Cycling Economy
Tracks the cycling workload as kcal/h and kcal/km. Cycling workload as kcal/h and kcal/km. With this feature you can
foresee your calorie expenditure and secure sufficient intake on a long
ride. This feature is also useful for comparing and analyzing the loads
of various training types. It also measures how economical your
training is.
Memory Files
Stores the training data of the last seven sessions. A feature that automatically stores all cycling data from the last seven trainings.
Wireless Polar CS speed sensor
New advanced sensor measuring the cycling speed. Wireless sensor that
provides current, average, and maximum speeds. Easy attachment and
aerodynamic design.

Estimated Time of Arrival
Enables you to foresee the time of arrival based on your cycling speed.
Set the distance you are going to ride, and your cycling computer
calculates the estimated time of arrival based on your cycling speed.
SpeedPointer
Indicates the relation between current speed and average speed. A
feature that points out the difference between average speed/pace and
actual speed/pace on the display by up/down arrows.
Polar OwnCal®
Counts and displays calorie expenditure. The Polar OwnCal feature shows your energy expenditure during one
exercise session as well as your accumulated kilocalories during
several exercise sessions.
You
can set daily and weekly exercise goals in terms of calorie expenditure
with the OwnCal feature. Because the OwnCal tracks both the energy
expenditure during one exercise session and the accumulated
kilocalories during a longer time e.g. one week, it helps in achieving
both short term and long term goals.
Polar OwnZone®
Determines personal heart rate limits for a training session. The Polar
OwnZone (OZ) feature determines an individual exercise zone.
It guides you through an appropriate warm-up routine and automatically
determines a safe and effective exercise heart rate zone - your OwnZone
- while taking into account your current physical condition.
Polar
Heart Rate Monitors use multiple methods for determining your OwnZone.
The primary method is to measure your heart rate variability during the
warm-up period before exercising. If the measurement is not successful,
your latest saved OwnZone limits are used. If there are no previous
limits in the memory, the Polar Heart Rate Monitor will automatically
calculate OwnZone limits based on your age-predicted maximum heart rate
(220 minus age). You should determine your OwnZone at the beginning of
your workout whenever you change exercise environment and/or exercise
mode or if your mental state changes when feeling stressed, for
instance.
The OwnZone Basic corresponds to 65-85 % of the
maximum heart rate. Exercise at the lower end of this intensity level
can be conducted for extended periods safely and often yields the best
results for weight control, while exercise at the upper end of this
intensity produces the best results for improving cardiovascular
(aerobic) fitness.
The OwnZone Advanced feature consists of two
training areas: OwnZone Low and OwnZone High, providing greater
variations in exercising than the OwnZone Basic area, which can be
rather wide for more focused training.
The OwnZone Light
corresponds to 60-70% of your maximum heart rate. This intensity still
feels fairly easy for most people. It helps in weight control and
improves endurance and cardiovascular fitness.
The OwnZone
Moderate corresponds to 70-80% of your maximum heart rate. This
intensity is especially good for people who are exercising regularly.
Exercising in this zone is particularly effective for improving
cardiovascular fitness.
The OwnZone Hard corresponds to 80-90%
of maximum heart rate. You will find yourself breathing heavily, having
tired muscles and feeling fatigued. This intensity is recommended
occasionally for fit people.
The OwnZone Weight corresponds to
about 60-75% of your maximum heart rate. The OwnZone Weight is ideal
for weight loss exercise for less fit individuals and for those
recovering from sickness or intensive training.
Polar OwnCode® (5kHz)
Prevents cross-talk from other heart rate monitors. As more and more people use heart rate monitors today, preventing cross
talk from other devices in group situations at the gym or when jogging
with a friend becomes essential. The unique coded technology blocks
unwanted signals from other heart rate monitors, ensuring
disturbance-free transmission of your heart rate data.
