QuestionIs there a polar watch available that monitors your heart rate without having to wear the chest strap? Is there one where the watch has the HR sensor?
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer You're going to get a much much much more accurate reading if you choose to go with a monitor with a chest strap. I own a monitor that has the optical HR sensor and I absolutely despise it.

QuestionIs the white one easy to clean?Does it stain?
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer I've had mine for 2 weeks now. The silicon band does not stain. I've changed the oil and transmission fluid in my car, got grease all over it, and it all just wiped right off.

QuestionWhat is the range on the HRM chest strap transmitter?How far does the signal from the HRM chest strap extend when it's being used? If my wife and I were to each get one of these watches and chest straps, will the signals from the chest straps interfere with each other's watch if we're side by side in a spin class or are riding our tandem bicycle? Also, my wife has an older Polar HRM watch that is maybe 7 or more years old. Would that older chest strap work with the M400, or would we need to buy a new, M400-specific chest strap? Thanks for whatever information you can provide.
Asked 9 years ago by Bill in SoCal.
- Answer They claim the Bluetooth extends to roughly 30 feet. You can set the Bluetooth to not be visible to others, so your watches and heart rates do not interfere with each other.

QuestionSwimmingWhat does the polar watch tell you while swimming? Can it tell you heart rate and calories burned? I would love to know the all the features that there are in regards to swimming. Thank you!
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer The M400 does not have any swimming specific metrics. Our V800 however, which is designed for the multisport athlete, does. In addition to tracking one's heart rate and estimating calorie burn, it also recognizes the swimming stroke, the number of laps (if swimming in a pool) as well as your pace and distance. - Mike @ Polar USA

QuestionDoes it work for indoor rowing?
Asked 10 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Yes, the M400 can be used for any activity where one wants to track their heart rate during exercise. You can create what Polar calls a 'sport profile' marked as 'rowing' and then simply disable the GPS function when indoors. It will track all your heart rate and exercise data which then can be analyzed further at our website www.flow.polar.com. Mike @ Polar USA

QuestionDoes this track sleep? Is the display constant or do you have to tap/touch/turn your wrist to look at it?
Asked 8 years ago by AW.
- Answer Yes, it tracks your sleep. And you can customize the watch face to see where you are on your daily goal or hide it. You can always see the watch face. Not like a FitBit where you have to tap it to wake it.

QuestionWhat are all the stats you get with this for running besides heart rate, pace, distance and cadence?
Asked 9 years ago by kbella999.
- Answer Altitude is also available. In addition there are multiple stats that are available based off of the stats you mentioned - for example you can get average pace, current pace, max heart rate, calories burned based on heart rate, etc. Too many to list off easily, and while the running profile defaults to a few of these it can be customized to swap in any of these stats to be viewed while running. Lastly there are a couple of nifty things available like distance to get back to start, and ability to estimate how long it would take you to reach a certain distance like marathon.

QuestionCan the screen brightness be adjusted?The sample unit I viewed was dim and difficult to see. The clerk could not advise on a method to adjust the setting. Thank you.
Asked 9 years ago by spike.
- Answer It's possible that the unit on display was low on battery, hence reason why it was dim. As for adjusting the display, one can change format with which it is displayed. For example one can have white numbers on a black background or black numbers on a white background. This can be set within the settings of the watch. To do so go to Settings - General Settings - Training View Color. If you have other questions, please don't hesitate to contact Polar directly at 800-227-1314 and a representative will help you further - Mike @ PolarUSA
