How to get started
Set up your new Polar M460 in the Polar Flow web service. The M460 is in storage mode, and it wakes up in the setup. To get the most accurate and personal training data, it’s important that you’re precise with the settings in the setup.
1. Go to flow.polar.com/start and download the Polar FlowSync software, which you need to connect your M460 to the Flow web service.
2. Open the installation package and follow the on-screen instructions for installing the software.
3. Once the installation is complete, FlowSync opens automatically and asks you to connect your Polar product.
4. Plug in your M460 to your computer’s USB port with the USB cable. It may take a few minutes for your M460 to wake up and start charging.
Let your computer install any suggested USB drivers.
5. The Flow web service will be opened automatically in your internet browser. Create a Polar account or sign in if you already have one.
6. Click Done to synchronize your settings between the M460 and the
Polar Flow web service. FlowSync status will change to completed, once the synchronization is done.
7. If there’s a firmware update available for your M460, we recommend you install it during the setup.
Do not charge the device when the USB port is wet.
