Minimizing Risks When Training
Training may include some risk. Before beginning a regular training program, answer the following
questions concerning your health status. If you answer yes to any of these questions, consult a physician
before starting any training program.
• Have you been physically inactive for the past 5 years?
• Do you have high blood pressure or high blood cholesterol?
• Are you taking any blood pressure or heart medication?
• Do you have a history of breathing problems?
• Do you have symptoms of any disease?
• Are you recovering from a serious illness or medical treatment?
• Do you use a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device?
• Do you smoke?
• Are you pregnant?
In addition to exercise 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 exercise. If you feel unexpected pain or
excessive fatigue when exercising, it is recommended that you stop the exercise or continue at a lighter
intensity.
Note! If you are using a pacemaker, you can use Polar training computers. 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
have any doubts, or if you experience any unusual sensations while using Polar products, please consult
your physician or contact the implanted electronic device manufacturer to determine safety in your case.
If you are allergic to any substance that comes into contact with your skin or if you suspect an allergic
reaction due to using the product, check the listed materials in Technical Specifications. To avoid any
skin reaction to the heart rate sensor, wear it over a shirt, but moisten the shirt well under the electrodes
to ensure flawless operation.
The combined impact of moisture and intense abrasion may cause a black color to come off the heart rate sensor’s
surface, possibly staining light-colored clothes. If you use perfume or insect repellent on your skin, you must
ensure that it does not come into contact with the training computer or the heart rate sensor.
Training equipment with electronic components may cause interfering stray signals. To tackle these
problems, try the following:
1. Remove the heart rate sensor from your chest and use the training equipment as you would normally.
2. Move the training computer around until you find an area in which it displays no stray reading or does not
flash the heart symbol. Interference is often worst right in front of the display panel of the equipment,
while the left or right side of the display is relatively free of disturbance.
3. Put the heart rate sensor back on your chest and keep the training computer in this interference-free area
as much as possible.
If the FT60 still does not work, the piece of equipment may be electrically too noisy for wireless heart rate
measurement.
Polar FT60 may be worn when swimming. To maintain water resistance, do not press buttons under water.
For more information, visit http://www.polar.com/support. Water resistance of Polar products is tested
according to International Standard ISO 2281. Products are divided into three categories according to
their water resistance. Check the back of your Polar product for the water resistance category, and
compare it to the chart below. Please note that these definitions do not necessarily apply to products of
other manufacturers.
