Before using the computer, please thoroughly read this manual and keep it for future reference.

Warning / Caution

• Do not concentrate on the computer while riding.

Ride safely!

• Install the magnet, sensor, and bracket securely.

Check these periodically.

• If a child swallows a battery, consult a doctor immediately.

• Do not leave the computer in direct sunlight for a long period of time.

• Do not disassemble the computer.

• Do not drop the computer to avoid malfunction or damage.

• When cleaning the computer, bracket and sensor, do not use thinners, benzene, or alcohol.

• Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.

Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations.

• LCD screen may be distorted when viewed through polarized sunglass lenses.

Troubleshooting

No display.

Is battery in the computer run down?

Replace with new batteries according to the procedure specified in the section “Replacing the battery”.

Incorrect data appear.

Follow the procedure described “Preparing the computer” (page 3).

Current speed does not appear.

(First, short-circuit the contact of the computer a few times with a piece of metal. If current speed appears, the computer is working fine and the cause should be attributed to the bracket or the sensor.)

Is the wire broken?

Even if the outside of the wire looks normal, there could be damage. Replace the bracket sensor kit with a new one.

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 5 mm.)

Is there anything sticking on the contact of the computer or the bracket?

Clean the contact with a cloth.

Tire circumference

You can fi nd the tire circumference (L) of your tire size in the chart below, or actually measure the tire circumference (L) of your bicycle.

• How to measure the tire circumference (L)

For the most accurate measurement, do a wheel roll out. With the tires under proper pressure, place the valve stem at the bottom. Mark the spot on the fl oor and with the rider’s weight on the bike, roll exactly one L cm wheel revolution in a straight line (until the valve comes around again to the bottom). Mark where the valve stem is and measure the distance.

How to calculate the Carbon offset (VL820) *3

The Carbon offset are calculated as follows.

Trip distance (km) x 0.15 = Carbon offset (kg)

* This factor of 0.15 is determined by applying the average value of the overall gasoline-powered passenger cars in 2008 to the equation of the “Carbon offset from 1 km drive of a gasoline-powered car” described on the website of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and Tourism.
