Caution
Do not concentrate on the computer operations while riding. Always be sure to ride safety.
Be sure to securely mount the magnet, sensor and bracket on your bicycle, and periodically check to see if any
parts have loosened.
Used batteries are harmful if swallowed by mistake. They must be disposed in accordance with local regulations.
Do not leave the main unit exposed to direct sunlight. Never disassemble the main unit.
For cleaning of the main unit or accessories, use diluted neutral detergent on a soft cloth, and then wipe it off with
a dry cloth. Do not use paint thinner, benzine or alcohol since such chemicals may damage the surface.

This feature is only available on the VELO8. No measurement is done on the VELO5.
Start/Stop of Measuring
The unit starts measuring automatically when you start pedaling, and stops measuring when your come to a stop.
The upper display always shows the Current Speed.
Shift of Lower Display
Each time you press the MODE button, a different data value appears on the lower line.
e
Power Saving Function
If the main unit does not receive a signal after about 10 minutes, the main unit enters Power Saving Mode and
displays the clock count only. To re turn to normal display, press the MODE button or start your bicycle again to
cancel the Power Saving function.
Data Reset
When a screen with the
Reset
mark in the OPERATION FLOW is displayed, continue pressing the MODE button
and the measured data will return to zero. However, the Odometer (total distance) and Clock do not return to zero.
How to Set Clock
In the clock mode, press SET button on the back, and the display enters clock setting mode.
*If Km/h has been selected for speed scale, it becomes 24-hour clock.
If mph has been selected, it becomes 12-hour clock.
f
How to Change Tire Size
Display the Total Distance (Odo) and press the SET button to change the tire size. You can select a tire size in two
ways: Either select from among preset sizes
c
or enter the tire’s circumference directly in increments of 1 cm. d
Maintenance
If the contact of the unit or the bracket gets wet, dry it off with a cloth. If they become rusty, it will cause speed
detection error.
If the gaps between the buttons and the unit get clogged with mud or sand, wash them away with water.
Troubleshooting
No display.
Has the battery in the main unit run down?
Replace it with a new one.
Incorrect data appears.
Do all clear operation.
Current speed does not appear.(First, short-circuit the contact of the main unit a few times with a piece of metal. If current
speed appears, the main unit is working fine and the cause should be attributed to the bracket or the sensor.)
Is the clearance between the sensor and the magnet too large?
Are the magnet's center and the sensor's marking line aligned?
Re-adjust the positions of the magnet and the sensor. (The clearance should be less than 5mm.)
Is the cord broken?
Even if the outside of the cord looks normal, there could be damage.
Replace the bracket and sensor set with a new one.
Is there anything sticking on the contact of the main unit or the bracket?
Clean the contact with a cloth.
Current speed disappears when using in the rain.
Wipe any water or dirt from the contacts and apply a water repellent silicon grease. Do not apply standard grease,
as it may cause damage to the bracket.
Replacing Battery
If the screen becomes dim, it is the time to replace the battery.
g
*Insert a new lithium battery (CR2032) with the (+) mark facing up.
1 After replacing the battery, perform the all-clear operation. Follow SETTING to select the measurement unit & tire
size and set the clock display to the current time.
