contact the implanted electronic device

manufacturer to determine safety in your case.

If you are allergic to any substance that
comes into contact with your skin or if you
suspect an allergic reaction due to using the
product, check the listed materials in

Technical Specifications. To avoid any skin
reaction to the heart rate sensor, wear it over a
shirt, but moisten the shirt well under the
electrodes to ensure flawless operation.

The combined impact of moisture and intense
abrasion may cause a black color to come off the
heart rate sensor’s surface, possibly staining
light-colored clothes. If you use perfume or insect
repellent on your skin, you must ensure that it does
not come into contact with the training computer or
the heart rate sensor.

Training equipment with electronic
components may cause interfering stray
signals. To tackle these problems, try the

following:

Remove the heart rate sensor from your

1.

chest and use the training equipment as you
would normally.

ENGLISH

Move the wrist unit around until you find an

2.

area in which it displays no stray reading or
does not flash the heart symbol.
Interference is often worst right in front of
the display panel of the equipment, while
the left or right side of the display is
relatively free of disturbance.
Put the heart rate sensor back on your chest

3.

and keep the wrist unit in this
interference-free area as much as possible.

If the FT80 still does not work, the piece of
equipment may be electrically too noisy for
wireless heart rate measurement.

FT80 may be worn when swimming. To

maintain water resistance, do not press

buttons under water. For more information,
