Strong electromagnetic signals can cause erratic
readings. Electromagnetic disturbances may

occur near high-voltage power lines, traffic
lights, overhead lines of electric railways,
electric bus lines or trams, televisions, car
motors, bike computers, some motor driven
training equipment, cellular phones, or at
electric security gates. To avoid erratic
readings, move away from possible sources of
disturbance.
If the abnormal reading continues despite
moving away from the source of disturbance,
slow down and check your pulse manually. If
you feel it corresponds to the high reading on
the display, you may be experiencing cardiac
arrhythmia. Most cases of arrhythmia are not
serious, but consult your doctor nevertheless.
A cardiac event may have altered your ECG
waveform. In this case, consult your physician.
If heart rate measurement does not work despite
the actions mentioned previously, the battery of
your transmitter may be empty.
