Service indicator shows that your bike should go for a service. You can set the service interval individually for bike 1 and bike 2 Indicator bike 1/bike 2 The computer can work with two different set- tings for 2 bikes. The indicator shows which of the two bikes you have chosen to use. The total distances are accordingly counted and stored separately for bike 1 and bike 2. Measurement unit (KMH or MPH) The computer can display both KHM and MPH. Distances are shown in kilometres or miles accordingly.The indicator shows the selected measurement unit Speed difference indicator (current) to speed (average) The computer compares the current speed with the average speed. The indicator shows

whether the current speed is higher than the average (+1 KMH)

below the average (-1 KMH)

or matches the average (tolerance +/- 1 KMH). Menu prompt indicator When a submenu has been accessed, these indi- cators flash and show that there are other selec- tion options or that the computer is waiting for an entry (setting mode). The display can be divided into 4 sections:

TRIPDISTANCE Shows the distance of the current trip since the last reset.Maximum value 999.99 km. If the maximum value is exceeded, the counter starts again at zero. At the same time the values for ride time and average speed are set back to zero TRIPDISTANCE/MORE MORE shows that there is a submenu for the main menu TRIPDISTANCE. You open the submenu with the

Total kilometres BIKE 1 ODO BIKE 1 up to a maximum of 99,999 km.

Total kilometres for Bike 1 + Bike 2 ODO TOTAL up to a maximum of 199,999 km. You leave the submenu by pressing

again. RIDE TIME Shows the ride time of the current day‘s trip since the last reset. Maximum 23:59:59 HH:MM:SS If the maximum value is exceeded, the ride time measurement starts again at zero. At the same time the day‘s tripdistance and average speed are set back to zero. AVG SPEED Shows the average speed, calculated from the day‘s tripdistance and ride time, since the last reset Accuracy: 2 decimal places. The average speed is recalculated if the day‘s trip- distance or ride time exceeds the maximum value. MAX SPEED Shows the maximum speed on the current trip since the last reset.

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 LeftX1 VDO CYCLECOMPUTING28 www.vdocyclecomputing.com X1 29

5.2 Setting and measuring the wheel size

You must set the wheel size (wheel roll circum- ference) of your bike so that your VDO computer can measure correctly. There are 2 ways of doing this:

You are now in setting mode (pressing

for 3 seconds gets you back to function mode). Using up/down go to WHEELSIZE/SET. Confirm with

MEASUREMENT/KMH. Confirm with

or to change to MPH. WHEELSIZE/BIKE 1 (use to go to setting for bike 2). Confirm with

WHEELSIZE/ TYRE SELECT. Confirm with

The confirmation question appears “Tyresize“/ SELECT OK? When the displayed tyre size matches the one you want, confirm with

To enter the wheel size manually, you must first measure the wheel roll circumference on your bike. Measuring wheel roll circumferences: step 1 Precisely align valve on the front wheel vertically to the ground. Step 2 Mark this spot on the ground with a line (e.g. chalk). step 3 Push the bike forwards one turn of the wheel until the valve is vertical to the ground again. Step 4 Also mark this spot on the ground. Step 5 Measure the distance between the two marks.That is your wheel circumference (=roll circumference). Step 6 Enter the wheel circumference measured in this way into your VDO computer. ATTENTION: If you have selected KMH display, you must enter the wheel circumference in mm (If MPH display is selected, enter the wheel circumference in inches). How to set the wheel size manually: Using go to SETTINGS/ SELECT. Confirm with

Using go to WHEEL-SIZE/MANUAL SET. Confirm with

ATTENTION: The factory settings for bike 1 = 2155 mm and for bike 2 = 2000 mm. If you do not enter any wheel sizes, the computer works with these fac- tory settings. The values measured in this way for speed, distance etc. can differ widely from the actual values.
