F. CARE AND
MAINTENANCE
Your Polar heart rate monitor is a high-tech instrument of
superior design and workmanship and should be treated with
care. The suggestions below will help you fulfill the guarantee
obligations and enjoy this product for many years to come.
Taking care of your Polar heart rate monitor
• Store your Polar heart rate monitor and transmitter in a cool and dry
place. Do not store it in any kind of non-breathing material, such as a
plastic bag or a sports bag if it is wet. Sweat and moisture can keep the
transmitters electrodes wet and the transmitter activated, which shortens
the battery life.
• Keep your Polar heart rate monitor and transmitter out of extreme cold
(below -10 ºC / 14 ºF) and heat (above +50 ºC / 122 ºF).
• Do not expose the Polar heart rate monitor and transmitter to direct
sunlight for extended periods, such as by leaving it in a car.
• Clean the connector regularly after use with a mild soap and water solution.
• Never use alcohol or any abrasive material such as steel wool or cleaning
chemicals on any part of the transmitter.
• Do not dry the connector in any other way than with a towel. Rough
handling may damage it.
