... IF THERE IS 00000 MILES/ KM OR 0000 h IN THE UPPERMOST ROW OF THE TIME OF DAY DISPLAY?

Press and hold SIGNAL/LIGHT and the uppermost row of the time of day display will change. You may see 00000 MILES / KM which indicates total cycling distance, 0000 h which indicates total riding time or the current day (e.g.05). Press and hold for a few seconds as many times as needed until you can see the current day in the uppermost row.

... THE SPEED READING IS 00 OR THERE IS NO SPEED READING IN THE DISPLAY DURING THE RIDE?

1.If the 00 readings appear only occasionally, they may be caused by high voltage power lines in your surroundings.

2.If the 00 readings come more often, you probably have ridden more than 2500 hours with the speed sensor, and it’s time for battery replacement.

3.If you just have started the measurement,you should wait until the code search is finished and then start riding the bike to succesfully get the speed signal.

4.In any case, check the correct positioning of the Polar Speed Sensor. Also check that the distance between the Polar Speed Sensor and the bike mounted wrist receiver is between 1'4" - 1'8" / 40-50 cm.

5.Check that the spoke magnet is installed correctly and the distance between the spoke magnet and the sensor is not more than 0.2"/5 mm. Adjust the spoke magnet by rotating it around the spoke before putting the metal cover on the magnet.

... ANOTHER CYCLIST IS CAUSING INTERFERENCE?

To avoid crosstalk from another cyclist with a Polar Speed Sensor, keep the distance of at least 2'4" / 70 cm between your Polar Protrainer XT receiver mounted on your Polar Bike Mount and the Polar Speed Sensor of the other cyclist.

... I AM CAUSING INTERFERENCE TO OTHER CYCLISTS? You may cause crosstalk to other cycle computers or heart rate monitors. To avoid this, keep a distance of at least 2'4" / 70 cm between your Polar Speed Sensor and other person’s cycle computers and a distance of at least 3 feet / 1 metre between your Polar Coded Transmitter and other cycle computers.
