BENEFITS OF YOUR POLAR FT40 TRAINING COMPUTER UNDERSTAND YOUR BODY: Training with Polar FT40 means you never need to guess. The FT40 shows you the effect of your training: fat burning or fitness improvement. BURN FAT : In the fat burn zone, you burn mostly fat calories, increase your metabolism, and build a foundation for higher intensity training. GET FIT: In the fitness zone, you train harder to improve cardiovascular fitness, strengthen the heart, and increase blood circulation to the muscles. 4 Benefits of Your Polar FT40 Training Computer ENGLISH 2. GET STARTED Get to Know Your Polar FT40 Wrist Unit records and displays your heart rate and other data during training. WearLink transmits the heart rate signal to the wrist unit.

Your training session is recorded only when recording for more than one minute. 10 Training ENGLISH Burn Fat or Improve Fitness While training, the Polar FT40 displays your optimal training intensity for burning fat and improving fitness. These intensities may vary depending on your daily physical and mental condition. When you start recording a training session, the FT40 analyses your current condition and, if necessary, will adjust the intensities accordingly. This intelligent training computer can detect your body's daily state from your heart rate and heart rate variability. When your body is recovered from previous training sessions and is not tired or stressed, then you are prepared for more intensive training. The effect of your training is displayed on the wrist unit in real time. The fat-burning and fitness intensity zones are separated by a vertical dotted line. This line is automatically detected by the FT40, and shifted according to your current condition. Effect on the display will change to Fatburn or Fitness depending on which zone you are in. 1. Your current heart rate 2. Limit heart rate value between fat-burning and fitness intensity zones. ~ disappears as the FT40 adjusts the intensity zones to correspond to your current condition when necessary. Training 11 ENGLISH Fatburn (heart symbol is on the left side of the line) In fatburn zone, training intensity is lower, and the source of energy is mainly fat. Therefore, fat burns efficiently and your metabolism, mainly fat oxidation, increases. Fitness (heart symbol is on the right side of the line) In fitness zone, training intensity is higher and you are improving your cardiovascular fitness i.e. strenghtening your heart and increasing blood circulation to muscles and lungs. The main energy source is carbohydrates. You can lock into the Fatburn or Fitness zones, depending on your goal for that particular training session. While in the desired zone, press OK for one second to lock. Fat burning zone locked or Fitness zone locked is displayed. The wrist unit gives a sound if you are training too hard or too light. For instance, fatburn zone is locked in this image. To unlock a zone, press OK for one second. 12 Training ENGLISH Training Functions The following information is displayed during a training session. Press UP/DOWN to change the view. Heart rate Your current heart rate. The duration of your training is displayed in all views. Calories Amount of calories burned. Time Time of day. Training 13 ENGLISH Quick Menu: Long pressing the LIGHT button during training recording brings you to Quick menu. In Quick menu you can adjust training sounds or lock buttons.

Wash the strap regularly in a washing machine at 40ºC/104ºF at least after every fifth use. 14 Training Training Tips If your aim is to lose weight, training sessions need to be 30-60 minutes or longer in the fat burn zone. The longer the duration the more calories burned, especially from fat. The percentage of burnt fat calories will appear in a summary after the session. For improving your cardiovascular fitness, aim to train in the fitness zone three or four times a week for 20-40 minutes per session. The fitter you are, the more training (more often and longer duration) is required for fitness improvement. Read more about training in Training Articles at http://articles.polar.fi. ENGLISH 4.

