or if you experience any unusual sensations while using Polar products, please consult your physician or contact the
implanted electronic device manufacturer to determine safety in your case.
If you are allergic to any substance that comes into contact with your skin or if you suspect an allergic reaction due to
using the product, check the listed materials in
the product and consult your physician. Also inform Polar Customer Care about your skin reaction. To avoid any skin
reaction to the heart rate sensor, wear it over a shirt, but moisten the shirt well under the electrodes to ensure flawless
operation.
The combined impact of moisture and intense abrasion may cause color to come off the heart rate
sensor's or wristband's surface, possibly staining light-colored clothes. It may also cause a darker color to
come off clothing, possibly staining lighter-colored training devices. To keep a light-colored training device
glowing for years to come, please make sure the clothing you wear while training does not bleed color. If
you use perfume, lotion, suntan/sunscreen or insect repellent on your skin, you must ensure that it does
not come into contact with the training device or the heart rate sensor. If you train in cold conditions (-20 °C
to -10 °C / -4 °F to 14 °F) we recommend that you wear the training device under the sleeve of your jacket,
directly on your skin.
WARNING - KEEP BATTERIES OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
Polar heart rate sensors (for example H10 and H9) contain a button cell battery. If the button cell battery is swallowed, it
can cause severe internal burns in as little as 2 hours and can lead to death. Keep new and used batteries away from
children. If the battery compartment does not close securely, stop using the product and keep it away from children. If
you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate medical
attention.
Your safety is important to us. The shape of the Polar stride sensor Bluetooth® Smart is designed to minimize the
possibility of if getting caught in something. In any case, be careful when running with the stride sensor in brushwood,
for example.
HOW TO USE YOUR POLAR PRODUCT SECURELY
Polar offers a
minimum of five years of product support service
Product support service includes necessary firmware updates to Polar devices and fixes for critical vulnerability as
required. Polar constantly monitors the releases of known vulnerabilities. Please update your Polar product regularly,
and as soon as the Polar Flow mobile application or Polar FlowSync computer software informs you about the
availability of a new firmware version.
Training session data and other data saved on your Polar device include sensitive information about you such as your
name, physical information, overall health and location. Location data can be used to track you when you are out
training and to find out what your usual routes are. For these reasons use extra caution when storing your device when
not using it.
If you use phone notifications on your wrist device, be aware that messages from certain applications will be projected
on the wrist device display. Your latest messages can also be viewed from the device menu. To ensure the
confidentiality of your private messages, refrain from using the phone notifications feature.
Before handing the device over to a third party for testing or before selling it, it is necessary to perform a factory reset
on the device, and to remove the device from your Polar Flow account. A factory reset can be performed with the
FlowSync software on your computer. A factory reset will clear the device memory, and the device cannot be linked to
your data anymore. To remove the device from your Polar Flow account, sign into the Polar Flow web service, choose
products and click the "Remove" button next to the product you wish to remove.
The same training sessions are also stored on your mobile device with the Polar Flow application. For extra security,
various security enhancing options can be enabled on your mobile device such as strong authentication and device
encryption. Consult the user manual of your mobile device for instructions on enabling these options.
