ENGLISHCongratulations! Polar Stride Sensor Bluetooth®Smart is the best choice for improving yourrunning technique and efficiency. Usingsensitive inertial sensors, it gives accurate andhighly responsive speed, distance, leg cadenceand stride length measurements.Polar Stride Sensor Bluetooth®Smart iscompatible with Bluetooth®Smart Readydevices that support Bluetooth®Running Speedand Cadence Service. When using asmartphone, a separate application is requiredto view stride sensor data.The latest version of this user manual can bedownloaded at www.polar.com/support.For video tutorials, see Using Polar StrideSensor Bluetooth®Smart atwww.polar.com/en/polar_community/videos.Please follow the pictures on the front and backcovers.Write the device ID printed on your stridesensor in the space on the front cover (pictureB). The original marking may fade as a resultof normal wear and tear.1
Install Stride Sensor BatteryBefore using your stride sensor for the firsttime, insert the battery (included in the productpackage).1. Open the battery cover by turning itcounterclockwise to OPEN using a coin(picture A1).2. Place the battery inside the cover with thepositive (+) side facing the cover (pictureA2). Make sure the sealing ring is in thegroove to ensure water resistance.3. Place the cover with the battery inside itinto the sensor.4. Press the cover in place and close it byturning clockwise from OPEN to CLOSEusing a coin (picture A3).To increase battery life, Polar Stride SensorBluetooth®Smart has three different powermodes: Measuring, Stand By and Deep Sleepmode. In Stand By mode, the sensor is visibleto the receiving device and a connection ispossible. When connected to the receivingdevice, the sensor goes to Measuring mode.When disconnected, the sensor returns toStand By mode. If the sensor is not touchedduring the next couple of minutes, it goes toDeep Sleep mode. The slightest movement willmake the sensor return to Stand By mode.2ENGLISH
Pair a New Stride Sensor with YourReceiving DevicePolar Stride Sensor Bluetooth®Smart must bepaired with the receiving device in order toanalyze your running technique and efficiency.For more information, see the user guidancematerial of the receiving device or mobileapplication.Attach the Stride Sensor on Shoelaces1. Undo your shoelaces and place the holderon top of the tongue of the shoe. Make surethe holder flap is facing upwards.2. Thread the laces in through the holes onthe sides of the holder and out through thehole on the bottom of the holder (picturesC1 and C2). Thread the laces through thesmall flap on the tongue of the shoe toensure the holder does not move whilerunning.3. Tighten the laces.4. Fit the front part of the sensor into theholder and press from the rear (picture C3).Fasten the flap.5. Make sure the sensor does not move and isaligned with your foot. The more secure thesensor, the more accurately speed anddistance is measured.ENGLISH 3
Calibrate the Stride SensorCalibration of the stride sensor improves theaccuracy of speed, pace, distance and stridelength measurements. It is recommended thatyou calibrate the stride sensor before using itfor the first time, if there are significantchanges in your running style, or if the positionof the stride sensor on the shoe is dramaticallychanged (e.g. if you have new shoes or if youswitch the sensor from your right shoe to yourleft one). The calibration should be done at thespeed you normally run.Calibration is done via the receiving device. Seethe user guidance material of the receivingdevice or mobile application for instructions.ServiceDuring the two-year guarantee/warranty periodwe recommend that you have service, other thanbattery replacement, done by an authorizedPolar Service Center only. The warranty does notcover damage or consequential damage causedby service not authorized by Polar Electro. Forcontact information and all Polar Service Centeraddresses, visit www.polar.com/support andcountry-specific websites.Changing batteries: To change the batteries ofthe stride sensor yourself, follow the giveninstructions. To ensure the maximum lifespan ofthe battery cover, open it only when changing4ENGLISH
the battery. When changing the battery, makesure the sealing ring is not damaged, in whichcase you should replace it with a new one. Youcan purchase the sealing ring/battery kits atwell-equipped Polar retailers and authorizedPolar Services. In the USA and Canada, theadditional sealing rings are available atauthorized Polar Service Centers. In the USA,the sealing ring/battery kits are also available atwww.shoppolar.com. Go to www.polar.com tofind your own country's shoppolar online store.The battery level of your stride sensor isdisplayed on the receiving device if it supportsBluetooth®Battery Service.Keep batteries away from children. Ifswallowed, contact a doctor immediately.Batteries should be properly disposed ofaccording to local regulations.Caution: Risk of explosion if battery is replacedby an incorrect type. Dispose of batteriesaccording to the instructions.Care and MaintenanceYour safety is important to us. The shape of thestride sensor is designed to minimize thepossibility of getting caught in something. Inany case, be careful when running with thestride sensor in brushwood, for example.ENGLISH 5
The stride sensor is water resistant and can besafely worn in the rain. Do not immerse thestride sensor in water as it is not intended forunderwater activities. Do not expose to directsunlight for extended periods.Keep your stride sensor in a cool and dry place.Do not keep in a damp environment, in non-breathable material (a plastic bag or a sportsbag) nor with conductive material (a wet towel).Technical SpecificationsBattery life: Average 600 hours of useBattery type: CR2430Battery sealing ring: O-Ring 25.0 x 1.2, material siliconeOperating temperature: -10 °C to +50 °C / 14 °F to 122 °FAccuracy: ±3 % or better once calibrated,definition applies to stable conditionsLimited International Polar Guarantee• This guarantee does not affect the consumer’sstatutory rights under applicable national or statelaws in force, or the consumer’s rights against thedealer arising from their sales/purchase contract.• This limited Polar international guarantee is issuedby Polar Electro Inc. for consumers who havepurchased this product in the USA or Canada.

These limits aredesigned to provide reasonable protection againstharmful interference in a residential installation. Thisequipment generates, uses and can radiate radiofrequency energy and, if not installed and used inaccordance with the instructions, may cause harmfulinterference to radio communications. However, thereis no guarantee that interference will not occur in aparticular installation.If this equipment does cause harmful interference toradio or television reception, which can be determinedby turning the equipment off and on, the user isencouraged to try to correct the interference by one ormore of the following measures:1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.2. Increase the separation between the equipmentand receiver.3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuitdifferent from that to which the receiver isconnected.4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TVtechnician for help.ENGLISH 11
This product emits radio frequency energy, but theradiated output power of this device is far below theFCC radio frequency exposure limits. This equipmentcomplies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits forthfor an uncontrolled environment. Nevertheless, thedevice should be used in such a manner that thepotential for human contact with the antenna duringnormal operation is minimized.This crossed out wheeled bin marking shows that Polarproducts are electronic devices and are in the scope ofDirective 2002/96/EC of the European Parliament andof the Council on waste electrical and electronicequipment (WEEE) and batteries and accumulatorsused in products are in the scope of Directive2006/66/EC of the European Parliament and of theCouncil of 6 September 2006 on batteries andaccumulators and waste batteries and accumulators.These products and batteries/accumulators inside Polarproducts should thus be disposed of separately in EUcountries.This marking shows that the product is protectedagainst electric shocks.Bluetooth QD ID: B02040412 ENGLISH
