Wear the Heart Rate Sensor
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.

Start Training With OwnZone
Starting every training session with the OwnZone guarantees safe and effective heart rate zones for your
daily condition. Check your OwnZone at least
• when changing training environment or sport.
• when training for the first time after a week's break.
• If you have not recovered from the previous training or if you are not feeling well or are stressed.
• after changing user information.
Determining OwnZone limits take five minutes, and can be performed as a warm-up. Start slowly keeping
your heart rate below 100 bpm/ 50% HR
max
. After each minute, increase your speed gradually about 10
bpm/ 5% HR
max
.
If you have activated your training program and you actively use the OwnZone determination, the training
computer unit takes into account your long-term OwnZone results when updating the program targets.
