Polar uses this same indication system. Water resistance of Polar products is testedaccording to International Standard ISO 22810 or IEC60529. Every Polar device that has water resistanceindication is tested before the delivery to stand water pressure.Polar products are divided into four different categories according to their water resistance. Check the backof your Polar product for the water resistance category, and compare it to the chart below. Please note thatthese definitions do not necessarily apply to products of other manufacturers.When performing any underwater activity, the dynamic pressure generated by moving in water is greater thanthe static pressure. This means that moving the product under water subjects it to a greater pressure than ifthe product were stationary.Marking on the backof the productWashsplashes,sweat, rain-drops etc.Bathing andswimmingSkin divingwith snorkel(no air tanks)SCUBAdiving(with airtanks)Water resistant char-acteristicsWater resistant IPX7 OK - - - Do not wash with a pressurewasher.
