Polar Cadance Sensor [4/6] Care and maintenance

Your safety is important to us. Check that you can turn

your handlebar normally and cable wires for brakes or

gearing do not catch on the sensor. Check also that the

sensor does not disturb pedaling or the use of brakes

or gearing. While riding your bike, please keep your

eyes on the road to prevent possible accidents and

injury.

Before you start cycling, you should set the wheel size

of your bicycle into the cycling computer and turn

the cadence function on. For further information on

how to use the Polar Cadence Sensor with the cycling

computer, please refer to the user manual of the

cycling computer in question.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

• Do not immerse the cadence sensor in water.

• Keep the cadence sensor clean. Clean it with a mild

soap and water solution and in the end rinse it

with clean water. Dry it carefully with a soft towel.

Never use alcohol or any abrasive material such as

steel wool or cleaning chemicals.

• Avoid hard hits as these may damage the sensor.
