For recreational runners and cyclists who want smart guidance while preparing for an event.Heart Rate Features:- Measuring Range (15-240)- Average and maximum heart rate of each lap- Average, minimum and maximum heart rate of training- Heart rate – bpm/% - Heart rate is the measurement of the work your heart does. Heart rate can be expressed as the number of beats per minute (bpm) or as a percentage (%) of your maximum heart rate.- HRmax (age-based) - The highest number of heart beats per minute (bpm) during maximum physical exertion. For a rough estimate of your maximum heart rate, subtract your age from 220. HRmax is a useful tool for determining the intensity of training as intensity zones can be defined using HRmax. Some Polar products define maximum heart rate during the Polar Fitness Test, see also HRmax (Polar Fitness Test -based).- HRmax (user set)Training Features:- Automatic lap recording - With this feature you can set your training computer to take laps based on preset distance, for example, every 1 km/mi.- Fitness Test - Tells you exactly what you need to know in just five minutes by regularly comparing your test results, you can see what progress you are making and how your fitness is improving.- Training Benefit - You get a quick overview after each session. For more detailed feedback, you can either check your training file or go to polarpersonaltrainer.com for further in-depth analysis.Target Zone Features:- Graphical target zone indicator - This feature points out graphically on the display the zone you are in during a training session helping you to stay on the desired intensity zone.- Number of laps – 99- Sport Profiles (4 fixed sport profiles) - Sport Profiles provide true multisport support with a swift switch between different sports during training. This feature allows the training computer to modify all sport-specific settings and detect the needed sensors automatically, so you will not lose any time or training data. With just a few button presses, you can change from one sport to another, for example in triathlon.- ZoneLock - Helps you to accumulate certain intensity. You can either lock a zone before a training session or during it by pressing a button when you are on the desired zone.- ZoneOptimizer - Get the exact training effect you're looking for as the feature adjusts your five heart rate training zones to perfectly match your body's current physiological condition.- ZonePointer - A visible and moving symbol on the training computer display indicating whether you are inside the pre-set target zone. This feature helps you to reach the desired intensity/pace/speed/cadence targets- Polar sport zonesPolar sport zones provide an easy way to select and monitor the intensity of your training and to follow sport zones based training programs. Training is divided into five zones based on percentages of your maximum heart rate: very light (50-60%HRmax), light (60-70%HRmax), moderate (70-80%HRmax), hard (80-90%HRmax) and maximum (90-100%HRmax)Calorie Features:- OwnCal - It calculates the number of calories expended during a training session based on your weight, height, age, gender, your individual maximum heart rate (HRmax) and how hard you're training.- Advanced training analyzing using Polarpersonaltrainer.com - You can easily analyze each of your training sessions in the training result view. In addition to many useful details about your training, the Curve illustrates graphically the data from the sensors that you used while training.

By selecting a week, you can review your training data for the week.Transmission Features:- Polar OwnCode (2.4 GHz W.I.N.D.) – Coded heart rate transmission automatically locks in a code to transmit your heart rate to the training computer. The training computer picks up your heart rate from your transmitter only. Coding significantly reduces interference from other training computers. The 2.4 GHz W.I.N.D transmission is disturbance-free from other electronic devices.- Running Index - The Running Index score is calculated automatically after every run, based on your heart rate and from the speed data collected from your GPS or stride sensor. A higher reading indicates that you can run faster with less effort.Display Features:- Backlight- KeyLock - By activating KeyLock, training computer buttons are locked, and accidental presses do not cause problems, for instance, during training.- Training computer settings - You can edit your training computer settings with the WebSync software.- Display text in English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Danish, Finnish, Norwegian and Swedish- Units displayed in metric (kg/cm) or imperial (lb/ft)Time/Date/Alarm Features:- Date, Weekday- Dual time zone- Stopwatch- Time in 12/24 hour format- Alarm - Monday to Friday or Every day- Snooze AlarmBattery Features:- Training Computer Battery Type - CR2025- H3 Transmitter Battery Type - CR2025- Low battery indicator- User replaceable- Training Computer Battery life - Average 8 months / 2000 hours.- Power Save Mode - During the night, in between the hours 24:00 - 06:00 / 12:00am - 06:00am, the training computer display will be switched off automatically. During this time the AutoSync function is not enabled. To exit the power save mode, press any button.

(optional accessory)- Bike settings – You can define settings up to two to three bikes in your training computer. When you start training, you can select the bike with the correct settings for that particular training session.- Cadence – Your cycling cadence stands for your pedaling rate in revolutions per minute (rpm). Cadence is the central factor in improving cycling performance. A higher cadence reduces the force needed for each pedal stroke, and thus improves overall performance. Running cadence measures how many times your either right or left foot hits the ground in one minute. Running cadence is measured as steps per minute. With this feature you can sharpen your cadence and make your ground contact time shorter. This will help you to find a balance between leg power and leg speed.CS Speed Sensor W.I.N.D. (optional accessory)- Current speed display range - 0-400 km/h or 0-248.5 mph- Autostart/stop - By activating Autostart/autostop feature, the cycling computer starts and stops training recording automatically when you start or stop pedaling.- Bike settings – You can define settings up to two to three bikes in your training computer. When you start training, you can select the bike with the correct settings for that particular training session.- Distance – - Distance (km, mi) can be set and measured in several ways. Training distance tells you the distance traveled during a training session. Trip distance tells you the distance from the latest trip reset. Lap distance tells you the distance of one lap. Total distance is the distance accumulated since the last reset. Odometer tells you the cumulative distance which you cannot reset.- Speed – current, average and maximumG3 or G5 GPS Sensor W.I.N.D.

Improvement in running efficiency indicates improved economy of running performance.- Speed/Pace – Speed (km/h or mi/h) is measured with GPS, footpod, stride sensor or cycling speed sensor. Pace (expressed as min/km or min/mile) stands for the rate of speed. Pace is usually used in running. By setting a target pace, you can follow how fast you need to run in order to reach a certain distance in a predefined time.- Map view – When you use a GPS sensor you get a map view of your training route. On the map you can examine your training data in further detail.s3 and s3+ Stride Sensor (optional accessory)- Current speed display range - 0-400 km/h or 0-248.5 mph- Average stride length - Stride length is the average length of one step, that is, the distance between your right and left foot contacting the ground. Runners adjust stride length to gather speed: stride length increases as speed increases. Yet one of the most common mistakes novice runners make is over-striding. The most efficient stride length is the natural one – the one that feels most comfortable.- Cadence – Your cycling cadence stands for your pedaling rate in revolutions per minute (rpm). Cadence is the central factor in improving cycling performance. A higher cadence reduces the force needed for each pedal stroke, and thus improves overall performance. Running cadence measures how many times your either right or left foot hits the ground in one minute. Running cadence is measured as steps per minute.
