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 Watch Settings)
and personal user settings (see section User Information
Settings).
3. For more information on the other functions, 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
Installing the Polar Bike Mount
Use cable ties to secure the bike mount
securely 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

Riding direction
fork to find a suitable place for the
speed sensor. The sensor should be
attached less than 1’8"/ 50 cm from
the mounted wrist receiver. The
smaller the distance the better.
Choose the right area on the fork and
clean and dry it thoroughly. Attach the
rubber pad over that area.
2. Place the sensor in the position as in
illustration 2. Then adjust the sensor
towards the wheel as much as possible.
3. 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.

4. There are two spoke magnet options.
How to Put the Transmitter On
You only need to install one of them.
Check which of the magnets fits the
spoke of your bike best. (A) One is
installed by rotating it around the spoke
before putting the metal cover on,
another (B) by tightening the screw. The
magnet must be facing the speed sensor.
5. Fine-tune the positioning of both the
or
B
A
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
5
should be 0.2 "/5 mm. Once positioned
correctly, tighten the cable ties securely
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
and cut off any excess cable tie ends.
1. Begin with the display that shows
Your safety is important to us. While
riding your bike, please keep your eyes
on the road to prevent possible accidents
and injury. Before riding your bicycle,
check that you can turn the handlebars
normally and cable wires for brakes or
gearing do not catch on the sensor.
the time of day.
2. Keep the wrist receiver within
3 feet/ 1 meter of your transmitter.
3. Check that you are not near people that have
heart rate monitors, high voltage power lines,
televisions, mobile phones or other sources of
electromagnetic disturbance.
Check also that the sensor does not
disturb pedalling or the use of brakes
or gearing.
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
conductivity 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 receiver 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.
