A. GETTING GOING
Heart rate monitor
parts and their
functions
The elastic strap holds
the transmitter
comfortably, yet firmly,
in the correct position.
The Polar T61™
transmitter detects your
heart rate and transmits
it to the wrist receiver.
The Polar wrist receiver
displays your heart rate
and cycling data during
exercise. Enter your
personal settings into the
receiver and analyse the
exercise files after you’re
done.

Useful tips
• Briefly pressing a button (approximately 1 second) will do different
things than pressing and holding the button for a longer period of
time (approximately 2 to 5 seconds). If your press the button for a
longer period of time, you can use shortcuts.
• The buttons are slightly stiffer than those of an ordinary watch to
prevent them from being pressed accidentally.
• You can always return to the Time of day display from the Options
setting or File recalling loops by pressing and holding the stop button.
• See the glossary for display symbols and text interpretation.
Easy start
Installing the Polar Bike Mount
How to prepare the wrist receiver
1. Since the display is blank when the receiver leaves the
factory, you have to activate the wrist receiver by pressing
the OK button twice, after which the Time of day display
appears. This is a one-off procedure; once you have turned
on your receiver you can not turn it off anymore.
2. You may start measuring your heart rate right away
using the default settings. However, the following
settings are ones that it would be useful to change as
soon as possible: Time of day (see section Watch settings)
and personal user settings (see section User information
settings).
3. Polar S510 has various functions that you can use
according to your personal training needs. For more
information, see section Modes and their functions. You
can either manually enter the settings by pressing the
receiver buttons or you can define your settings using PC
Coach Light software, after which the data should be
transferred from your computer to the wrist receiver.
4. Wear the wrist receiver as you would wear an ordinary
watch. If you go biking, we recommend attaching the
wrist receiver to a Polar Bike Mount™.

Use cable ties to secure the bike mount
snugly on the rubber pad.
Attach the receiver by securing the
wrist strap.
Installing the Polar Speed Sensor™
The Polar Speed Sensor measures speed
and distance when cycling.
1. Check the front side of the front
fork to find a suitable place for the
speed sensor. The sensor should be
attached 20-50 cm/ 8"-1’8" from the
mounted wrist receiver.
2. Clean and dry the area underneath
the rubber pad before you attach
it to the front fork.
3. Adjust the angle of the sensor at 4590 degrees as shown in the
illustrations.
4. Pass the cable ties through the
sensor holes and loosely adjust the
Manual S510 GBR C.pm6 8.3.2001, 12:448-9
ties. Do not tighten fully yet. If the cable
ties are too short for your bicycle, put two
of them together to make them longer.
5. There are two spoke magnet options. You
only need to install one of them. One is
installed by rotating it around the spoke
before putting the metal cover on,
another by tightening the screw. The
magnet must be facing the speed sensor.
6. Fine-tune the positioning of both the
magnet and the sensor so that the magnet
passes the sensor closely but does not
touch it. The maximum distance between
the speed sensor and the spoke magnet
should be 5 mm/ 0,2". Once positioned
correctly, tighten the cable ties securely
and cut off any excess cable tie ends.
Your safety is important to us. While
riding your bike, please keep your eyes on
the road to prevent possible accidents and
injury. Check that you can turn the handle
bar normally and cable wires for brakes or
gearing donot catch on the sensor. Check
also that the sensor does not disturb
pedalling or the use of brakes or gearing.
How to put the transmitter on
1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap.
2. Adjust the strap length to fit snugly and
comfortably. Secure the strap around your
chest, just below the chest muscles, and
buckle it.
3. Lift the transmitter off your chest and
moisten the grooved electrode areas
on the back.
4. Check that the wet electrode areas are firmly
against your skin and the Polar logo is in a
central, upright position.
How to start measuring your heart rate
1. Begin with the display that shows
the time of day.
2. Keep the wrist receiver within
1 metre/ 3 feet of your transmitter.
3. Check that you are not near other people
that have heart rate monitors, high voltage
power lines, televisions, mobile phones or
other sources of electromagnetic disturbance.
Manual S510 GBR C.pm6 8.3.2001, 12:4410-11
A 10 A 11
4. Press the OK button to start measuring your heart rate. A heart symbol
will start flashing and your heart rate (beats per minute) will appear in
a maximum of 15 seconds.
5. Press OK again. The stopwatch starts running and you can start
exercising. The exercise data will only be stored in a file if you have
turned the stopwatch on.
How to stop measuring your heart rate
1. Press the stop button. The stopwatch and other calculations stop.
The heart rate measuring continues, although exercise data is no longer
recorded.
2. Press the stop button again. The heart rate measuring stops.
The receiver shows the Time of day display again.
After exercising
1. Carefully wash the transmitter with a mild soap and water solution.
2. Rinse it with pure water.
3. Dry the transmitter carefully with a soft towel.
4. Store the transmitter in a clean and dry place. Dirt impairs the elasticity
and functioning of the transmitter. Sweat and moisture can keep the
electrodes wet and the transmitter activated, which shortens battery life.
Modes and their functions
Your Polar S510 has six main modes: Time of day, Exercise, File, Options,
Fitness test and Connection.
1. TIME OF DAY
You can use your Polar heart rate monitor as an ordinary watch with date,
weekday indicator and alarm function. You can also change between two
different countries’ time zones.
2. EXERCISE
In the Exercise mode, you measure your heart rate and exercise
information is recorded in the File mode. You can preset up to five
exercise sets for your personal needs. When you start exercising, just
select one of the saved sets. Or, you can select BasicUse (heart rate
measurement without heart rate limits, timers or other exercise
guiding functions).
