6. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your Polar Weight Management Product is a high-tech instrument and should be treated with care. The suggestions below
will help you fulfill the guarantee obligations.
Taking care of your Polar Weight Management Product
•Wash the transmitter regularly after use with a mild soap and water solution. Dry it carefully after washing with a soft
towel. Keep the wrist unit clean and wipe off any moisture.
• Never store the transmitter wet. Sweat and moisture can keep its electrodes wet and the transmitter activated, which
shortens the battery life.
• Store your Weight Management Product 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.
• Do not dry the transmitter in any other way than with a towel. Mishandling may damage the electrodes.
• Keep your Weight Management Product out of extreme cold and heat. The operating temperature is 14 °F to 122 °F/
-10 °C to +50 °C.
• Do not expose the Weight Management Product to direct sunlight for extended periods, such as by leaving it in a car.
Transmitter Batteries
The estimated average battery life of the transmitter is 2500 hours of use. Contact your authorized Polar Service Center for a
replacement transmitter. Polar recycles used transmitters. See your Customer Care and Registration Card for detailed
instructions.
