Lock a Zone
When training without preset target zones (FREE exercise), you can lock your heart rate into a sport
zone. For more information see Polar Sport Zones. This way, if you haven’t had time to define preset
target zones prior to exercise, you can set a target zone on the go during a session.
Press and hold LAP (OK) to Lock /Unlock zone.
If, for example, you are cycling with a heart rate of 130 bpm which is 75% of your maximum heart
rate, and matches sport zone 3, you can press and hold LAP to lock your heart rate into this zone. Sport
zone3 Locked 70-79 is displayed. An alarm sounds if you are below or above the sport zone (if the target
zone alarm function is on). Unlock the sport zone by pressing and holding OK again: Sport zone3
Unlocked is displayed.
