TRAINING
WEAR THE HEART RATE SENSOR
1. Moisten the electrode areas of the strap.
2. Attach the connector to the strap.
3. Adjust the strap length to fit tightly but comfortably. Tie the strap around your chest, just below the chest muscles, and attach the hook to the other end of the strap.
4. Check that the moist electrode areas are firmly against your skin and that the Polar logo of the connector is in a central and upright position.
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.

If you have turned on GPS in the profile you chose, the V650 automatically starts searching for the GPS satellite signals.
Keep your V650 still with the display facing upwards during the search. It typically takes 30-60 seconds the first time. In future it should take only a few seconds.
The V650 is ready once the green circle around GPS is static.
After finding the satellites, the V650 calibrates the altitude.
Altitude calibration complete
tells you that the calibration is ready. To make sure that the altitude remains accurate, calibrate your V650 manually whenever a reliable reference, such as a peak or a topographic map, is available or when at sea level. To calibrate manually, press the side button and choose
Calibrate altitude
. Then, set the altitude of your current location.

BACK TO START
The Back to start feature guides your way back to the starting point. When the V650 finds the GPS satellite signals in the beginning of the training session, your location is saved as a starting point.
When it is time to return to your starting point, do the following: l
Browse to the BACK TO START-view.
l
Keep moving in order for the V650 to determine which direction you are going. An arrow will point in the direction of your starting point.
