4 Installation
4.1 Fitting the sensor, magnet and handlebar holder >>> P01
When fitting to suspension forks, it is essential
to bear in mind the spring deflection of the
forks. The cable requires an appropriate amount
of play.
ATTENTION: Risk of broken cable.
Step 1 Place the rubber pad under the sensor.
Fit the sensor on the same side of the fork where
you later want to fit the computer to the handle-
bars (right or left) using the cable ties supplied
(loose at first, do not pull tight just yet).
Depending on the room available, the sensor can
be fitted at the front of the fork, inner side of the
fork or backside of the forks.
>>> P02
Step 2 Place spoke magnet around an outer
spoke. The silver middle of the magnet points
towards the sensor. Align the magnet to the
sensor mark with a gap of about 1 - 5 mm.
Step 3 Align sensor and magnet for good and
fasten in place: Pull cable ties tight and push
magnet in firmly.
Step 4 Install cable from sensor already fitted
along brake cable to the handlebars (fasten with
cable ties supplied) Ideally: Coil sensor cable up
around the brake cable.
Step 5 Decide whether fitting to handlebar or
stem and turn the base of the handlebar holder
by 90° accordingly. To do so, undo the screws in
the holder, take out the foot and turn it 90°, in-
sert and tighten the screws again.
ATTENTION: Do not over tighten screws.
Step 6 Guide the cable ties through the slot in
the handlebar holder, place around the handle
bars or the stem and pull (do not pull tight just
yet).
Step 7 If fitting to handlebars: Align computer
angle to achieve optimum readability. Now pull
cable ties tight. Snip off protruding ends with
clippers.
4.2 Installing the battery in the computer >>> P03
Your VDO computer is supplied with a 3V battery
(type 2032). The battery is already installed
when supplied. To change the battery, proceed
as follows:
step 1 Place the battery in the computer casing
with the +terminal facing up.
Step 2 Make sure that the battery does not
get wedged.
step 3 Take care that the rubber seal lies flat on
the battery compartment lid.
Step 4 Insert the battery compartment lid into the
opening and turn it with a coin to the right as far
as it will go (approx. 1/3 turn).
TIP for changing battery: VDO recommends chang-
ing the battery once a year. Buy a new battery in
good time to ensure the function works perfectly.
When the battery is changed, all basic compu-
ter settings are reset to factory settings. Before
removing the old battery, it is therefore essential
to note down the wheel sizes entered and the
total kilometres cycled so far for your bike 1 and
bike 2. Program these in again after inserting the
new battery.
4.4 Placing the computer into the handlebar holder >>> P04
The VDO twist-click system fastens the computer
securely with the handlebar holder.
Step 1 Place computer into the holder in 10 o’clock
position.
Step 2 Twist computer to the right to 12 o’clock posi-
tion and click into the holder system.
Step 3 To take the computer out, twist to the left
(do not push or pull).
How to remember: Rigid to the Right, Loose to the Left
