Installation on Your Bike
Mount the Speed & Cadence sensor, cadence magnet, and speed magnet on your bike.
- Pairing with the cyclocomputer may not be possible due to the influence of the 2.4 GHz frequency band. If pairing fails, try again someplace where there is no interference from microwaves, radio waves, or wireless equipment.
Do not use magnets other than the enclosed ones.
Installing the Cadence Magnet
- Remove the pedal from the crank.
- Install the cadence magnet to the crank.

Install it so the magnet part is facing to the chain stay side.

The magnet can be installed to a crank that is from about 85mm up to 100mm in circumference.
Before installing, be sure your crank does not have an irregular shape that would prohibit secure installation.
Be careful not to get injured when installing the cadence magnet.
After installing the cadence magnet, confirm that it is not cracked. If it is cracked, do not use it.
Installing the Speed & Cadence Sensor
If you cannot install the Speed & Cadence sensor with the sensor mounting band, use the cable ties instead.
1. Temporarily mount the Speed & Cadence sensor on the chain stay.
Hook the band on the hook located on the back side of the sensor, and then put the band in the groove on the front side to temporarily mount the sensor on the chain stay.


The sensor can be installed to a chain stay that is from about 100mm up to 120mm in circumference. Before installing, be sure your chain stay does not have an irregular shape that would prohibit secure installation. Do not overly tighten the band as they may break.
2. Adjust the location of the Speed & Cadence sensor.
Adjust the sensor by tilting it so the center of the cadence magnet passes about 3mm from the sensor part (concave part) of the Speed & Cadence sensor when the crank is rotated.

When the sensor detects the cadence magnet as the cranks are rotated, the LED blinks green every time it is detected, up to 10 times.
After blinking 10 times, the LED will not light even though the sensor detects the magnet. The LED starts blinking again if you re-install the sensor's battery or wait at least 20 minutes after the last time the sensor detects the magnet.
Installing the Speed Magnet
EN
- Loosen the screw of the speed magnet and remove the magnet part.

- Install the speed magnet to the spoke of the back wheel.

The magnet can be installed on a spoke that is from about 1.5mm up to 2.5mm in diameter.
Before installing, be sure your spoke does not have an irregular shape that would prohibit secure installation.
Installing the magnet may damage the spoke. Protect the spoke if you do not want to damage it.
Be careful not to lose the sheet and so on, when installing the magnet.
After installing the magnet, check that its screw has not been screwed in at an angle.
3. Adjust the angle of the speed detector arm.
Adjust the angle of the arm by turning the hex screw so the center of the speed magnet passes about 3mm from the sensor part (concave part) of the arm when the wheel is rotated.

When the sensor detects the speed magnet as the wheel rotates, the LED blinks red up to 10 times each time it is detected.
Install the sensor so the arm does not interfere with the spokes. Do not move the arm beyond its range of motion (60^)

After blinking 10 times, the LED will not light even though the sensor detects the magnet. The LED starts blinking again if you re-install the sensor's battery or wait at least 20 minutes after the last time the sensor detects the magnet.
Speed is not detected until you • tighten the angle adjustment screw of the arm.
Fixing the Sensor
After installing the Speed & Cadence sensor, cadence magnet, and speed magnet, pair the sensor with the Cyclocomputer SGX-CA500 or other cyclocomputer, and confirm that the cadence is displayed with the rotation of the crank, and the speed is displayed with the rotation of the wheel. Refer to the Quick Start Guide of the Cyclocomputer SGX-CA500 or your cyclocomputer's owner manual for sensor pairing.
After confirming that the information from the Speed & Cadence sensor is displayed correctly, fix the band with the fixing tape for the sensor's band.

After fixing the Speed & Cadence sensor, install the pedal to the crank.
Be sure to use the fixing tape. If you do not use the fixing tape, the sensor's band may slip off and the sensor may fall off during a ride. Do not re-use the fixing tape. The used fixing tape may come off during a ride because its adhesion has decreased.
Securely fix the Speed & Cadence sensor to the chain stay so it does not fall towards the crank or spokes while riding.
Before riding, check that the sensor and magnets are installed securely. Also check that the speed detector arm's screw is not loose, there are no cracks in the band, and the band's fixing tape is not coming off.
For best results, keep the sensors and magnets free of mud, dust, or debris.
Installing and Removing the Battery
EN
The battery is pre-installed to this product. If the battery is almost empty (see page 22), replace the battery with new one.
1. Remove the battery cover of the Speed & Cadence sensor.
Turn the cover counterclockwise with a tool such as a coin or screwdriver, until it stops turning.

2. Remove the old battery.

3. Install the new battery (CR2032) and close the battery cover.
Insert the battery with its (-) side facing up and wait more than 3 seconds to remove it. Then insert it with its (+) side facing up. Doing this resets the sensor so it operates reliably.
Then turn the battery cover clockwise until it stops and is closed tightly.

Be careful not to lose the rubber gaskets when removing the battery cover.

Be careful not to drop or lose the battery when installing it.
Do not use batteries other than CR2032.
Install the cover firmly to ensure water resistant performance.
If a mud or water is on the battery cover, wipe it off with a dry cloth before removing the cover. Do not touch the cover with wet hands.
When disposing of used batteries, please comply with governmental regulations or environmental public institutions rules that apply in your country or area.
Keep coin batteries out of reach of children.
Troubleshooting
EN
If you have problems with your device, check the following items. If a solution to your problem cannot be found here, contact your dealer.
Speed & Cadence sensor information is not displayed on the cyclocomputer. / I cannot pair the sensor with the cyclocomputer.
| Cause Solution | |
| Sensitivity of the sensor has become low due to dirt such as mud on the sensor or magnets. | Wipe off dirt from the sensor or magnets. |
| The battery is almost empty. Replace | the battery with a new one (see page 20). |
| (+) or (-) side of the battery is installed in the opposite side. | Install the battery in the proper side (see page 20). |
| The battery is not installed correctly. | Install the battery again (see page 20). |
| The sensor is not mounted correctly. | Confirm the position of the sensor and magnets, and the distance between them (see page 16, 17). |
| Pairing between the sensor and the cyclocomputer has not been done. | Check if the sensor is paired with the cyclocomputer. If not, pair them. Refer to the Quick Start Guide of the Cyclocomputer SGX-CA500 or your cyclocomputer's owner manual for sensor pairing. |
| Sensor has not been reset. Install the | battery with its (+) side down and wait more than 3 seconds, then remove the battery. The sensor is reset in this way. |
| Connection is not possible due to the influence of the 2.4 GHz frequency band. | Try pairing again someplace where there is no interference from microwaves, Wi-Fi such as a wireless LAN, or other wireless ANT equipment. |
Speed is not displayed.
| Cause Solution | |
| The screw of the speed detector arm is loose. | Tighten the screw of the speed detector arm so it is not loose. Speed is not detected if the screw is loose. |
