Feature Settings
A new sensor purchased as a separate accessory has to be introduced to the training computer. This is
called teaching and takes only a few seconds. Teaching ensures that your training computer receives
signals from your sensor only, and enables disturbance-free exercise in a group. If you have purchased the
sensor and the training computer as a set, the sensor has already been “taught” to work together with the
training computer. You just need to activate the sensor in your training computer.
When you activate a sensor in feature settings, Teach new sensor? is displaeyd. You can teach a new
sensor by selecting Yes. Select No if the sensor has already been taught.
To teach a separately purchased H3 heart rate sensor, see Teach a New Heart Rate Sensor (page ).
Polar s3/s3+ Stride Sensor W.I.N.D.
To activate the stride sensor in your training computer, select Settings > Features > Shoes/bikes > Shoe
1/2/3 > On. Teach new sensor? is displayed.
If your sensor is already taught, select No.
If your sensor has not been taught yet, select Yes.
Before teaching, make sure that there are no other s3/s3+ stride sensors or G3/G5 GPS sensors nearby (40 m/131
ft). The sensor should be within 1,5 meters/5 ft of the training computer. Before entering a running event, for
example, make sure to perform the teaching process at home, first. This is to prevent interference due to the
long-range data transmission.

computer is now ready to receive speed and distance data.
