2. GETTING STARTED

Measuring Wheel Size

Before activating your cycling computer, measure
the wheel size of your bicycle.

Wheel size settings are a prerequisite for correct
cycling information. There are two ways of
determining the wheel size of your bike:

Method 1

Look for the diameter in inches or in ETRTO
printed on the wheel. Match it to the wheel size in
millimeters in the right column of the ETRTO
chart on the following page.

Wheel sizes on the chart are advisory as wheel
size depends on the wheel type and air pressure.

Method 2

Measure the wheel manually for the most accurate
result.

Use the valve to mark the point where the wheel
touches the ground. Draw a line on the ground to
mark that point. Move your bike forward on a flat
surface for one complete rotation. The tire should
be perpendicular to the ground. Draw another line
on the ground at the valve to mark a full rotation.
Measure the distance between the two lines.

Subtract 4 mm to account for your weight on the
bike to get your wheel circumference. Enter this
value in the cycling computer.

Using an Accessory with Your CS600X Cycling Computer

Polar CS600X cycling computer is compatible with the following Polar W.I.N.D sensors:

The Polar LOOK Kéo Power system, Polar Speed Sensor W.I.N.D, Polar Cadence Sensor W.I.N.D and the
Polar G5 GPS Sensor.

If you purchase a new sensor, it has to be activated by and introduced to the cycling computer. This is
called teaching and takes only a few seconds. Teaching ensures that your cycling computer receives
signals from your sensors only, and enables disturbance-free exercise in a group. For more information,
see Using a New Accessory in the user manual.

Before entering an event, make sure to perform the teaching process at home. This is to prevent interference
due to the long-range data transmission.

If you purchased the sensor and cycling computer together, as a set, the sensor will already have been
“taught” to work together with the cycling computer. In which case you will only need to activate the
sensor in your cycling computer. For more information see Bike Settings in the user manual.

Precautions

The Polar Cycling Computer shows your performance
indicators. It is designed to indicate the level of
physiological strain and recovery during and after exercise
session. It also measures speed and distance when cycling
with a Polar Speed Sensor W.I.N.D. The Polar G5 GPS
sensor is designed to measure speed, distance and
location data, as well as to provide track information. The
Polar Cadence Sensor W.I.N.D. is designed to measure
cadence when cycling. The Polar LOOK Kéo Power system
is designed to measure power output when cycling. No
other use is intended or implied.

Interference During Exercise

Electromagnetic Interference and Exercise Equipment.

Disturbance may occur near microware ovens and
computers. Also WLAN base stations may cause
interference when exercising with CS600X. To avoid
erratic reading or misbehaviors, move away from possible
sources of disturbance.

Exercise equipment with electronic or electrical
components such as LED displays, motors and electrical
brakes may cause interfering stray signals. To solve these
problems, try the following:

1. Remove the heart rate sensor from your chest and use
the exercise equipment as you would normally.

2. Move the cycling computer around until you find an
area in which it displays no stray reading or does not
flash the heart symbol. Interference is often worst
directly in front of the display panel of the equipment,
while the left or right side of the display is relatively
free of disturbance.

3. Put the heart rate sensor back on your chest and keep
the cycling computer in this interference-free area as
much as possible.

If the cycling computer still does not work with the
exercise equipment, it may be electrically too noisy for
wireless heart rate measurement.

ENGLISH

22 Customer Service Information

Minimizing Risks When Exercising

Exercise may include some risk. Before beginning a
regular exercise program, it is recommended that you
answer the following questions concerning your health
status. If you answer yes to any of these questions, we
recommend that you consult a doctor 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?

• 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.
