I am having problems with the settings on my Polar M400 sport watch. I am sending a photo of how the screen looks, which does not change when pressing the buttons. Sometimes, three moving dots appear. Thank you in advance and I will be attentive to your comments.

My Polar M430 does not respond when I try to adjust the time and other functions. Three dots appear. Does this mean that the battery has reached the end of its life? Can the battery be replaced? Do I have to throw away the watch?

A question mark has appeared on my watch, in the upper left corner. I don't know how to get it off or why it's there. Do you know what it could be? Best regards, Anette Nesbø.

Hello, I can't seem to charge my Polar M400 anymore. It just won't work. I have rinsed it off occasionally, which should prevent this problem. Right? Neither the power plug/USB nor laptop works. What could be the cause of this? Looking forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Jeroen

Beste, Ik heb ooit mijn M400 volledig ingesteld. Dus mijn naam staat op de display. Hoe krijg ik mijn naam er terug af ? Ben al naar instellingen gegaan maar vind nergens een aanwijzing om mijn naam eraf te krijgen . Mvg Greet Verlinden
