... IF THERE IS 00000 MILES/ KM OR 0000 h IN THE
UPPERMOST ROW OF THE TIME OF DAY DISPLAY?
Press and hold SIGNAL/LIGHT and the uppermost row of the time of day
display will change. You may see 00000 MILES / KM which indicates total
cycling distance, 0000 h which indicates total riding time or the current day
(e.g.05). Press and hold for a few seconds as many times as needed until
you can see the current day in the uppermost row.
... THE SPEED READING IS 00 OR THERE IS NO SPEED
READING IN THE DISPLAY DURING THE RIDE?
1. If the 00 readings appear only occasionally, they may be caused by high
voltage power lines in your surroundings.
2. If the 00 readings come more often, you probably have ridden more than
2500 hours with the speed sensor, and it’s time for battery replacement.
3. If you just have started the measurement,you should wait until the code
search is finished and then start riding the bike to succesfully get the
speed signal.
4. In any case, check the correct positioning of the Polar Speed Sensor.
Also check that the distance between the Polar Speed Sensor and the
bike mounted wrist receiver is between 1'4" - 1'8" / 40-50 cm.
5. Check that the spoke magnet is installed correctly and the distance
between the spoke magnet and the sensor is not more than 0.2"/5 mm.
Adjust the spoke magnet by rotating it around the spoke before putting
the metal cover on the magnet.
... ANOTHER CYCLIST IS CAUSING INTERFERENCE?
To avoid crosstalk from another cyclist with a Polar Speed Sensor, keep the
distance of at least 2'4" / 70 cm between your Polar Protrainer XT receiver
mounted on your Polar Bike Mount and the Polar Speed Sensor of the other
cyclist.
... I AM CAUSING INTERFERENCE TO OTHER CYCLISTS?
You may cause crosstalk to other cycle computers or heart rate monitors.
To avoid this, keep a distance of at least 2'4" / 70 cm between your Polar
Speed Sensor and other person’s cycle computers and a distance of at
least 3 feet / 1 metre between your Polar Coded Transmitter and other
cycle computers.
