Prepare the following settings for the bike. Before you start training, long-press NEXT in time mode to

AutoStart
In AutoStart SET you can set the AutoStart function ON/OFF.
The AutoStart function starts or stops the training recording automatically when you start or stop cycling.
The AutoStart function requires wheel size setting and Polar Speed Sensor W.I.N.D.
Wheel
In Wheel SET you can set the wheel size (mm) of your bike. Wheel size settings are a prerequisite for
accurate cycling information.
There are two ways to determine the wheel size of your bike:
Method 1
Measure the wheel manually for the most accurate result.
Use the valve to mark the point where the wheel touches the ground. Draw a line on the ground to mark
the point. Move your bike forward on a flat surface for one complete rotation. The tire should be
perpendicular to the ground. Draw another line on the ground when the valve is at the starting point to
mark a full rotation. Measure the distance between the two lines.
Subtract 4 mm from the distance to account for your weight on the bike to get your wheel circumference.
Enter this value in the cycling computer.
Method 2
Look for the diameter in inches or in ETRTO printed on the wheel. Match it to the wheel size in
millimeters in the right column of the chart.
You can also check the wheel size from the manufacturer.
