Connection should be secure and undamaged. Replace adapter or connection at unit if either are damaged. All wires in cable should be intact. If any are visibly crimped or cut, replace cable. Be sure cable is connected securely and oriented properly. Small latch on connector should line up and snap into place. Check for visual sign that console display is cracked or otherwise damaged. Replace Console if damaged. If Console only has partial display and all connections are fine, replace the Console. If the above steps do not resolve the problem, contact Customer Care for further assistance. Be sure cable is connected securely to Console. Be sure hands are centered on HR sensors. Hands must be kept still with relatively equal pressure applied to each side. Sensors may have difficulty with dried out or calloused hands. A conductive electrode cream such as "Signa Crème" or "BuhBump" can help make better conduct. These are available on the web or at medical or some larger fitness stores. If tests reveal no other issues, Handlebars should be replaced. Strap should be "POLAR®" compatible and uncoded. Make sure strap is directly against skin and contact area is wet. Try moving unit away from sources of interference (TV, Microwave, etc). If interference is eliminated and HR does not function, replace strap. If HR still does not function, replace Console. All wires in cable should be intact. If any are cut or crimped, replace cable. Be sure cable is connected securely and oriented properly. Small latch on connector should line up and snap into place. If tests reveal no other issues, Console should be replaced. All wires in cable should be intact. If any are cut or crimped, replace cable. Be sure cable is connected securely and oriented properly. Small latch on connector should line up and snap into place. Magnet should be in place on pulley. Speed sensor should be aligned with magnet and connected to data cable. Realign sensor if necessary. Replace if there is any damage to the sensor or the connecting wire. 35
