How do I start using my M600?
The Polar M600 sports watch works with smartphones running Android 4.3+ or iOS 8.2+, and
that's why the first time setup of your M600 needs to be done with a compatible mobile device.
Android phone users need to make sure that the Google Play services and Google Search apps on
your phone are up to date.
You'll need your phone's Bluetooth to be turned on, and your phone needs to be connected to the
Internet. The setup process includes pairing your M600 with the Android Wear mobile app and
activating the Polar app on your smartwatch.
For a successful setup, follow
these detailed instructions
from the user manual. You can also take

this video tutorial on Getting started with
M600.
My M600 won't start, what can I do?
If your M600 won't turn on, it's probably because the battery is empty.
Plug the M600 into a charger. You'll know the battery is charging if you see an icon of a filling
battery appearing on the screen of your M600 for a short while after you plug it into the charger.
After you've charged the battery, press and hold the side power button until you see the Polar
logo on the screen.
If your M600 still doesn't turn on, contact your
local customer service
for repair.
Why can't I open the Polar app on my M600?
You can't use the training and activity features of the Polar app on your M600 before you've
activated the app.
If you press the front button or tap the Polar app in the apps menu to open it and see a card
telling you to "Get started. Swipe left to get Polar Flow app on your mobile." (on Android
phones) or "Get started. Get Polar Flow app on your mobile from the App Store" (on iPhones) it
means you haven't completed the setup process and activated the Polar app on your M600.
To activate the Polar app on your M600
Go through the following steps on your phone while keeping the M600 close by:
1. Download and install the Polar Flow app to your phone, or if you already have the app on your
phone, make sure it's the latest version.
