3. TRAINING
Wear the Heart Rate Sensor
Wear the heart rate sensor to measure heart rate.
1. Moisten the electrode area of the strap.
2. Attach the connector to the strap.
3. Tie the strap around your chest, just below the chest
muscles, and attach the hook to the other end of the
strap.
4. Adjust the strap length to fit tightly but comfortably.
Check that the moist electrode areas are firmly against
your skin and that the Polar logo of the connector is in
a central and upright position.
Detach the connector from the strap and rinse the strap
under running water after every use. Sweat and moisture
may keep the electrodes wet and the heart rate sensor
activated. This will reduce the heart rate sensor battery life.
For more detailed washing instructions, see Important
Information.
ENGLISH 11
Start a Training Session
Start a training session by pressing START.
If you purchased a set which does not include a heart rate sensor, and you have set the heart

1. Wearing the RC3 GPS and the heart rate sensor, start by
pressing START. Searching for new heart rate sensor is
displayed. The RC3 GPS searches for a heart rate sensor signal.
2. Heart rate sensor found is displayed, once the RC3 GPS
finds the signal. This action is called pairing and is performed
only once to the heart rate sensor. Pairing ensures that your RC3
GPS receives signal from your heart rate sensor only, and
enables interference-free training when there are other training
computer's around.
12 ENGLISH
3. The RC3 GPS enters the pre-training mode. Select the sport
profile you want to use by browsing with UP/DOWN.
If you have activated the GPS function and/or an optional sensor
in this sport profile, the RC3 GPS will automatically start
searching for the signal.
To catch satellite signals, go outdoors and away from tall
buildings and trees. In good conditions, acquiring satellite
signals for the first time typically takes 30-60 seconds. RC3
GPS will find the signals faster if you keep it immobile during
the search.
4. The check mark indicates that the signal is found. In this image
the RC3 GPS has found the heart rate sensor signal and the GPS
signal. If the RC3 GPS does not find the signal, the display
shows a triangle with an exclamation mark.
Once the RC3 GPS has found all the signals, press START.
Recording started is displayed, and you can start recording
your training session.
ENGLISH 13
Training Functions
Training in Polar sport zones is an easy way to follow your intensity during
training. The Zonepointer feature shows the sport zone you are currently
training in with a heart symbol that moves on the scale according to your heart
rate.
You can lock your target sport zone for a training session. When your heart rate
goes below or above the target sport zone, the RC3 GPS gives a visual and
audible alarm.
By using the heartrate-variability based ZoneOptimizer feature at
the beginning of every training session you can make sure you train at
the right intensity. The ZoneOptimizer adjusts the sport zones
depending on your physiological state at that exact moment.
14 ENGLISH
The Back to starting point feature guides the way back to your starting
point. When you start a training session, the training computer saves your
location as your starting point. When it is time to return to your starting point,
do the following:
• Browse to the BACK TO START-view.
• Keep the RC3 GPS in a horizontal position in front of you
("POLAR" logo facing forward).
• Keep moving in order for the RC3 GPS to determine which
direction you are going. An arrow will point in the direction of your
starting point.
• To get back to the starting point, always turn in the direction of
the arrow.
• The RC3 GPS also shows direction coordinates and the direct
distance (beeline) between you and the starting point.
Always keep a map handy in case the RC3 GPS loses the satellite signal or the battery runs out.
See the full user manual at www.polar.fi/support for detailed instructions on using Polar

5. IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Caring for Your Product
Training computer
Keep your training computer clean. Use a damp
paper towel to wipe dirt from the training
computer. To maintain the water resistance, do
not wash the training computer with a pressure
washer. Do not immerse the training computer
in water. Never use alcohol or any abrasive
material such as steel wool or cleaning
chemicals.
Not suitable for bathing or swimming. Protected
against wash splashes and raindrops. Do not
immerse the training computer in water. Using the
training computer in excessive rainfall may cause
interference on GPS reception.
Heart rate sensor
Connector: Detach the connector from the strap
after every use and dry the connector with a soft
towel. Clean the connector with a mild soap and
water solution when needed. Never use alcohol
or any abrasive material (eg. steel wool or
cleaning chemicals).
Strap: Rinse the strap under running water after
every use and hang to dry. Clean the strap
gently with a mild soap and water solution when
needed. Do not use moisturizing soaps, because
they can leave residue on the strap. Do not
soak, iron, dry clean or bleach the strap. Do not
stretch the strap or bend the electrode areas
sharply.
Check the label on your strap to see if it is machine
washable. Never put the strap or the connector in a
dryer!
ENGLISH 19
CS speed sensor, CS cadence sensor and
s3+ stride sensor
Clean the sensors with a mild soap and water
solution and rinse them with clean water. To
maintain the water resistance, do not wash the
sensors with a pressure washer. Do not immerse
the CS speed sensor, CS cadence sensor or s3+
stride sensor in water. Never use alcohol or any
abrasive material such as steel wool or cleaning
chemicals.
Avoid hard hits to the sensors, as these may
damage the sensor units.
Storing
Keep your training computer and sensors in a
cool and dry place. Do not keep them in a damp
environment, in non-breathable material (a
plastic bag or a sports bag) nor with conductive
material (a wet towel). Do not expose the
training computer to direct sunlight for
extended periods, such as by leaving it in a car
or mounted on the bike mount.
It is recommended to store the training
computer partially or fully charged. The battery
slowly loses its charge when it is stored. If you
are going to store the training computer for
several months, it is recommended to recharge
it after a few months. This will prolong the
battery lifetime.
Dry and store the strap and the connector
separately to maximize the heart rate sensor
battery lifetime. Keep the heart rate sensor in a
cool and dry place. To prevent snap oxidation,
do not store the heart rate sensor wet in
non-breathing material, such as a sports bag.
Do not expose the heart rate sensor to direct
sunlight for extended periods.
Service
During the two-year guarantee/warranty period
we recommend that you have service, other than
battery replacement for the heart rate sensor,
done by an authorized Polar Service Center
only. The warranty does not cover damage or
consequential damage caused by service not
authorized by Polar Electro.
20 ENGLISH

