Improve fitness
For those who want basic heart rate-based features to keep their fitness training simple. Just grab it with you, put on the comfortable textile transmitter, and Polar FT4 tells if you’re improving your fitness.
Shows when you’re improving fitness based on your heart rate
Displays calories burned
Comes with comfortable textile transmitter and coded heart rate transmission to avoid cross-talk
Features:
Exercise: Average heart rate of total exercise
A figure expressed in beats per minute (bpm) representing the average heart rate measured over a specific period of time (e.g. a training session).
Exercise: Exercise Date
HR based target zone alarms
Audible and visual
Exercise: Maximum heart rate of total exercise
Exercise: Polar OwnCal®
Counts and displays calorie expenditure. The Polar OwnCal feature shows your energy expenditure during one training session as well as your accumulated kilocalories during several training sessions. You can set daily and weekly training goals in terms of calorie expenditure with the OwnCal feature. Because the OwnCal tracks both the energy expenditure during one training session and the accumulated kilocalories during a longer time e.g. one week, it helps in achieving both short term and long term goals.
Exercise: 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.
Exercise: Wireless ECG accurate heart rate
Exercise: Automatic age-based target zone
%/bpm
Exercise: Automatic/Manual target zone
% / bpm / HRR%
Basic: Backlight
Basic: Graphical target zone indicator
Basic: Heart rate (displayed as bpm)
A measurement of the work your heart does, expressed as the number of beats per minute (bpm).
Basic: Heart rate (displayed as % of maximum heart rate)
A measurement of the work your heart does, expressed as % of your maximum heart rate.
Basic: HeartTouch™, button-free operation of wrist unit
This function enables button free operation of certain main functions, e.g. when gloves make pressing buttons difficult. Acitivate the HeartTouch funtion by bringing your wrist unit close to the Polar logo on your tranmitter. The HeartTouch function operates only when wearing the transmitter.

Basic: Water resistant
50m
Polar products may be worn when swimming. They are not, however, diving instruments. To maintain water resistance, do not press the buttons of the product under water. When measuring heart rate in water, you may experience interference for the following reasons:
Pool water with high chlorine content, and seawater are very conductive. The electrodes of the transmitter may short-circuit, preventing ECG signals from being detected by the transmitter.
Jumping into water or strenuous muscle movement during competitive swimming may shift the transmitter to a location on the body where ECG signals cannot be picked up.
The ECG signal strength is individual and may vary depending on the individual’s tissue composition. Problems occur more frequently when measuring heart rate in water.
In the watch industry water resistance is generally indicated as meters of water pressure, which means static pressure of water at the level in question. Polar uses this same indication system. Water resistance of Polar products is tested according to International Standard ISO 2281. Every Polar device that has water resistance indication is tested before the delivery to stand water pressure.
Polar products are divided into three different categories according to their water resistance. Check the back of your Polar product for the water resistance category, and compare it to the chart below. Please note that these definitions do not necessarily apply to products of other manufacturers.
When performing any underwater activity, the dynamic pressure generated by moving in water is greater than the static pressure. This means that moving the product under water subjects it to a greater pressure than if the product were stationary.
When it says "water resistant" it means alright to be exposed to wash splashed, sweat, raindrops.
When it is a Polar Wearlink, and says "water resistant up to 30m" it means alright to be exposed to wash splashed, sweat, raindrops, bathing, swimming.
When it says " water resistant up to 50m" it means alright to be exposed to wash splashed, sweat, raindrops, bathing, swimming.
When it says "water resistant up to 100m" it means alright to be exposed to wash splashed, sweat, raindrops, bathing, swimming and skin diving with snorkel (no air tanks).
Data Transfer: Compatible with polarpersonaltrainer.com with Polar FlowLink
Recording: Average heart rate
A figure expressed in beats per minute (bpm) representing the average heart rate measured over a specific period of time (e.g. a training session).
Recording: Calorie expenditure
The feature in Polar Heart Rate Monitors calculating the number of kilocalories expended during training is called OwnCal. This function allows you to follow the kilocalories expended during one training session (exercise on display) and cumulative kilocalories expended during several training sessions (total on display). The fat-burning percentage (fat% on display) estimates kilocalories expended from fat during a workout and is expressed as a percentage of the total kilocalories burned.
Recording: Exercise Time (total)
The time you have trained with the stopwatch running. The Total Exercise Time feature keeps track of your cumulative training time since last resetting the counter. This feature gives you yet another way to set daily or weekly training goals for yourself.
Recording: Exercise file info page with date and time
Recording: Maximum heart rate
The highest number of heart beats per minute (bpm) during maximum physical exertion. The HRmax -p score predicts your individual maximum heart rate. The most accurate way of determining your individual HRmax is to perform a maximal exercise stress test in a laboratory. For a rough estimate of your maximum heart rate subtract your age from 220. HRmax is a useful tool for determining the intensity of training.
Recording: Number of exercise files (with summaries)
Recording: Target zone limitis
Recording: Time in target zone
The Time in Target Zone feature calculates the amount of total training time spent in your personal target zone. You can use this feature together with the Total Exercise Time to determine the effectiveness of your training program.
Watch: Alarm with snooze
Watch: Date and weekday indicator
Watch: Dual time zone
A feature that allows you to choose between two time zones.
Watch: Low battery indicator
Watch: StopWatch
Watch: Time of day (12/24h) with alarm
Watch: User replaceable battery
Transmitter: Polar WearLink® 31 coded transmitter (changeable battery)
