How to get started
Set up your new Polar M460 in the Polar Flow web service. The M460 is in storage mode, and it wakes up in the setup. To get the most accurate and personal training data, it’s important that you’re precise with the settings in the setup.
1.Go to flow.polar.com/start and download the Polar FlowSync software, which you need to connect your M460 to the Flow web service.
2.Open the installation package and follow the on-screen instructions for installing the software.
3.Once the installation is complete, FlowSync opens automatically and asks you to connect your Polar product.
4.Plug in your M460 to your computer’s USB port with the USB cable. It may take a few minutes for your M460 to wake up and start charging. Let your computer install any suggested USB drivers.
5.The Flow web service will be opened automatically in your internet browser. Create a Polar account or sign in if you already have one.
6.Click Done to synchronize your settings between the M460 and the Polar Flow web service. FlowSync status will change to completed, once the synchronization is done.
7.If there’s a firmware update available for your M460, we recommend you install it during the setup.
Do not charge the device when the USB port is wet.

Bike mount
You can install the bike mount either on the stem of your bike, or on the left or right hand side of the handle bar.
1.Place the rubber base on the stem/handlebar.
2.Position the bike mount on the rubber base so that the
POLAR logo is in line with the handlebar.
3.Secure the bike mount onto the stem/handlebar with the O-ring.
4.Align the ledges on the back of the M460 with the slots on the bike mount and turn clockwise until the M460 is in place.
H10 heart rate sensor
Wear the comfortable strap and connector around your chest to get your heart rate accurately and in real time on your M460.
* If you bought your M460 without a heart rate sensor, not to worry, you can buy one at any time.
1. Moisten the electrode area of the strap.
2.Clip the strap around your chest and adjust the strap to fit snugly.
3. Attach the connector.
4.Before your first training session, you need to pair the heart rate sensor with your M460. Wear your heart rate sensor and press
START. Then wait for the sensor pairing request and choose Yes.
You can also pair a new sensor in Settings > General settings> Pair and sync > Pair other device.
After training, detach the heart rate sensor connector and rinse the strap under running water to keep it clean. For more detailed instructions, see the M460 support pages at support.polar.com/ en/M460.
Training with your M460
Press START and choose your sport. Go outdoors and away from tall buildings and trees to catch the GPS satellite signals. Keep your M460 still with the display facing upwards until it finds the GPS satellite signal. When the signal is found, OK is displayed.
Press START again when you’re ready to go.
Choose your favorite sports and the information you want to follow during your sessions in the Polar Flow app or web service.