http://register.polar.fi/ to ensure we can keep
improving our products and services to better
meet your needs.
Battery Information
Training Computer
The training computer contains a rechargeable
battery. Polar encourages you to minimize
possible effects of waste on the environment
and human health by following local waste
disposal regulations and, where possible,
utilizing separate collection of electronic
devices at the end of the working life of the
product. Do not dispose of this product as
unsorted municipal waste.
Rechargeable batteries have a limited number
of charge cycles. You can charge and discharge
the battery over 300 times before a notable
decrease in its capacity. The number of charge
cycles also varies by use and operating
conditions. The battery will be 70-80% full
after one hour of charging. Charging the battery
fully takes up to 1,5 hours.
ENGLISH 21
Battery operating time
• in continuous use when recording a training
session with the GPS function ON: up to 12
hours
• in continuous use when recording a training
session with the GPS function OFF: up to
1700 hours
• when you train on average 1h/day, 7
days/week:
• with the GPS function ON: up to 11
days
• with the GPS function OFF: up to 120
days
• when only the time view is used: up to 4
months
The operating time varies depending on
operating conditions (e.g. high or low
temperatures) and battery aging. The operating
time is significantly reduced in temperatures
well below freezing. Wearing RC3 GPS under
your overcoat helps to keep it warmer and to
increase the operating time.
To learn when to recharge the battery, see the
full user manual at www.polar.fi/support.
Heart Rate Sensor
The Polar heart rate sensor has a user
changeable battery.
When changing the battery, make sure the
sealing ring is not damaged, in which case you
should replace it with a new one to ensure the
water resistance of the connector.
You can purchase the sealing ring/battery kits at
well-equipped Polar retailers and authorized
Polar Services. In the USA and Canada, the
additional sealing rings are available at
authorized Polar Service Centers. In the USA
the sealing ring/battery kits are also available at
www.shoppolar.com.
When handling a new, fully charged battery,
avoid clasp-like contact, i.e. simultaneous from
both sides, with metal or electrically conducting
tools, like tweezers. This may short-circuit the
battery causing it to discharge more rapidly.
Typically, short circuiting does not damage the
battery, but it may decrease the capacity and
lifetime of the battery.
22 ENGLISH
To change the battery:
1. Lever the battery cover open by using the
bracket on the strap.
2. Remove the old battery from the battery cover
with a suitable sized small ridgid stick or bar,
such as a toothpick. A non-metal tool is
preferable. Be careful not to damage the battery
cover.
3. Insert a new battery (CR 2025) inside the cover
with the negative (-) side outwards.
4. Align the ledge on the battery cover with the
slot on the connector and press the battery
cover back into its place. You should hear a
snap.
Keep the batteries away from children. If
swallowed, contact a doctor immediately. Batteries
should be properly disposed of according to local
regulations.
Danger of explosion if the battery is replaced with
wrong type.
ENGLISH 23
Precautions
The Polar RC3 GPS training computer shows
your performance indicators. The RC3 GPS is
designed to indicate the level of physiological
strain and recovery during and after an exercise
session. It measures heart rate, speed and
distance. It also measures running cadence
when used with s3+ stride sensor and cycling
cadence when used with a CS cadence sensor
W.I.N.D.. No other use is intended or implied.
The RC3 GPS should not be used for obtaining
environmental measurements that require
professional or industrial precision.
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.
24 ENGLISH
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. If you use perfume or insect
repellent on your skin, you must ensure that it does
not come into contact with the training computer or
the heart rate sensor.
If you train in cold conditions (-20 °C to -10 °C / -4
°F to 14 °F ) we recommend that you wear the
training computer under the sleeve of your jacket,
directly on your skin.
Disturbance may occur near electrical
devices. Also WLAN base stations may cause
interference when training with Polar training
computer. To avoid erratic reading or
misbehaviors, move away from possible sources
of disturbance. For further information, see
