Polar Heart Rate Monitor uses multiple methods for

determining your OwnZone. The primary method is based

on measuring and analysing the heart rate variability

during graded exercise (OZ.V).

If your heart rate exceeds the safety limit during the

determination, Polar Heart Rate Monitor picks up your

latest OwnZone definition based on heart rate variability

(OZ.L). Alternatively, if there is no previous determination

in memory, OwnZone limits, which are based on your age

predicted maximum heart rate (OZ.A), will be used. These

methods ensure that the safest possible exercise zone is

determined for you.

The method used in defining the OwnZone is indicated

after the two beeps as follows:

1. OZ.V (OwnZone Variability) and the currently

determined OwnZone limits appear on the

illuminated display.

2. OZ.L (OwnZone Latest) and your previously

determined OwnZone limits appear on the

illuminated display.

3. OZ.A (OwnZone Age) and your age-predicted

heart rate limits appear on the illuminated display.
