Polar RC3 GPS Receiver User Manual


 
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.
If you train in cold conditions (-20 °C to -10 °C / -4
°F to 14 °F ) we recommend that you wear the
training computer under the sleeve of your jacket,
directly on your skin.
Disturbance may occur near electrical
devices. Also WLAN base stations may cause
interference when training with Polar training
computer. To avoid erratic reading or
misbehaviors, move away from possible sources
of disturbance. For further information, see
