3. BEFORE ACTIVITY
Daily Use
Your Polar AW200 Activity Watch can be worn on
the wrist at all times. Not only does it tell you the
time of day and date, but the surrounding
temperature and air pressure trend (BARO), as
well, helping you keep track of any changes in the
weather.
Altitude Measurement
Altitude measurement relies on a simple principle:
atmospheric pressure decreases as elevation
increases.
For accurate altitude readings, the device needs to
be calibrated first.

Altitude Calibration
To calibrate the altimeter, check your current

Alternatively, calibrate the barometer instead. For
this, see 'Barometer Calibration'.
