...other person with heart rate monitor is causing interference?
Your training partner may have exactly the same code as you. In this case
proceed as follows: Keep a distance from your training partner and
continue your training session normally.
Or
1. Take the transmitter off your chest for 30 seconds. Keep a distance from
your training partner.
2. Put the transmitter back and bring the receiver up to your chest near
the transmitter’s Polar logo. The receiver starts looking for a heart rate
signal again. Continue your training session normally.
...heart rate reading becomes erratic or extremely high?
You may have come within range of strong electromagnetic signals which
cause erratic readings. Check your surroundings and move further away
from the source of disturbance.
...the display is blank or fading?
If the display is blank, activate the wrist receiver by pressing the OK button
twice, after which the Time of day display appears. The first sign of a
discharged battery is the battery symbol on the display. Also the digits fade
when the backlight is used. Have the batteries checked.

will return to the default settings. User information and measuring units
settings will be saved.

flashing, you can start exercising but your wrist receiver may become
disturbed by other heart rate monitors.
