The Polar S710 offers you various possibilities on customising exercise sessions to fit your personal needs.
For example, use the Interval Trainer function to guide you through a complete interval training session. Or, you can choose the functions that suit you best: e.g. timers, recovery calculation and cycling information. After training, you can review your exercise file and transfer it to your computer for analysis with Polar Precision Performance™ software. Monitor your fitness level, and any long-term changes in it, by performing the quick and easy Polar Fitness Test™.
Please read this manual carefully to familiarise yourself with the Polar S710. Here is where you can find the information you need to use and maintain your equipment. The function road map on the front cover is a quick guide to the versatile features of the Polar S710; please tear it off.
Please refer to the glossary for special terms, display symbols and text explanations. The alphabetical index will help you quickly find answers to any questions that you might encounter while using your Polar S710.

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 S710 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
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 Setting the watch) and personal user settings (see section User information settings).
3. Polar S710 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 Polar Precision Performance 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™.
A 8 A 9
20-50 cm 8´´-1´8´´
Installing the 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 45 ­90 degrees as shown in the illustrations.
4. Pass the cable ties through the sensor holes and loosely adjust the 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.
S710 man GBR/B kopio.pm6 8/3/01, 14:338-9
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 do not 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.
S710 man GBR/B kopio.pm6 8/3/01, 14:3310-11
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 S710 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. In addition, the following functions can be uploaded from a computer:
• 7 reminders with alarm sounds
• your personal logo, user number or user name
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).
