A fl ashing heart symbol indicates an ongoing heart rate 
measurement. The heart symbol fl ashes at the pace of your 
heart. The outline indicates that the heart rate reception is 
coded (FS2c/FS3c).
5.  In the Time of Day display, 
  press the front button to enter 
 the menu. EXE (Exercise) is 
  displayed. If you will need the 
  backlight during the exercise, 
  activate the night mode by 
  pressing and holding the front 
  button in the Time of Day 
 display (FS2c/FS3c).
6.  After three seconds the wrist 
  unit goes into Exercise mode 
  and the stopwatch starts. 
  The stopwatch is displayed 
  and the outline of the heart 
  symbol will fl ash until your 
  heart rate is detected. 
7.  Your heart rate and the heart 
 symbol will appear within 
 15 seconds.
Note: 
  • Please allow suffi cient time for signal pick up.
  • If the wrist unit does not receive your heart rate, the stopwatch 
    keeps running and the fl ashing heart frame symbol disappears.  
    Check that the transmitter electrodes are wet and that the 
    strap is snug enough.
  • If the code search was unsuccessful, the frame around the 
    heart symbol will disappear after 15 seconds. In order to 
    repeat the code search, bring the wrist unit close to the Polar 
    logo on the transmitter. If you still do not succeed in code 
    searching, but your heart rate is displayed and the heart 
    symbol without a frame 
 is fl ashing, you may start 
    exercising, but your wrist unit may be disturbed by other 
    heart rate monitors (FS2c/FS3c).
