...the wrist unit battery needs to be changed?
We recommend that all service should be done by an authorized Polar Service Center. The 2-year International Guarantee does not cover
damage or consequential damage caused by service not authorized by Polar Electro. The Polar Service Center will test your wrist unit for water
resistance after battery replacement and makes a full periodic check of your complete Polar heart rate monitor.
...the buttons do not react?
Reset the wrist unit. Resetting clears the date and time settings.
Press all buttons except the Light button at the same time until the display is filled with digits. Press OK.
For further information, see the section Basic Settings on page 10. If you have already set the Basic Settings
once, you can skip them after setting the date by pressing and holding the Back button. If you do not press
any button after you reset the wrist unit, within one minute the wrist unit goes to the Time of Day display.
If this does not work, have the batteries checked.
...the Updated OwnZone limits vary a lot?
Heart rate variability reacts sensitively to all changes taking place in your body and environment. The OwnZone heart rate limits are affected
by, amongst other things, your state of fitness, the time of day of the OwnZone determination, the type of exercise and your state of mind. The
lower limit of the OwnZone can vary for the same person by 5-10 beats but as much as 30 beats is possible. However it is important that the
exercise carried out in the OwnZone feels light or moderate. For example, if you raise your heart rate too rapidly after the first stage, you may
receive OwnZone heart rate limits that are too high. If the OwnZone limits seem to be too high, we recommend that the OwnZone
determination be repeated.
