Ok I just got my Polar FT4 and can't seem to find the answers that I am looking for,so I am hoping that someone that has one can help me.

Ok my questions are: Do you have to wear the transmitter to see your heart rate?
and
Can you wear the Transmitter in a pool to track your heart rate when working out in the pool?

I hope someone can help me... :flowerforyou:

    YES you would have to wear the chest strap to see your HR. Yes you can wear it in the pool but do NOT press any buttons while its wet.

    Wear the Transmitter
    Before starting training recording, you need to wear
    the transmitter.
    1. Wet the electrode areas of the strap well under
    running water.
    2. Attach the connector to the strap. Adjust the
    strap length to fit it tightly but comfortably.
    3. Tie the strap around your chest, just below the
    chest muscles, and attach the hook to the
    other end of the strap.
    4. Check that the wet electrode areas are firmly
    against your skin and that the Polar logo of the
    connector is in a central and upright position.
    Detach the connector from the strap when you are
    not using it to maximize the transmitter lifetime. See
    detailed washing instructions in Customer Service
    Information.
