Start A Training Session; Functions In Pre-Training Mode - Polar Electro Vantage M User Manual

START A TRAINING SESSION

When you're wearing a Polar heart rate sensor that's paired with your watch, the watch auto-
matically uses the connected sensor to measure your heart rate during training sessions. A blue circle
around the heart rate symbol indicates that your watch uses the connected sensor to measure your
heart rate.
See During Training for more information on what you can do with your watch during training.
