exactly the same code as you. In this case keep distance
to your training partner or proceed as follows:
1. Stop the stopwatch and heart rate measurement.
2. Take the transmitter off your chest for 10 seconds.
3. Put the transmitter back and start the heart rate
measurement again.
... HEART RATE READING BECOMES ERRATIC OR
EXTREMELY HIGH?
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

... THE BATTERY OF THE WRIST RECEIVER MUST
BE REPLACED?
We recommend having all service done by an authorized
Polar Service. 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
