Operation Manual

PC: Personal Computer. You can download your training information into a
computer for further analysis. A separate Polar Interface Plus is required.
Polar Coded Transmitter: Automatically picks a code to transmit your
heart rate to the Wrist Receiver. In coded transmission the Receiver accepts
heart rate information from your Polar Coded Transmitter only. Coding
reduces significantly crosstalk caused by other users of heart rate monitors,
however, it does not necessarily reduce all environmental interference.
Primary Time Display: In the Heart rate mode the middle row of the
display indicates either total exercising time, time of day or the timers
counting down according to your settings. See also Secondary Time
Display
Recording interval, INT: Records heart rate and speed data into the
memory in 5, 15 or 60 second intervals. Optionally also cadence and altitude
can be recorded in intervals.
Recovery Heart Rate, RECO HR: Decrease in heart rate during the
pre-set period of time.
Recovery Time, RECO TI: Time until certain pre-set heart rate reading is
reached.
Secondary Time Display: The Secondary Time Display can be activated
in Heart rate mode by bringing the face of the Wrist receiver next to the Polar
logo of the Transmitter for a moment. The middle row of the display will
indicate, according to your settings, either total exercising time, time of day
or the timers counting down. Note, that this function is not available in
Cycling mode. See also Primary Time Display.
Set: Set mode
Target Zone, TZ: The area between upper and lower target zone limits.
Target Zone selection is based on personal fitness goals.
Target Zone limits: Target Zone limits are determined as percentages of
maximum heart rate. The percentages are converted into heart rate in beats
per minute.
Time mode: Display showing Time of Day.
Timer 1, 2 & 3: Timers help you to divide your exercise session into
separate phases (e.g. warm-up, exercise phase, cool down). Timers can be
used individually (only Timer 1) or sequentially.
During heart rate measurement the TZ symbol with a flashing block
besides indicates that you are exercising within the Target Zone. In FILE
mode this indicates the time spent within the Target Zone.
During heart rate measurement the TZ symbol with a upper block
flashing indicates that the heart rate is above the Target Zone. In File mode
this indicates the time spent above the Target Zone.
Date: Indicates the date in Watch settings.
Del file x: Indicates the possibility to delete the newest file manually.
Electrodes: Pick up the heart’s electrical impulses and are encased in the
Transmitter, behind the two grooved areas.
End: Indicates the end of the file you are reviewing.
File: Indicates the File mode.
Full: Indicates that the memory has become full and you should delete files
to be able to continue recording.
Graphic bar: The graphic bar consists of four blocks and indicates
the settings of watch, heart rate or cycling functions. A flashing block means
that the setting of that particular function is possible.
Halt: Appears on the display to indicate that stopwatch is stopped after
99:59:59 hrs. This function is designed to save battery energy. Press
SELECT to continue.
Heart rate: The number of heart beats per minute (bpm).
LAP: In Measure and File modes together with a number indicates how
many lap times are used.
Lap/split time: Time needed to move once around a closed course or
track.
Left: Tells you the amount of memory left with each recording interval.
LIM 1 / LIM 2 / LIM 3: Heart Rate Limits for Target Zones 1, 2 and 3.
Lower Limit: The lower heart rate limit of the target zone
MAX: Together with a reading indicates either maximum heart rate or
maximum speed.
Measure: Measure mode
M: When starting the measurement, M together with a reading indicates
memory available.
Memory deletion: During the exercise period, you can record information
in the memory of the HRM. The number of exercising sessions is unlimited. If
the memory is getting full, make some room for the new files by erasing
manually the existing files starting from the most recent file. See Deleting
the most recent file.
MPH: Miles per hour
Odometer, ODO: Measures total distance.
