The model of your heart rate sensor is printed on the connector. The latest version of this user manual can be downloaded at www.polar.fi/support. For video tutorials, go to www.polar.fi/support/video_tutorials. Please follow the pictures on the front and back covers. Heart Rate Sensor Parts 1. 2. The plastic electrode areas on the reverse side of the strap detect heart rate. Picture A1. The connector sends the heart rate signal to the training computer. Picture A2. Polar heart rate sensors enable training in a group without interference from other heart rate sensors. Wear the Heart Rate Sensor 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Moisten the electrode area of the strap. Picture B1. Attach the connector to the strap. Picture B2. Tie the strap around your chest, just below the chest muscles, and attach the hook to the other end of the strap. Picture B3. 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. Picture B4. 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 battery life. See detailed washing instructions in the Caring for Your Heart Rate Sensor section. Using a New Heart Rate Sensor When you purchase a new Polar H2 or Polar H3 heart rate sensor, it has to be paired with the training computer in order to measure your heart rate. See your Polar training computer's user manual for instructions on how to take the heart rate sensor into use. Using Your Heart Rate Sensor in Water Polar H1 and Polar H2 heart rate sensors can be used in water activities with training computers that use magnetic data transmission. Please notice that sea and pool water are very conductive, and electrodes may short-circuit, preventing ECG signals from being detected by the heart rate sensor. When using a bathing suit, the best performance is achieved by wearing the heart rate sensor underneath it. Polar H3 heart rate sensor is water resistant but will not measure heart rate in water due to its 2.4 GHz (W.I.N.D.) transmission frequency. Caring for Your Heart Rate Sensor The heart rate sensor is a high-tech instrument that should be handled with care. Follow the caring instructions to ensure reliable measurement and to maximize the life span of the heart rate sensor. The following instructions will help you fulfill guarantee obligations. ENGLISH 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. 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. Do not store the heart rate sensor wet in non-breathing material, such as a sports bag, to prevent snap oxidation. Do not expose the heart rate sensor to direct sunlight for extended periods. Never put the strap or the connector in a washing machine or dryer! Service During the two-year guarantee/warranty period we recommend that you have service, other than battery replacement, 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. For contact information and all Polar Service Center addresses, visit www.polar.fi/support and country specific websites. ENGLISH Changing Battery All connectors have user changeable batteries. To change the battery yourself, follow the instructions below, and see the markings on the connector and picture C on the front cover of this user manual. 1. 2. 3. 4. Lever the battery cover open by using the bracket on the strap. Picture C1. 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. Picture C2. Insert a new battery (CR 2025) inside the cover with the negative (-) side outwards. Picture C3. 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. Picture C4. 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. Keep batteries away from children. If swallowed, contact a doctor immediately. Batteries should be properly disposed of according to local regulations. ENGLISH Precautions For allergy information, see the listed materials in Technical Specifications. Avoid skin reactions by wearing the heart rate sensor over a shirt, moistened under the electrodes. 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 heart rate sensor.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Avis de conformité à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada Cet appareil est conform à la norme NMB-003 du Industrie Canada. L’utilisation de ce dispositif est autorisée seulement aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) il ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l’utilisateur du dispositif doit être prêt à accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique reçu, même si ce brouillage est susceptible de compromettre le fonctionnement du dispositif. USA FCC regulatory information This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: 1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. 2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. 3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. 4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. This product emits radio frequency energy, but the radiated output power of this device is far below the FCC and IC radio frequency exposure limits. This equipment complies with FCC and IC RF radiation exposure limits forth for an uncontrolled environment. Nevertheless, the device should be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact with the antenna during normal operation is minimized. Caution! Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
