Precautions: Important

Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician.

Keep your eyes on the road. Do not become overly engaged with the PowerTap display. We recommend familiarizing yourself with computer functions while stationary.

The computer, receiver, and hub are water resistant, not water proof. Avoid sustained water contact and do not deliberately place the PowerTap or its components in water or under high- pressure sprays. Therefore caution should be used when riding in rain. Following such rides, special precautions should be taken including removing the PowerTap plastic twist cap and allowing the hub to air dry.

Wash off dirt with a cloth soaked in a weak mixture of neutral detergent and water and wipe excess water off with a dry cloth Avoid spraying the unit directly with solvent mixture. Do not use thinner or other solvents to clean parts as they may dissolve the plastic console casings.

If you are not familiar with bike maintenance please contact a professional bicycle mechanic before servicing. The power measuring components of the PowerTap are highly complex and should only be serviced by Saris Cycling Group.

The plastic cover on the hub should be removed only when replacing batteries or when allowing the unit to dry after submersion in water. Repeated disassembly may compromise the effectiveness of the O-ring seals. O-rings should be inspected and replaced if necessary when ever the battery cover is removed. Use a light coating of grease when reinstalling the battery cap on the O-rings.

During the course of repair do not remove the torque tube. There are no serviceable parts inside. Special tools are required for reassembly and calibration. If problems are suspected contact Saris Cycling Group directly at 800-783-7257 (001 608 274 6550).
