• Do you smoke?
• Are you pregnant?
Note that in addition to training intensity, medications for heart conditions, blood pressure, psychological
conditions, asthma, breathing, etc., as well as some energy drinks, alcohol, and nicotine may also affect
heart rate.
It is important to be sensitive to your body's responses during training. If you feel unexpected pain or
excessive fatigue when training, it is recommended that you stop the training or continue at a lighter
intensity.
Notice to individuals with pacemakers, defibrillators or other implanted electronic devices. Individuals
who have a pacemaker use the Polar training computer at their own risk. Before starting use, we always
recommend a maximal training stress test under a doctor's supervision. The test is to ensure the safety
and reliability of the simultaneous use of the pacemaker and the Polar training computer.
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 Technical Specifications (page 16). The
materials of this product have been tested and should not contain allergens or substances hazardous to
health. However, if symptoms do appear, stop using the product immediately. To avoid any skin reaction
to the transmitter, 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 a black color to come off the transmitter's
surface, possibly staining light-colored clothes. If you use perfume or insect repellent on your skin, you must
ensure that it does not come into contact with the training computer or the transmitter.

Interference During Training

Disturbance may occur near electrical devices. Also WLAN base stations may cause interference when
training with the training computer. To avoid erratic reading or misbehavior, move away from possible
sources of disturbance.
Training equipment with electronic or electrical components such as LED displays, motors and electrical
brakes may cause interfering stray signals. To solve these problems, try the following:
1.
Remove the transmitter from your chest and use the training equipment as you would normally.
2.
Move the training computer around until you find an area in which it displays no stray reading or does not
flash the heart symbol. Interference is often worst directly in front of the display panel of the equipment,
while the left or right side of the display is relatively free of disturbance.
3.
Put the transmitter back on your chest and keep the training computer in this interference-free area as
much as possible.
If the training computer still does not work with the training equipment, it may be electrically too noisy for
wireless heart rate measurement.

Troubleshooting

If you don't know where you are in the menu, press and hold the RED button until the time of day is
displayed.
If there are no reactions to any buttons or the Polar Move displays unusual readings, reset the heart rate
monitor by pressing four buttons (UP, DOWN, RED and LOCK) simultaneously for four seconds. The
display will go blank for a moment. Press the GREEN and
displayed. Enter time and date. With long press RED the display returns to time of day view. All other
settings except time and date will be saved.
If the heart rate reading becomes erratic, extremely high or shows nil (00), make sure that there are no
other heart rate transmitters within 1 m/3 ft and that the transmitter strap/the textile electrodes fit snugly
Please enter basic settings
