...the cycling computer does not measure the calories?
In order to measure the calories you burn, you need to wear the
transmitter during recording.
...the
heart
rate, speed or distance reading becomes erratic or
extremely high?
Strong electromagnetic signals can cause erratic readings. So move
away from possible sources of disturbance such as high-voltage
power lines, traffi c lights, electric railways or trams, car motors,
bike computers, some motor-driven exercise equipment (like fi tness
testers) or cellular phones.
If the erratic heart rate reading continues after you have moved
away from the source of disturbance, slow down your speed 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.
To avoid crosstalk from another cyclist with a speed sensor, keep a
distance of at least one meter/ 3'4'' between your cycling computer
and the speed sensor of the other cyclist.

...there is no heart rate reading (00)?
• Check that the electrodes of the transmitter are moistened and
that you are wearing it as instructed.
• Make sure the transmitter is clean.
• Check that you are not near high voltage power lines,
televisions, cellular phones, or other sources of electromagnetic
interference. Also make sure that you are not near (1 m/3 ft)
other heart rate monitor users, when starting your exercise
recording.
• Cardiac arrhythmia may cause irregular readings or a cardiac
event may have altered your ECG waveform. In these cases,
consult your physician.
...there is no speed reading while cycling?
• Check the correct position and distance of the sensor with the
magnet and the cycling computer.
• Check that you have set the correct cycling settings in your
cycling computer. For further information, see page 39.
• If the 00 reading appears irregularly, this may be due to
temporary electromagnetic interference in your current
surroundings.
• If the 00 reading is constant, you may have exceeded
4500 riding hours and the battery is empty.
