I have an FT-7 and like everyone else who posts, I love it, but.. Thanks to the posts already here I think I've got the chest strap behaving most of the time by laundering it regularly and keeping it taut.

Yesterday the watch component started displaying the number 2 in a circle at the lower right corner of the display along with the time, when it's not in "workout" mode. I've tried searching here and elsewhere (and reading the manual) and can't find out what this means. I've had it a little over 2 months- weak battery is a possibility but who knows?

Any idea what this means? Thanks.

    I've got exactely the same error - I've also not been able to find an answer. Did you get any replies or ideas as to what the '2' means?

    This is an indicator for the 2nd time zone function. Hit the lower right button to toggle back and forth.

    See page 12 of the manual:

    It is not an error code. It is about your time setting. If you go into settings and put it back in time zone 1, the 2 in the circle will be gone. The time zone 2 is if you travel to different time zones and need it be in sync with that time.
