can it be affected by electromagnetic
interference. These can cause incorrect
readings on your chest band.
Sources of interference or situations that
can cause Incorrect readings are:
-Your monitor picks up signals in a radius
of approximately 30 inches. If you are
carrying out exercises too near to
another person that is wearing a chest
band, your screen can pick up their
signal. To avoid this, maintain the
appropriate distance.
-Television set, computers, cellular
telephones, lines of high tension and
electric motors can produce Interference.
If you observe an erratic reading move
away from the interference source. Your
chest band will then return to work
correctly. It is important to place the
chest band correctly to obtain a correct
reading.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF THE
TRANSMITTER
-To maintain a proper
level of operation, the transmitter has to
be cleaned regularly after use with a mild
soap and water solution. If you, however,
want to disinfect your transmitter after
use, a chlorine solution similar to that
approved for pool swimming may be
used. Please avoid untested disinfecting
compounds, they may cause permanent
damage to the transmitter. After
disinfecting, the transmitter should be
cleaned by water or soap solution to
avoid allergic reactions on skin.
- After using, clean and dry your unit
carefully. A weak signal can be due to
dirt.
- Do not expose your band to excessive
heat or cold.
- Do not leave your unit exposed to direct
sunlight or in your car
- Keep your unit in a well ventilated
place.
Note. Never use abrasives and other
chemicals as they may cause permanent
damage to the electrodes decreasing
conductivity or durability.
Storing of transmitter. It is highly
recommended to store the transmitter in
a cool and dry place to maximize the
battery life. Before storage all moisture
should be wiped off.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
Question 1:
Heart rate readings take a long time to
appear.
Answer 1:
If the heart rate readings start appearing
after you start perspiring, this is an
indication that the transmitter electrodes
weren’t initially wetted properly prior to
commencing the exercise.
Question 2:
If there is no heart rate reading, please
check the following things:
Answer 2:
a) The transmitter should be placed on
the rib cage just below the breasts with
the word “Polar” facing out, reading right
side up.
b) With the transmitter in position and
reasonably tight around the chest of the
user, pull the transmitter away from the
body and wet the electrodes with water,
saliva, contact solution or other saline
solution.
c) If the readings still fail to appear,
please have someone else try the
transmitter on and see if that person can
get it to work.
d) The following medical conditions may
create problems:
•Premature ventricular contractions,
tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmias can
result in strange or no heart rate
readings.
•If the user has an implanted medical
device such as a pacemaker, you must
consult your physician prior to using the
Polar Transmitter.
e) The ECG signal perceived by the
transmitter is too weak for successful
measurement. Heart diseases, heart
surgeries or natural characteristics of a
heart may result in weak ECG signals. In
many cases, where a weak ECG signal
is the reason for problems, reliable
operation can be obtained by moving the
transmitter a little bit to the left or right.
Remember to rewet electrodes.
f) Electromagnetic interference. Polar
transmission can be affected by high
