Polar Heart Strap

Purpose
The ActiTrainer Solution comes with one Polar Wearlink® heart monitor strap. This strap can be worn when
desired to log heart rate activity data on the ActiTrainer. In normal lifestyle mode, heart rate data can be added to
the list of scroll parameters so that the user can see average, peak and instantaneous beats per minute while wearing
the heart strap. In workout mode, the same data is available. When uploading data to the Virtual Trainer (see
"Virtual
Trainer" below), heart rate data shows up as a red line overlaid on the activity data. When viewing workout
data, this is very useful for determining heart rate recovery time and peak heart rate during the workout.
Wearing the Polar Chest Strap
1. Moisten the electrode areas of the strap under running water.
2. Attach the connector to the strap. Position the letter L on the
connector next to the word LEFT on the strap and snap the
fastener.
3. Adjust the strap length to fit snugly and comfortably. Secure the
strap around your chest, just below your chest muscles, and snap the
second fastener.
4. Check that the wet electrode areas are firmly against your skin and
that the Polar logo of the connector is in a central, upright position.
