3. TRAINING
Wear the heart rate sensor to measure heart rate.
1. Moisten the electrode area of the strap.
2. Attach the connector to the strap.
3. Tie the strap around your chest, just below the chest muscles,
and attach the hook to the other end of the strap.
4. 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.
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 heart rate sensor battery life. For more detailed washing
instructions, see Important Information.
