USE OF THE CHEST BAND
(Pulse sensor)
The chest band
transmits the pulse rate by contact
with the chest and sends signal to the
display clock.
PRECAUTION. Before beginning any
exercise program, you should consult
to your doctor and tell him about the
intensity of the exercise. If you use a
pacemaker do not use the band until
you have consulted with your doctor.
ASSEMBLY AND USE OF THE
CHEST BAND
The key to
measurement is putting the transmitter
on correctly as described below.
1. Attach the chest transmitter (E) to
the elastic belt (F).
2. Adjust the strap (F) to fit tightly and
comfortable.
3. Secure the strap (F) around your
chest, below the breasts and lock the
buckle.
4. Without detaching the elastic strip
(F), pull the transmitter away from
your body exposing the two grooved
areas that are located on the inside of
the transmitter. Wet the grooved
electrode areas with saliva, contact
lens solution or any other saline
solution. Return to its original position
(optional

against your skin with the Polar text in
a central up-right position.
5. After wetting the electrodes, do not
slide the transmitter around on your
body as this has the effect of drying
the electrodes.
It is

successful opera-tion. If a transmitter
is worn over a shirt, the shirt has to be

to ensure proper conductivity.
Wear the band as high as possible
just below the breast bone with the
transmitter in the centre and the
electrode contacts flat against the
skin. Doing this correctly assures a
correct reading of the heart beat.
HOW TO IMPROVE
CONDUCTIVITY
The technology used for the chest
transmitters is based on measuring
ECG signals operation, it is important
rate
for successful heart rate measurement
that a proper electrical connection
between the skin and the electrodes of
Polar Transmitter can be established
and
Sometimes, dry skin or hairy chest
can create a non-conductive layer
between the electro-desand chest
which prevents proper and reliable
operation of transmitter.
Conductivity can be easily improved
through properly wetting properly the
electrodes by water, saliva, contact
lens solution or other saline solution.
