Make sure unit is plugged into a functioning wall outlet.
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.

are available on the web or at medical or some larger fitness stores.

Strap should be "POLAR
" compatible and uncoded. Make sure strap is directly

against skin and contact area is wet.
