Heart Rate Monitor
Troubleshooting
If you have trouble pairing with
the heart rate monitor, or if your
heart rate readings are erratic, try
the following suggestions.
Position the Forerunner within
3 meters of the sensor while
pairing.
Stay far away from any other
sensors while pairing.
Move away from sources of
interference (see the previous
page).
Restart scan if your
Forerunner appears to be
paired with another sensor
(see page 46).
Make sure scanning for the
heart rate monitor is enabled
(see page 46).
Replace the battery.
Clean the sensors. Dirt and
sweat build-up on the sensors
can weaken signals.
Reapply moisture. Use
electrode gel, water, or saliva.
Make sure the heart rate
monitor is snug against your
body. If you have trouble with
erratic readings, position the
transmitter on your back.
Wear a cotton shirt, or wet
your shirt. Synthetic fabrics
that rub or ap against the
heart rate monitor can create
static electricity that interferes
with heart rate signals.
