My Polar FT7 heart monitor arrived the other day and I plan on using it tonight. The only issue is I can't find my instruction manual. Can anyone tell me how to use this thing? Thanks!

    The bottom left button to stop. There are two on the left.

    Kristy -- Did you input your height/weight/age, etc.? If not, look on the Polar website. You should be able to find an electronic version of the manual. I can't remember off the top of my head how to get to the settings and I don't have my watch with me right now.

    The website has a manual on it.

    If you press the buttons on the side it will give you the options for 'user data' I think, then you add your weight, height, sex etc. You need to run the chest strap under water on the sqaures on the back so they are wet but not the whole strap soaking, then attach the wearlink to it.

    This is the manual too.

    Quick tip: If you're working out and hold the watch close to the sensor on the strap, the display changes to tell the time.

    I love my Polar FT7, it's my best friend. Check the manual Smudger_24 posted above.

    Make sure you wet the sensors on the strap.
