System Requirements:
The Polar training computer indicates the level of physiological strain and exercise intensity. It displays performance
indicators and environmental conditions such as altitude and temperature. It also measures speed and distance when used
with s3 stride sensor/cycling speed sensor/G3 GPS sensor, running cadence when used with s3 stride sensor, cycling
cadence when used with a cadence sensor, and location data when used with a G3 GPS sensor. No other use is intended
or implied.
The Polar training computer should not be used for obtaining environmental measurements that require professional or
industrial precision. Furthermore, the device should not be used to obtain measurements when engaged in airborne or
underwater activities.
The water resistance of Polar products is tested according to International Standard ISO 2281. Products
are divided into three different categories according to their water resistance. Check the back of your Polar
product for the water resistance category, and compare it to the chart below. Please note that these
definitions do not necessarily apply to products of other manufacturers.
Marking on case back
Water resistant
Water resistant 30 m/50 m
Water resistant 100 m
*These characteristics also apply to Polar WearLink W.I.N.D. transmitters marked Water resistant.
