CHANGING FUNCTIONS AND OTHER NORMAL USE
These are everyday tasks that are not explained elsewhere in the manual.
Changing mode
Once the computer is programmed and installed, it is very easy to use. To change to different modes (functions), simply press the Mode button(s) at the bottom of the computer. Continue pushing the button until the desired function appears denoted by its three letter abbreviation.
Removing the computer from the computer base
The computer is held on its base by a flexible snap. To remove the computer, press firmly on the computer (not on the base) in a rearward direction.
Using the computer in wet weather
Bicycle computers function on electricity. If the electrical contacts between the computer and its base become saturated, the electrical signals may become irregular or interrupted entirely. If the computer is to be used in heavy rain, etc., we recommend that a plastic bag be put over the computer and its base. The other parts of the computer system are waterproof.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
If the computer is giving erratic information, the battery may be running low on power. Replace the battery whenever the computer malfunctions, or every 6 months. When purchasing a new battery, it is best to take the old battery with you. However, this is the generic description for the proper battery:
CR2032, lithium cell, 3 volts
