Polar F6 question

During my morning run, the HRM kept jumping around in my heart rate - 180, 0, 155, 78, 0, etc. It's only 6 months old and should not be malfunctioning like this. Has anyone else had this problem? Nothing like this has ever happened before.

Help!

    I have the same HRM....I noticed the same thing, but I also noticed WHEN it's happening. Usually at times the chest strap changes position (like when I'm doing downward dog during Yoga). It was also happening quite often when I'd run on my treadmill. What I did was tighten the chest strap and it hasn't happened at all since.

    I hadn't even thought of just tightening the chest strap - I haven't done that in about 20 pounds, so I'll see if that helps.

    Thanks!
