ENGLISH
• Are you recovering from a serious illness or medical treatment?
• Do you use a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device?
• 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.
Note! If you are using a pacemaker, you can use Polar training computers. In theory interference to
pacemaker caused by Polar products should not be possible. In practice no reports exist to suggest anyone
ever having experienced interference. We cannot however issue an official guarantee on our products'
suitability with all pacemakers or other implanted devices due to the variety of devices available. If you
have any doubts, 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 Technical Specifications (page 56). 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.
Your safety is important to us. The shape of the s3+ stride sensor* is designed to minimize the possibility
of it getting caught in something. In any case, be careful when running with the stride sensor in
brushwood, for example.
The combined impact of moisture and intense abrasion may cause a black color to come off the heart rate sensor'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 heart rate sensor.
WARNING: This product and its packaging contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause
