QUESTIONS
What should I do if...
...I don’t know where I am in the Options or File cycle?
Press and hold the blue button until Time of Day is displayed.
...I cannot find the previous exercise file?
You may have used the Stand By mode during your exercise,
which means that your exercise was not stored. To record the
exercise you have to turn the stopwatch on by pressing the red
button in the Stand By mode.
...there is no heart rate reading (- -)?
1. Check that the electrodes of the transmitter are moistened and
that you are wearing it as instructed.
2. Check that you have kept the transmitter clean.
3. Check that you are not near other people that have heart rate
monitors, high voltage power lines, televisions, mobile phones or
other sources of electromagnetic disturbance.
4. Have you had a cardiac event which may have altered your
EKG waveform? In this case consult your physician.
...the code search was not successful?
The frame around the heart symbol will disappear. Bring the
receiver up to your chest near the transmitter’s Polar logo. The
receiver starts looking for a heart rate signal again. If you still do
not succeed in code searching, but your heart rate is displayed
and the heart symbol without a frame is flashing, you can start
exercising but your wrist receiver may become disturbed by other
heart rate monitors.
