SETTING UP YOUR POLAR VERITY SENSE
We recommend that you charge the battery before you start using your Verity Sense. If the battery is
completely empty, it may take several minutes for the charging to start. See
for detailed
information on charging the battery.
Note that when your Verity Sense battery has enough power it will advertise itself to all
compatible receivers nearby.
