You may have come within range of strong electromagnetic
signals which cause erratic readings on the wrist receiver
display. Check your surroundings and move further away

Polar Service Centre. This is especially necessary to ensure
the warranty remains valid and is not affected by incorrect
repair procedures done by an unauthorized agent. Polar
Service will test your wrist receiver for water resistance after
battery replacement and make a full periodic check of the
complete Polar Heart Rate Monitor.
