ENGLISH This user manual contains instructions for Polar Soft strap, and Polar H1 and H2 heart rate sensors. The model of your heart rate sensor is printed on the connector. The latest version of this user manual can be downloaded at www.polar.com/support. For video tutorials, go to www.polar.com/support/video_tutorials. Please follow the pictures on the front and back covers. Heart Rate Sensor Parts 1. 2. The plastic electrode areas on the reverse side of the strap detect heart rate. Picture A1.
5. Check that the moist electrode areas are firmly against your skin and that the Polar logo of the connector is in a central and upright position. Picture B4. Detach the connector from the strap and rinse the strap under running water after every use. Sweat and moisture may keep the electrodes wet and the heart rate sensor activated. This will reduce the battery life. See detailed washing instructions in the Caring for Your Heart Rate Sensor section.
Connector: Detach the connector from the strap after every use and dry the connector with a soft towel. Clean the connector with a mild soap and water solution when needed. Never use alcohol or any abrasive material (eg. steel wool or cleaning chemicals). Strap: Rinse the strap under running water after every use and hang to dry. Clean the strap gently with a mild soap and water solution when needed. Do not use moisturizing soaps, because they can leave residue on the strap.
Changing Battery All connectors have user changeable batteries. To change the battery yourself, follow the instructions below, and see the markings on the connector and pictures on the back cover of this user manual. 1. 2. 3. 4. Lever the battery cover open by using the clip on the strap. Picture C1. Remove the old battery from the battery cover with a suitable sized small ridgid stick or bar, such as a toothpick. A non-metal tool is preferable. Be careful not to damage the battery cover. Picture C2.
Precautions For allergy information, see the listed materials in Technical Specifications. Avoid skin reactions by wearing the heart rate sensor over a shirt, moistened under the electrodes. 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 heart rate sensor.
