1. Wear the Polar transmitter and the wrist receiver as
described in the chapter Getting going.
2. To make sure that the code search will be successful:
• Keep the wrist receiver within 1 metre / 3 feet of
your transmitter
• Check that you are not near to other people with
heart rate monitors, high voltage power lines,
televisions, mobile phones, cars, exercise equipment
etc.
3. Begin with display showing Time of day.
4. Press MODE to enter the MEASURE mode.
A heart shaped frame appears. The wrist receiver
starts searching for coded transmission for max. 15
seconds.
Heart rate measurement commences and the heart
symbol inside the frame starts flashing.
Your heart rate reading (in beats per minute)
appears in the display.
If the code search was not successful, the frame around the
heart symbol will disappear after 15 seconds. Go back to
step 2 to repeat the code search.
If you still do not succeed in code searching, but your heart
rate is displayed and the heart symbol without a frame is
flashing, you can start exercising but your wrist receiver
may become disturbed by other heart rate monitors.

Stopwatch starts running and you hear a long beep.
Automatic recording begins.
Determining your OwnZone begins if you have set

START THE HEART RATE
MEASUREMENT
Polar M71 ti is able to determine the individual training
heart rate zone for you. This exercise zone is called your
OwnZone (O.Z.).
For most adults, OwnZone corresponds to 65-85 % of the
maximum heart rate. OwnZone is suitable for
cardiovascular training either for health-related or fitness
improvement purposes.
OwnZone works well for those whose goal is weight
control via physical activity and exercise, because the
OwnZone intensity corresponds to intensity from “light to
moderate” to “moderate”. Exercise of this intensity level
can be conducted even for extended periods safely and
often and yields the best results for weight loss.
The OwnZone can be found during a warmup period of an
exercise session lasting 2-10 minutes.
