Installing the Cadence Sensor For a video tutorial, see Installing Polar Cadence Sensor at www.polar.com/en/polar_community/videos. To install the cadence sensor and cadence magnet, you need cutters. 1. Check the chain stay for a suitable place for the cadence sensor (picture 2 A on the front cover). Do not install the sensor on the same side as the chain. The Polar logo on the sensor should be facing away from the crank (picture 3 on the back cover). 2.
5. Fine-tune the positioning of the sensor so that the magnet passes close to the sensor without actually touching it (picture 3 on the back cover). Tilt the sensor towards the magnet so that the gap between the sensor and the magnet is under 4 mm/0.16’’. The gap is correct when you can fit a cable tie between the magnet and the sensor.
Cadence Sensor Pairing Your new cadence sensor must be paired with the receiving device in order to receive cadence data. For more information, see the user guidance material of the receiving device or mobile application. To ensure a good connection between your cadence sensor and the receiving device, it is recommended to keep the device in a bike mount on the handlebar. Care and Maintenance Keep the sensor clean. Clean it with a mild soap and water solution, and rinse off with clean water.
Cadence sensor battery The battery cannot be replaced. The sensor is sealed in order to maximize mechanical longevity and reliability. To purchase a new sensor, contact your authorized Polar Service or retailer. You can also purchase sensors online. Go to www.polar.com to find your own country's shoppolar online store. The battery level of your sensor is displayed on the receiving device if it supports Bluetooth® Battery Service.
