GETTING STARTED INTRODUCTION TO THE POLAR M600 Congratulations on your new Polar M600! Polar M600 combines the best of both worlds: leading heart rate technology and the power of Android Wear™. It's perfect for tracking your training and 24/7 activity with the Polar app. The Polar M600 sports watch works with smartphones running Android™ 4.3+ or iOS® 8.2+. iPhone users need to have at least model 5 or later. You can visit g.co/WearCheck on your phone to see if it’s compatible with Android Wear.
BUTTON FUNCTIONS ON THE M600 The Polar M600 has two buttons: the front button and the side power button. 1. Front button 2. Side power button 3. Touchscreen FRONT BUTTON The front button is a handy way to use the Polar app throughout your training session.
CHARGING THE M600 The M600 has an internal, rechargeable battery. Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles.

You can charge your M600 via a computer’s USB port with the charging cable provided to you in the sales package.
BATTERY OPERATING TIME The battery operating time is • 2 days / 8 hours of training on M600 paired with an Android phone. • 1 day / 8 hours of training on M600 paired with an iPhone. The operating time depends on many factors, such as the temperature of the environment in which you use your M600, the features you use, if the screen is in the Always-on mode, and battery aging. The operating time is significantly reduced in temperatures well below freezing.
3. Swipe left on the touchscreen of your M600 to begin the setup, then swipe up or down to find and tap the language of your choice.

But you should tighten it up for your training sessions to make sure you get accurate heart rate readings from the wrist. If you have tattoos on the skin of your wrist, avoid placing the sensor right on it as it may prevent accurate readings. It's a good idea to warm up the skin under the sensor if your hands and skin get cold easily.
The heart icon begins to display your heart rate when it’s detected. If a sport profile supports GPS-tracking, the GPS icon is displayed. To catch the GPS satellite signals, go outdoors and away from tall buildings and trees. For best GPS performance, wear the M600 on your wrist with the display facing up.

POLAR FEATURES 24/7 ACTIVITY TRACKING The Polar app on your M600 tracks your activity with a 3D accelerometer that records your wrist movements. It analyzes the frequency, intensity and regularity of your movements together with your physical information, allowing you to see how active you really are in your everyday life, on top of your regular training.

Your sleep time is the longest continuous rest time that takes place within 24 hours starting from 18:00/6pm to next day’s 18:00/6pm. Breaks shorter than one hour in your sleep don't stop sleep tracking, but they are not taken into account in the sleep time. Breaks longer than 1 hour stop sleep time tracking. The periods when you sleep peacefully and don’t move a lot are calculated as restful sleep. The periods when you move and change your position are calculated as restless sleep.
HEART RATE ZONES Polar heart rate zones introduce a new level of effectiveness in heart rate-based training. Training is divided into five heart rate zones based on percentages of maximum heart rate. With heart rate zones, you can easily select and monitor training intensities. Target zone Intensity % of HRmax* Example: Heart rate zones** Example dur- Training effect ations MAXIMUM Benefits: Maximal or near maximal effort for breathing and muscles.
Target zone Intensity % of HRmax* Example: Heart rate zones** Example dur- Training effect ations assists recovery. minutes Feels like: Very easy, little strain. Recommended for: For recovery and cooldown, throughout training season. * HRmax = Maximum heart rate (220-age). ** Heart rate zones (in beats per minute) for a 30-years-old person, whose maximum heart rate is 190 bpm (220–30). Training in heart rate zone 1 is done at a very low intensity.
