Although there are many subjective clues as to how your body is doing during exercise (perceived exertion,

breathing rate, physical sensations), none of them are as reliable as measuring heart rate. It is objective and

affected by both internal and external factors—meaning you will have a dependable measure of your physical

state.

STARTING A TRAINING SESSION

See

Navigating the Polar app

1. Open the Polar app by pressing the front button of your M600. Note that you must exit any other apps

first.

2. Press the front button to open Training and to see your list of sport profiles.

3. Flick your wrist in or out to scroll the list of sport profiles and to find the one you want to use. Stay in this

pre-training mode until the M600 has found your heart rate and the GPS satellite signals (if applicable to

your sport) to make sure your training data is accurate.

The heart icon begins to display your heart rate when it's detected.

If a sport profile supports GPS-tracking, the GPS icon is displayed. To catch the GPS satellite signals, go

outdoors and away from tall buildings and trees. For best GPS performance, wear the M600 on your wrist

with the display facing up. Keep it in a horizontal position in front of you and away from your chest. Keep

your arm stationary and raised above the level of your chest during the search. Stand still and hold the

position until the M600 has found the satellite signals.

Due to the location of the GPS antenna on the M600, it is not recommended to wear it with the display

on the underside of your wrist. If you wear it on the handlebars of a bike, make sure the display is facing

up. For more information on the GPS, see GPS.

The green circle around the GPS will stop rotating when the GPS signal is found.

4. To begin a training session, press the front button on your chosen sport profile.

Note that you need to give the Polar app on your M600 permission to track your location and to measure your

heart rate if you want to view information based on these measurements in your training data.
