16CHARGING THE M600The M600 has an internal, rechargeable battery. Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles. Youcan charge and discharge the battery over 300 times before a notable decrease in its capacity. The number of chargecycles also varies according to use and operating conditions.You can charge your M600 via a computer’s USB port with the charging cable provided to you in the sales package.You can also charge your M600‘s battery using a wall outlet (a USB power adapter is not included in the product set).If you use a USB power adapter, make sure that the adapter is marked with "output 5Vdc" and that it provides a min-imum of 500mA. Only use an adequately safety approved USB power adapter (marked with "LPS", "Limited PowerSupply" or "UL listed").The magnetic end of the cable snaps into place to the M600's charging port when it’s properly connected to yoursmart watch. The M600 also vibrates briefly when the charging begins. If the smartwatch is turned on when you plugit into charge, you'll see a small lightning bolt icon on the home screen of your M600. You can see the battery char-ging level of your watch by swiping down halfway from the top of the home screen. If the smartwatch is turned offwhen you plug it into charge, a battery icon animation begins to fill up on the display. When the battery icon is full, theM600 is fully charged. It may take up to two hours to fully charge an empty M600 battery.1. Wrist-based heart rate monitor sensors2. Charging portWhen you've finished charging the battery of your M600, remove the charging cable from the USB port of yourcomputer or from the wall adapter. If the charging cable is left connected to a power source, the magnetic end of thecable attracts iron-containing objects and can short-circuit, possibly causing circuit damage, overheating, fire orexplosion.Don't leave the battery fully discharged for a long period of time or keep it fully charged all the time because itmay affect the battery life time.Also, do not charge the battery in temperatures under 0°C or over +40°C or when thecharging port is wet or sweaty. If the charging port of your M600 has gotten wet, let it dry before plugging in the char-ging cable.
17BATTERY OPERATING TIMEThe battery operating time is•2 days / 8 hours of training on M600 paired with an Android phone.•1 day / 8 hours of training on M600 paired with an iPhone.The operating time depends on many factors, such as the temperature of the environment in which you use yourM600, the features you use, if the screen is in the Always-on mode, and battery aging. The operating time is sig-nificantly reduced in temperatures well below freezing. Wearing the M600 under your overcoat helps to keep itwarmer and to increase the operating time.LOW BATTERY NOTIFICATIONWhen the charge in your M600's battery drops down to 15% or less, you'll see a card stating the charge level and thestatus of battery saver mode.

Tomeasure wrist-based heart rate accurately, you need to secure the wristband firmly around your wrist, just behind thewrist bone, with the display facing up. The sensor must be touching your skin, but the wristband should not be too tightto prevent blood flow.
46When you're not working out, you should wear the wristband a little looser, just as you would wear a normal watch.But you should tighten it up for your training sessions to make sure you get accurate heart rate readings from thewrist. If you have tattoos on the skin of your wrist, avoid placing the sensor right on it as it may prevent accurate read-ings.It's a good idea to warm up the skin under the sensor if your hands and skin get cold easily. Get the blood goingbefore starting your session!In sports where it's more challenging to keep the sensor stationary on your wrist or where you have pressure or move-ment in muscles or tendons near the sensor, we recommend using a Polar heart rate sensor with a chest strap to getbetter measurement of your heart rate. See Pairing the Polar app with a heart rate sensor for more information.Although there are many subjective clues as to how your body is doing during exercise (perceived exertion, breathingrate, physical sensations), none of them are as reliable as measuring heart rate. It is objective and affected by bothinternal and external factors—meaning you will have a dependable measure of your physical state.STARTING A TRAINING SESSIONSee Navigating the Polar app to find out the alternative ways to get around in the app.TO START A TRAINING SESSION1.

47The heart icon begins to display your heart rate when it’s detected.If a sport profile supports GPS-tracking, the GPS icon is displayed. To catch the GPS satellite signals, go out-doors and away from tall buildings and trees. For best GPS performance, wear the M600 on your wrist with thedisplay facing up. Keep it in a horizontal position in front of you and away from your chest. Keep your arm sta-tionary and raised above the level of your chest during the search. Stand still and hold the position until theM600 has found the satellite signals.Due to the location of the GPS antenna on the M600, it is not recommended to wear it with the display on theunderside of your wrist.

