The plastic electrode areas on the reverseside of the strap detect heart rate. PictureA1.2. The connector sends the heart rate signalto the receiving device. Picture A2.Polar H6 heart rate sensor enables training in agroup without interference from other heart ratesensors.1
Wear the Heart Rate Sensor1. Moisten the electrode areas of the strap.Picture B1.2. Attach the connector to the strap. PictureB2.3. Tie the strap around your chest, just belowthe chest muscles, and attach the hook tothe other end of the strap. Picture B3.4. Adjust the strap length to fit tightly butcomfortably.5. Check that the moist electrode areas arefirmly against your skin and that the Polarlogo of the connector is in a central andupright position. Picture B4.Detach the connector from the strap and rinsethe strap under running water after every use.Sweat and moisture may keep the electrodeswet and the heart rate sensor activated. Thiswill reduce the battery life.See detailed washing instructions in the Caringfor Your Heart Rate Sensor section or atpolar.fi/support.Write the device ID printed on your heart ratesensor in the space on the front cover.

Getting StartedPolar H6 heart rate sensor is compatible withBluetooth®smart ready devices that supportheart rate service. A separate application isrequired to view heart rate data on the receivingdevice (for example, a smartphone). It isrecommended to use the Polar Beat applicationbut it is also possible to use other applications.If you have a polarpersonaltrainer.com account,Polar Beat automatically synchronizes yourtraining files to it. Please note that you mustsign in to your polarpersonaltrainer.com accountwhen starting Polar Beat for the autosync towork.When using the Polar H6 for the first time,you need to pair the heart rate sensor withyour receiving device. During pairing youmust wear the heart rate sensor. For moreinformation on pairing, see the mobileapplication manufacturer's instructions.ENGLISH 3
To ensure sufficient transmission range fromyour Polar H6 heart rate sensor to the receivingdevice, keep the device in front of you. A goodplace is in a front pocket or fixed on a belt. Donot wear the receiving device on your back (forexample, in a back pocket or backpack).Using Your Heart Rate Sensor in WaterPolar H6 heart rate sensor is water resistant butBluetooth®wireless technology will not work inwater.Caring for Your Heart Rate SensorThe heart rate sensor is a high-tech instrumentthat should be handled with care. Follow thecaring instructions to ensure reliablemeasurement and to maximize the life span ofthe heart rate sensor. The following instructionswill help you fulfill guarantee obligations.Connector: Detach the connector from the strapafter every use and dry the connector with a softtowel. Clean the connector with a mild soap andwater solution when needed. Never use alcoholor any abrasive material (e.g. steel wool orcleaning chemicals).4ENGLISH
