The Polar M460 has an internal, rechargeable battery. Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles. You

can charge and discharge the battery over 300 times before a notable decrease in its capacity. The number of charge cycles

also varies according to use and operating conditions.

At the end of the working life of the product Polar encourages you to minimize possible effects of waste on the environment

and human health by following local waste disposal regulations and, where possible, utilizing separate collection of elec-

tronic devices. Do not dispose of this product as unsorted municipal waste.

The Polar H10 heart rate sensor has a user changeable battery. To change the battery yourself, please follow the instruc-

tions carefully as instructed in

Keep the batteries away from children. If swallowed, contact a doctor immediately. Batteries should be disposed of properly

according to local regulations.

To change the battery of the heart rate sensor yourself, carefully follow the instructions below:

When changing the battery, make sure the sealing ring is not damaged, in which case you should replace it with a new one.

You can purchase the sealing ring/battery kits at well-equipped Polar retailers and authorized Polar Services. In the USA

and Canada, the additional sealing rings are available at authorized Polar Service Centers. In the USA the sealing ring/bat-

tery kits are also available at www.polar.com/us-en.

When handling a new, fully charged battery, avoid clasp-like contact, i.e. simultaneously from both sides, with metal or elec-

trically conducting tools, like tweezers. This may short circuit the battery, causing it to discharge more rapidly. Typically,

short circuiting does not damage the battery, but it may decrease the capacity and the lifetime of the battery.

1. Lever the battery cover open by using

a small flat-headed tool.

2. Remove the old battery from the bat-

tery cover.

3. Insert the new battery (CR2025)

inside the cover with the negative (-)

side outwards.

4. Align the ledge on the battery cover

with the slot on the connector and

press the battery cover back into

place. You should hear a snap.

For safety reasons, please ensure you use the correct battery (CR2025).
