Service for detailed instructions.
Polar recycles used transmitters.
POLAR TEMPO RECEIVER
The estimated average battery life of the Polar Tempo wrist
receiver is 1 year in normal use (2h/day, 7 days a week).
However, because the battery is inserted at the factory, the
actual life of your first battery once in your possession may be
less than the estimated battery life.
Do not open the Polar wrist receiver yourself. To ensure the
water resistance properties and the use of qualified
components, the wrist receiver battery should be replaced
only by a person authorised by Polar Electro Oy. At the same
time a full periodic check of the Polar Heart Rate Monitor will
be done.

Care and
Maintenance
Your Polar Heart Rate Monitor is a high-tech instrument of
superior design and workmanship and should be treated with
care. The suggestions below will help you fulfill the warranty
obligations and enjoy this product for many years to come.
TAKING CARE OF YOUR
POLAR HEART RATE MONITOR
• Wash the Polar Transmitter regularly after use with a mild
soap and water solution. Dry it carefully after washing.
• Never store the transmitter wet. Sweat and moisture can
keep its electrodes wet and the transmitter activated, which
shortens the battery life.
• Store your Polar Heart Rate Monitor in a cool and dry place.
Do not store it in any kind of non-breathing material, such
as a plastic bag or a sports bag, if it is wet.
• Do not bend or stretch the transmitter. This may damage
the electrodes.
• Keep your Polar Heart Rate Monitor out of extreme cold
(below -10
O
C/14
O
F) and heat (above 50
O
C/122
O
F).
• Do not expose the Polar Heart Rate Monitor to direct
sunlight for extended periods, such as by leaving it in a car.
• Do not dry the transmitter in any other way than with a
towel. Hard-handed handling may damage the electrodes.
