computer. We hope this computer gives you miles (or kilometers) of pleasure.
Your Trip computer may not include all of the features discussed in this manual. This manual covers Trip 1 and 4W models.

Dealer or visit www.bontrager.com.
Safety When Riding
When riding your bicycle, do not stare at the computer for a long time (Figure
1). Failure to pay attention to the road ahead of you, obstacles, and traffic could result in a loss of control, serious injury, or death. Stay alert!
Make sure the computer wire cannot contact the tire, rim, or spokes. Contact with wires could damage the computer or cause you to lose control and fall.

Custom Wheel Size
The menu on your computer for tire size is based on averages, but there is some variation in actual tire size even between tires marked as the same.
You can make your computer more accurate by setting a custom wheel size.
To Set a Custom Wheel Size
Measure the roll-out (Figure 6).
Roll-out is the distance your bicycle travels in exactly one revolution of the wheel. If one wheel on your bicycle is bigger, measure the wheel with the magnet.
1.
Start with the valve stem of the wheel directly perpendicular to the floor.
2.
3.
Mark the floor at the valve stem. Placing an object on the floor makes a good mark.
Roll the bike straight forward one revolution of the wheel, so that the valve stem is again directly over the floor.
4.
Mark the new location of the valve stem.
5.
Measure the distance between the marks in millimeters. The result is your
Custom Wheel Size.
1.
Scroll to TME.
2.
Hold for two seconds until the wheel size appears.
For Trip 4W, press M to select Wheel Size 1.
3.
Scroll to the four-digit number (example: 2050).

Battery Maintenance
If the computer is giving erratic information, the battery may be running low.
Replace the battery whenever the computer malfunctions, or every 6 months.
When purchasing a new battery, it is best to take the old battery to the store with you. This is the battery type: CR2032, lithium cell, 3 volts.
When the battery is removed, the computer automatically resets function totals to zero. After installing a new battery, you can manually set your totals, but you must note those values before removing the battery.
To Replace the Battery
1.
Remove the computer from its base. Rotate the battery cover about onequarter turn in a counter-clockwise direction (Figure 9). A coin or flat head screwdriver works well for this.
2.
Lift the battery cover, exposing the battery. Be careful to avoid losing the rubber O-ring seal.
3.
Remove the old battery.
4.
Insert the new battery with the ‘cross’ and identifying label pointing up
(Figure 10).
5.
Replace the battery cover with O-ring seal and rotate clockwise onequarter turn.
Reset
A Reset erases all data and settings. Before a Reset, you may wish to record the total miles (or kilometers) of the odometer so you can set the odometer to this number later during set up.
To Perform a Reset
Hold the Reset button (AC) for two seconds (Figure 11). A ball point pen works well for this. The button is on the back of the computer.