57POLAR FEATURES24/7 ACTIVITY TRACKINGThe Polar app on your M600 tracks your activity with a 3D accelerometer that records your wrist movements. It ana-lyzes the frequency, intensity and regularity of your movements together with your physical information, allowing youto see how active you really are in your everyday life, on top of your regular training. We recommend that you wearyour M600 on your non-dominant hand for more accurate activity tracking.The activity tracking feature is always on. If you use a Polar watch face on your M600, you'll see your activity progresson the home screen.ACTIVITY GOALThe Polar app guides you in reaching your personal activity goal each day. The activity goal is based on your personaldata and activity level setting, which you can find in the Daily Activity Goal settings in the Polar Flow web service. Signin to the web service, click your name/profile photo in the upper right corner and go to the Daily Activity goal tab in Set-tings.The Daily Activity goal setting lets you choose the one that best describes your typical day and activity from threeactivity levels. Below the selection area, you can see how active you need to be to reach your daily activity goal on thechosen level. For example, if you're an office worker and spend most of your day sitting, you would be expected toreach about four hours of low intensity activity during an ordinary day. For people who stand and walk a lot during theirworking hours, the expectations are higher.ACTIVITY DATAThe Polar app records your progress towards your daily goal. You can check your activity progress from the activitybar in My day or from the Polar watch faces.In My day you can see how active your day has been so far and any training sessions you've done or planned for theday.
58•Steps: Steps you've taken so far. The amount and type of body movements are registered and turned into anestimation of steps.•Distance: Distance you've covered so far. The distance calculation is based on your height and the steps you'vetaken.•Calories: Shows how many calories you've burned through training, activity and BMR (Basal metabolic rate: theminimum metabolic activity required to maintain life).You can quickly open the activity display from the home screen if you have Polar Jumbo as your watch face. Justtap the light blue activity icon.To see what you should still do to reach your activity goal for the day, tap the activity data view or push your arm downwhen the activity data view is open on the screen.When you reach your daily activity goal, you'll get a notification card. If you use a Polar watch face on your M600,you'll get a vibrating animation.INACTIVITY ALERTIt's widely known that physical activity is a major factor in maintaining health. In addition to being physically active, it'simportant to avoid prolonged sitting. Sitting for long periods of time is bad for your health even on those days whenyou train and gain enough daily activity. The Polar app spots if you’re being inactive for too long during your day andhelps you to break up your sitting to avoid the negative effects it has on your health.Whichever activity level you've set for your daily activity goal, if you’ve been still for 55 minutes, you'll get an inactivityalert card: It's time to move is shown along with a small vibration. Stand up and find your own way to be active. Take ashort walk, stretch, or do some other light activity. The message goes away when you start moving or press any but-ton.If you don't get active in five minutes, you'll get an inactivity stamp. You can see the inactivity stamp in My Day in thePolar app below your daily activity data. You can also see how many inactivity stamps you've received each day in thePolar Flow app and web service. This way you can check back on your daily routine and make changes towards amore active life.The inactivity alerts or stamps won't affect your progress towards reaching your daily activity goal.SLEEP INFORMATION IN THE POLAR FLOW APP AND WEB SERVICEThe Polar app tracks your sleep time and quality (restful / restless) if you wear the M600 at night. You don't have toturn the sleep mode on. The app automatically detects that you're sleeping from your wrist movements. Sleep time,and its quality (restful / restless) is shown in the Polar Flow app and web service .
59Your sleep time is the longest continuous rest time that takes place within 24 hours starting from 18:00/6pm to nextday’s 18:00/6pm. Breaks shorter than one hour in your sleep don't stop sleep tracking, but they are not taken intoaccount in the sleep time. Breaks longer than 1 hour stop sleep time tracking.The periods when you sleep peacefully and don’t move a lot are calculated as restful sleep. The periods when youmove and change your position are calculated as restless sleep. Instead of simply summing up all the immobile peri-ods, the calculation gives more weight to long than short immobile periods. The percentage of restful sleep com-pares the time you slept restfully with the total sleeping time. Restful sleep is highly individual and should beinterpreted together with sleep time.Knowing the amount of restful and restless sleep gives you insight into how you sleep at night and if it’s affected byany changes in your daily life. This may help you in finding ways to improve your sleep and feel well rested during theday.ACTIVITY DATA IN THE POLAR FLOW APP AND WEB SERVICEWith the Polar Flow mobile app, you can follow and analyze your activity data on the go and have your data syncedfrom the Polar app to the Polar Flow web service. The web service gives you the most detailed insight into your activ-ity information.
