Before you return your Polar Heart Rate Monitor to the Polar Service Center, please check the following:

  1. Have you read the user's manual?
  2. Is the transmitter belt being worn correctly? The Polar logo should be right side up and the belt should be flat against your skin.
  3. Are the electrodes on the transmitter moist?
  4. Is the transmitter clean? Regular washing with mild soap and water and thoroughly drying afterwards will ensure that good conductivity continues.
  5. Is the receiver within a 3 feet range of the transmitter?
  6. Are the heart rate readings very high and abnormal? Check that your Polar Heart Rate Monitor is not near sources of electromagnetic signals, such as televisions, computers, mobile phones, cars, TV antennas, high voltage power lines and some exercise equipment that is motor driven.
  7. Check that there are no other transmitters within 3 feet if you have a non-coded transmitter.
  8. Has the battery in the receiver been changed by an unauthorized party, causing damage to the unit?
  9. Have the receiver buttons been pressed under water, causing leakage in the receiver?
  10. Static electricity in clothing can cause electrical interference, so some items of clothing i.e. man-made fibers could be the cause. If the display is frozen on the receiver, carry out global reset, if the model in question has that feature (consult the manual for global reset instructions).
  11. It has been known that the chemicals in some swimming pools and sea water may effect the ECG signal pick up.
  12. The ECG signal strength varies depending on the individual's tissue composition and the percentage of people who have problems in heart rate measuring is remarkably higher in water environment than in normal use.
