7.3 Troubleshooting the Optional Polar® Telemetry Heart Rate Chest Strap
Malfunction Probable Cause Corrective Action
Heart rate reading is
initially detected and
functioning
normally but then is
lost.
Use of personal electronic
devices, such as cell phones
and portable MP3 players,
causes external noise
interference.
Remove the source of noise
or reposition the exercise
equipment.
Equipment is in close proximity
to other sources of noise such
as audio/ video equipment,
fans, two way radios, and high
voltage/high current power
lines.
Heart rate readings are
abnormally elevated
Television sets and/or
antennas generate electromag-
netic interference.
Move the Recumbent Bike a few inches away from the
probable cause, or move the probable cause a few inches
away from the Recumbent Bike, until the heart rate read-
ings are accurate.
Cell phones generate
electromagnetic interference.
Computers generate
electromagnetic interference.
Cars generate electromagnetic
interference.
High voltage power lines
generate electromagnetic
interference.
Motor driven exercise
equipment generates electro-
magnetic interference.
Another heart rate transmitter
within 3 feet (1 meter)
generates electromagnetic
interference.