60HEART RATE ZONESPolar heart rate zones introduce a new level of effectiveness in heart rate-based training. Training is divided into fiveheart rate zones based on percentages of maximum heart rate. With heart rate zones, you can easily select and mon-itor training intensities.Target zone Intensity %of HRmax*Example:Heart ratezones**Example dur-ationsTraining effectMAXIMUM90–100% 171–190 bpm less than 5minutesBenefits: Maximal or near maximal effort forbreathing and muscles.Feels like: Very exhausting for breathing andmuscles.Recommended for: Very experienced and fitathletes. Short intervals only, usually in finalpreparation for short events.HARD80–90% 152–172 bpm 2–10 minutesBenefits: Increased ability to sustain high speedendurance.Feels like: Causes muscular fatigue andheavy breathing.Recommended for: Experienced athletes foryear-round training, and for various durations.Becomes more important during pre com-petition season.MODERATE70–80% 133–152 bpm 10–40minutesBenefits: Enhances general training pace, makesmoderate intensity efforts easier and improves effi-ciency.Feels like: Steady, controlled, fast breathing.Recommended for: Athletes training forevents, or looking for performance gains.LIGHT60–70% 114-133 bpm 40–80minutesBenefits: Improves general base fitness, improvesrecovery and boosts metabolism.Feels like: Comfortable and easy, low muscleand cardiovascular load.Recommended for: Everybody for long train-ing sessions during base training periods andfor recovery exercises during competition sea-son.VERY LIGHT 50–60% 104–114 bpm 20–40 Benefits: Helps to warm up and cool down and
61Target zone Intensity %of HRmax*Example:Heart ratezones**Example dur-ationsTraining effectminutesassists recovery.Feels like: Very easy, little strain.Recommended for: For recovery and cool-down, throughout training season.* HRmax = Maximum heart rate (220-age).** Heart rate zones (in beats per minute) for a 30-years-old person, whose maximum heart rate is 190 bpm (220–30).Training in heart rate zone 1 is done at a very low intensity. The main training principle is that performance improveswhen recovering after, and not only during training. Accelerate the recovery process with very light intensity training.Training in heart rate zone 2 is for endurance training, an essential part of any training program. Training sessions inthis zone are easy and aerobic. Long-duration training in this light zone results in effective energy expenditure. Pro-gress will require persistence.Aerobic power is enhanced in heart rate zone 3. The training intensity is higher than in sport zones 1 and 2, but stillmainly aerobic. Training in sport zone 3 may, for example, consist of intervals followed by recovery. Training in thiszone is especially effective for improving the efficiency of blood circulation in the heart and skeletal muscles.If your goal is to compete at top potential, you will have to train in heart rate zones 4 and 5. In these zones, you exer-cise anaerobically in intervals of up to 10 minutes. The shorter the interval, the higher the intensity. Sufficient recov-ery between intervals is very important. The training pattern in zones 4 and 5 is designed to produce peakperformance.The Polar target heart rate zones can be personalized by using a laboratory measured HRmax value, or by taking afield test to measure the value yourself. When training in a target heart rate zone, try to make use of the entire zone.The mid-zone is a good target, but keeping your heart rate at that exact level all the time is not necessary. Heart rategradually adjusts to training intensity. For instance, when crossing from heart rate target zone 1 to 3, the circulatorysystem and heart rate will adjust in 3-5 minutes.Heart rate responds to training intensity depending on factors such as fitness and recovery levels, as well as envir-onmental factors. It is important to look out for subjective feelings of fatigue, and to adjust your training programaccordingly.SPORT PROFILESSport profiles are the sport choices you have in the Polar app on your M600.There are six default sport profiles in the Polar app in your M600:•Group exercise•Running•Strength training
