4. Starting the G1 GPS Sensor
The G1 sensor uses GPS (Global Positioning System) technology to measure speed
and distance in real time. In ideal conditions of use, its precision can reach one meter.
The battery of the G1 has an average of 10h of use. The G1 is waterproof and its solid
design makes it resistant to most shocks and scratches.
Use a coin to unscrew and open the metal battery cover. Place the LR6 battery as indi-
cated and screw the metal cover back into place.
The buckle located in the back of the G1
allows you either to wear the G1 on your
arm using the strap provided or to fix it
on a belt or loop.
To ensure a good detection of the GPS
signals, the G1 should not be covered or
worn under clothes.
Open the G1 buckle and pass the strap
through the loop (Velcro on the inside).
Pull in enough strap so your arm can fit
through it.
Then adjust the size of the strap so the G1
can’t move once placed on your arm.
To ensure good detection of the GPS sig-
nals, the G1 shouldn’t be covered and
should be placed with the Polar logo in an
upright position. We also recommend wear-
ing it on the same arm as the RS300X re-
ceiver.
Your G1 is now ready for use!
Press the button 2 seconds to start (or stop)
the G1. A green light indicating battery status
(
B
) flashes for a few seconds. Following this,
a red light indicating detection status (
A
) ap-
pears and shows that the G1 is searching for
GPS signals.
Don’t move. Once the GPS signals have
been found (after 1 minute in average), this
light (
A
) turns green.
Note:
The light indicating battery status (B)
turns red when the battery is flat .
