Maintenance
Your Polar Heart Rate Monitor is a high-tech instrument of
superior design and workmanship and should be treated with

TAKING CARE OF YOUR
POLAR HEART RATE MONITOR

soap and water solution. Rinse with pure water. Dry
carefully after washing.

can keep its electrodes wet and the Polar Transmitter
activated, which shortens the battery life.

damage the electrodes.

sunlight for extended periods, such as by leaving it in a car.
