Caring for Your Polar RS300X
Like any electronic device, the Polar training computer
should be treated with care. The suggestions below will
help you fulfill guarantee obligations and enjoy this
product for many years to come.
Detach the transmitter connector from the strap and rinse
the strap under running water after every use. Dry the
connector with a soft towel. Never use alcohol or any
abrasive material (steel wool or cleaning chemicals).
Wash the strap regularly in a washing machine at
40ºC/104ºF or at least after every fifth use. This ensures
reliable measurement and maximizes the life span of the
transmitter. Use a washing pouch. Do not soak, spin-dry,
iron, dry clean or bleach the strap. Do not use detergent
with bleach or fabric softener. Never put the transmitter
connector in the washing machine or drier!
Dry and store the strap and the transmitter connector
separately to maximize the transmitter battery lifetime.
Wash the strap in a washing machine before long-term
storage and always after use in pool water with high
chlorine content.
Keep your training computer and transmitter in a cool and
dry place. Do not keep them in a damp environment, in
non-breathable material (a plastic bag or a sports bag) nor
with conductive material (a wet towel). The training
computer and transmitter are water resistant, and can be
used in water activities. Other compatible sensors are
water resistant, and can be used in rainy weather. Do not
expose the training computer to direct sunlight for
extended periods, such as by leaving it in a car or
mounted on the bike mount.
Keep your training computer clean. To maintain the water
resistance, do not wash the training computer with a
pressure washer. Clean the training computer with a mild
soap and water solution and rinse it with clean water. Do
not immerse it in water. Dry it carefully with a soft towel.
Never use alcohol or any abrasive material such as steel
wool or cleaning chemicals.
Avoid hard hits to the training computer, as these may
damage the sensor units.
