Perform Polar Fitness Test
1. Wear the transmitter, lie down and relax for 1-3
minutes.
2. In Time view, select Menu > Applications >
Fitness test > Start test. The fitness test
begins as soon as the FT80 locates your heart
rate.
3. Approximately 5 minutes later, a beep indicates
the end of the test, and your test result is
displayed.
4. Press OK. UPDATE VO
2max
? is displayed.
5. Select Yes to save the test result in your user
settings and OwnIndex results. Select No only if
you know your VO
2max
value, and if it differs
more than one fitness level (see the table on
the next page) from the OwnIndex result. Your
OwnIndex value will only be saved in OwnIndex
results.
Troubleshooting
• Set activity level of past three months is
displayed > Set your activity level (see Settings
for more information). Activity level set is
displayed and the test begins.
• Fitness Test Failed is displayed or no heart
rate shown > Test fails. Check that the
transmitter electrodes are moist enough and
that the elastic strap is snug enough around
your chest. If the fitness test fails, your
previous OwnIndex value is not replaced.
