Detach the connector from the strap when you are not using it to maximize the transmitter lifetime.
See detailed washing instructions in Care and Maintenance.
The Polar WearLink transmitter can be used with specific apparel that has built-in soft textile electrodes.
Wet the electrode areas of the apparel. Clip the connector of the transmitter straight onto the apparel
without the strap so that the connector’s Polar logo is in an upright position.
Start Training
1. Wear the transmitter as instructed and start heart rate measurement by pressing OK.
2. Within 15 seconds, your heart rate appears on the display.
If you use a sensor, select the shoe or bike by pressing and holding DOWN, or in Settings >
Shoes/bikes. The number in the lower right hand corner of the display indicates your shoe or
bike selection. Stand still and wait until the training computer finds the sensor signal
(depending on the sensor you are using, runner, biker or GPS symbol stops flashing).
To quick-change exercise type, press and hold UP.
3. Start exercising by pressing OK.
If the following message is displayed: (Exercise name) requires a speed sensor, your exercise requires a
speed sensor to display speed/pace and distance* data (e.g. you have defined speed/pace* zones for the
exercise). The training computer returns to exercise type selection menu, where you can select an exercise
which does not require a speed sensor.
Alternatively, select Settings, Reset trip or Location.
In Settings you can change or view different settings before exercise. For further information on all the
settings available, see 7. Settings. The Settings menu lists the following options:
