    as I lost wt I had to tighten my strap. I dont have polar f6, so not sure if the strap is adjustable. Once I tightened mine it was back to normal. It has to get a good connection to be able read your hb.
    good luck!

    Yup, that is always the culprit when Polar flashes 00 for me. Also, make sure you wet the sensors on the strap, that's also a cause of it. I'm guessing that your strap can't be tightened any more?

    I tightened all way to the end so going to see tomorrow if it does the same thing and if it does I will order the small one

    If that doesn't work, it may be time to replace your battery (if you haven't recently). Average life is a year.

    Obviously, trying washing and tightening the strap first. But the batteries do wear out eventually. If you need service, you might want to check out chponline.com. They are the largest Polar service company in the US I believe.

    Actually, here is their Polar service site directly: http://www.polarservicecenter.com/ (straightforward enough URL)
