The training device should not be used for obtaining environmental measurements that require
professional or industrial precision.
We recommend that once in a while you wash the device and the armband to avoid any skin problems
from a dirty armband.
INTERFERENCE DURING TRAINING
Electromagnetic Interference and Training Equipment
Disturbance may occur near electrical devices. Also WLAN base stations may cause interference when
training with the training device. To avoid erratic reading or misbehavior, move away from possible
sources of disturbance.
Training equipment with electronic or electrical components such as LED displays, motors and electrical
brakes may cause interfering stray signals.
If the training device still does not work with the training equipment, it may be electrically too noisy for
wireless heart rate measurement. For further information, see
.
MINIMIZING RISKS WHEN TRAINING
Training may include some risk. Before beginning a regular training program, it is recommended that you
answer the following questions concerning your health status. If you answer yes to any of these questions,
we recommend that you consult a doctor before starting any training program.

Note that in addition to training intensity, medications for heart conditions, blood pressure, psychological
conditions, asthma, breathing, etc., as well as some energy drinks, alcohol, and nicotine may also affect
heart rate.
It is important to be sensitive to your body’s responses during training.
If you feel unexpected pain or
excessive fatigue when training, it is recommended that you stop the training or continue at a lighter
intensity.
Note!
If you are using a pacemaker, you can use Polar products. In theory interference to pacemaker
caused by Polar products should not be possible. In practice no reports exist to suggest anyone ever
having experienced interference. We cannot however issue an official guarantee on our products’
suitability with all pacemakers or other implanted devices due to the variety of devices available. If you
