• Clean the electrodes. Dirt and
sweat residue can interfere with
heart rate signals.
• Wear a cotton shirt or wet your
shirt if suitable for your activity.
Synthetic fabrics that rub or flap
against the heart rate monitor
can create static electricity that
interferes with heart rate signals.
• Move away from sources of
strong electromagnetic fields and
some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors,
which can interfere with your
heart rate monitor. Sources of
interference may include very
high voltage power lines, electric
motors, microwave ovens,
2.4 GHz cordless phones, and
wireless LAN access points.
Heart Rate Monitor Battery
The heart rate monitor contains a
user-replaceable CR2032 battery.
