TRAINING WITH YOUR V800

When you use our heart rate sensors when training, you get the most out of Polar’s unique smart coaching features. Heart rate data gives you an insight into your physical condition and how your body responds to training. This will help you fi ne-tune your training plans and reach your peak performance.

TRAINING WITH HEART RATE

If you bought your V800 without a heart rate sensor, not to worry, you can always buy one later.

1. Moisten the electrode area of the strap.

2. Attach the connector to the strap.

3. Tie the strap around your chest, just below the chest muscles, and adjust the strap to fi t tightly but comfortably.

Detach the connector from the strap, and rinse the strap under running water after every training session.

Sweat and moisture may keep the heart rate sensor activated, so also remember to wipe it dry.

Before your fi rst training session, you need to pair the heart rate sensor with your V800. Wear your heart rate sensor, press START and touch the sensor with your V800, then wait for the sensor pairing request and choose Yes.

You can also pair a new sensor in Settings > General settings> Pair

and sync > Pair new device.

START TRAINING

Press START and choose your sport. Wait for all the needed sensors to be found and press START again when you’re ready to go.

When using GPS, stand still with the display facing upwards until the signal is found. When the signal is found, OK is displayed.

DURING TRAINING

In addition to heart rate, your V800 measures comprehensive data such as training time, calories, speed, distance, location and altitude.