Customer Service Information 27 ENGLISH Service Your Polar FT40 is designed to help you achieve personal fitness goals and indicate the level of physiological strain and intensity during training sessions. No other use is intended or implied. During the two-year guarantee/warranty period we recommend that you have service 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. Please see the separate Polar Customer Service Card for details. Register your Polar product at http://register.polar.fi/ to ensure we can keep improving our products and services to better meet your needs. 28 Customer Service Information ENGLISH Changing Batteries To change the battery yourself: Avoid opening the sealed battery cover during the guarantee period. We recommend that you have the battery replaced by an authorized Polar Service Center. They test your Polar FT40 for water resistance after battery replacement and make a full periodic check. Please note the following: Change the sealing ring of the battery cover every time you change the battery. 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 only. Keep the batteries away from children. If swallowed, contact a doctor immediately. Batteries should be disposed of properly according to local regulations. • • • • • The low battery indicator is displayed when 10-15% of the battery capacity is left. Before battery change, transfer all data from your FT40 to polarpersonaltrainer.com to avoid data loss. For more information see Transfer Data. Excessive use of the backlight drains the battery more rapidly. In cold conditions, the low battery indicator may appear, but will disappear when the temperature rises. The backlight and sound are automatically turned off when the low battery indicator is displayed. Any alarms set prior to the appearance of the low battery indicator will remain active. When handling a new, fully charged battery, avoid clasp-like contact, i.e. simultaneously 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 may decrease the capacity and thus the lifetime of the battery. Customer Service Information 29 ENGLISH 1. Open the battery cover with a coin by turning it from CLOSE to OPEN. 2. • When changing wrist unit battery (2a), remove the battery cover and lift the battery out carefully with a suitable sized small rigid stick or bar, for instance, a toothpick or small screwdriver. However, prefer a non-metal tool for wrenching the battery out. Be careful not to damage the metal sound element (*) or the grooves. Insert a new battery with the positive (+) side outwards. • When changing transmitter battery (2b), place the battery inside the cover with the positive (+) side facing the cover. 3. Replace the old sealing ring with a new one, fitting it snuggly in the cover groove to ensure water resistance. 4. Put the cover back on and turn it clockwise to CLOSE. 5. Re-enter the basic settings if you changed the wrist unit batteries. 30 Customer Service Information ENGLISH Precautions Minimizing Possible Risks Training may include some risk. Before beginning a regular training program, answer the following questions concerning your health status. If you answer yes to any of these questions, consult a physician before starting any training program. • • • • • • • • • Note that in addition to training intensity, medication 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 training. If you feel unexpected pain or excessive fatigue when training, stop the exercise or continue at a lighter intensity. Have you been physically inactive for the past five years? Do you have high blood pressure or high blood cholesterol? Do you have symptoms of any disease? Are you taking any blood pressure or heart medication? Do you have a history of breathing problems? 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? Customer Service Information 31 ENGLISH If you have a pacemaker, defibrillator or other implanted electronic device, you use the Polar FT40 at your own risk. Before starting use, take a maximal training stress test under the supervision of a physician. The test is to ensure the safety and reliability of the simultaneous use of the pacemaker and the Polar FT40. 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 transmitter, wear it over a shirt. Moisten the shirt well under the electrodes to ensure flawless operation. If you use insect repellent on your skin, make sure that it does not come into contact with the transmitter. Exercise equipment with electronic components may cause interfering stray signals. To tackle these problems, try the following: 1. Remove the transmitter from your chest and use the exercise equipment as you would normally. 2. Move the wrist unit around until you find an area in which it displays no stray reading or does not flash the heart symbol. Interference is often worst right in front of the display panel of the equipment, while the left or right side of the display is relatively free of disturbance. 3. Put the transmitter back on your chest and keep the wrist unit in this interference-free area as much as possible. If the Polar FT40 still does not work, the piece of equipment may be electrically too noisy for wireless heart rate measurement. 32 Customer Service Information ENGLISH Troubleshooting If you don't know where you are in the menu, press and hold BACK until the time is displayed. If there are no reactions to any buttons or the wrist unit displays unusual readings, reset the wrist unit by pressing four buttons (UP, DOWN, BACK and LIGHT) simultaneously for four seconds. All other settings except time and date will be saved. If the heart rate reading becomes erratic, extremely high or shows nil (00), make sure that there are no other heart rate transmitters within 1 m/3 ft and that the transmitter strap/the textile electrodes fit snugly and are moistened, clean and undamaged. If the heart rate measurement does not work with the sports apparel, try using the strap. If it works, the problem is most probably in the apparel. Please contact the apparel retailer/manufacturer. Strong electromagnetic signals can cause erratic readings. Electromagnetic disturbances may occur near high-voltage power lines, traffic lights, overhead lines of electric railways, electric bus lines or trams, televisions, car motors, bike computers, some motor driven training equipment, cellular phones, or at electric security gates. To avoid erratic readings, move away from possible sources of disturbance. If the abnormal reading continues despite moving away from the source of disturbance, slow down and check your pulse manually. If you feel it corresponds to the high reading on the display, you may be experiencing cardiac arrhythmia. Most cases of arrhythmia are not serious, but consult your doctor nevertheless. A cardiac event may have altered your ECG waveform. In this case, consult your physician. If heart rate measurement does not work despite the actions mentioned previously, the battery of your transmitter may be empty.
