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 Polar 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 Polar transmitter. This may damage the
electrodes.
• Keep your Polar Heart Rate Monitor out of extreme cold (below -10 C/
14 F) and heat (above 50 C/122 F).
• Do not expose the Polar Heart Rate Monitor to direct sunlight for
extended periods, such as by leaving it in a car.

PROXT GBR/E
38-39
POLAR PROTRAINER XT RECEIVER
The estimated average battery life of the Polar Protrainer XT receiver is 1
year in normal use (1h/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. Note also that
excessive use of the backlight and the alarm signals will use the battery
more rapidly.
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.
