Why is the heart rate monitor not detecting my heart rate?

If the heart rate monitor on your Polar S150 sport watch is not detecting your heart rate, there are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue: 1. Make sure the heart rate monitor is properly attached to the elastic strap. Adjust the strap length to fit snugly and comfortably around your chest, just below the chest muscles, and buckle it securely. 2. Lift the transmitter off your chest and moisten the two grooved electrode areas on the back. Check that the wet electrode areas are firmly against your skin and that the Polar logo is in a central, upright position. 3. Keep the wrist receiver within 3 feet/1 meter of your transmitter. If the receiver is too far away, it may not be able to detect the heart rate signal. 4. If the heart rate reading is irregular or abnormal, or if there is no heart rate reading at all, check that the electrode areas on the back of the transmitter are moistened. Also, ensure that there is no one else using a heart rate monitor within 3 feet/1 meter, and that you are not near high voltage power lines, televisions, mobile phones, or other sources of electromagnetic interference. If these steps do not resolve the issue, consult your physician for further guidance.

How do I properly attach the bike mount to the Polar S150 sport watch?

To properly attach the bike mount to the Polar S150 sport watch, follow these steps: 1. Check that the Bike Mount fits snugly on the handlebar. If needed, attach the rubber pad on the inner surface of the Bike Mount. 2. Use cable ties to secure the Bike Mount tightly on the right side of the handlebar. 3. Attach the adapter to the Bike Mount, ensuring that the wire is pointing to the left. Press the adapter firmly in place. 4. Attach the receiver securely by fastening the wrist strap. 5. Pass the adapter wire from the Bike Mount to a suitable area, making sure it is not hanging loosely. If necessary, wind the wire around the front fork and brake or gear cables. 6. Place the rubber pad on the fork and position the speed sensor on top of it. 7. Adjust the angle of the sensor as shown in the illustrations. 8. Pass the cable ties through the sensor and loosely adjust them. 9. Install the spoke magnet, ensuring it faces the sensor. Rotate the magnet around the spoke before putting the metal cover on. 10. Check that the sensor does not touch the spokes. The distance between the sensor and the magnet should be 0.12" - 0.2" (3 - 5 mm). 11. Tighten the cable ties securely and cut off any excess ends. 12. Secure the adapter wire with cable ties. 13. Ensure that you can turn the handlebar normally without any interference from the sensor or cables. Remember to follow these steps carefully to properly attach the bike mount to your Polar S150 sport watch.

Why is the speed sensor not working properly?

The speed sensor of the Polar S150 sport watch may not be working properly due to several reasons. Here are the steps to troubleshoot the issue: 1. Check the installation of the speed sensor adapter: Ensure that the adapter is securely attached to the bike mount and that the wire is pointing to the left. Press the adapter firmly to ensure it stays in place. 2. Verify the placement of the speed sensor: Examine the front side of the right front fork to find a suitable location for the speed sensor. Clean and dry the area before attaching the sensor. 3. Confirm the connection between the speed sensor and the watch: Make sure that the receiver is securely attached to your wrist using the wrist strap. This ensures a proper connection between the speed sensor and the watch. 4. Check the battery level: Ensure that the battery in the speed sensor is not depleted. If necessary, replace the battery with a new one. 5. Verify the wheel size setting: Ensure that the wheel size setting in the watch matches the actual wheel size of your bike.
