SAfeTy And gener Al guIdelIne S While riding your bicycle, do not stare at the computer for long periods of time (Figure 1). If you do not watch the road, you could hit an obstacle, which may cause you to lose control and fall. Make sure the computer wire cannot contact the tire or wheel spokes (Figure 2). The wire could be damaged causing the computer to malfunction. Also, the wire could get caught, causing you to lose control and fall. Fgure - Watch the road when rdng. Fgure 2-

Placing the magnet and sensors The wheel magnet must be aligned so that it passes across the sensor. As the magnet passes the sensor, it must be no further from the sensor than 1 to 3mm (1/32 to 1/8 inch). The wheel magnet has a ‘T’ shaped slot with two configurations: round spokes and flat or bladed spokes (Figure 7). The cadence sensor, with the wire, mounts near the crankset. It must be aligned so that the magnet passes within 1-3mm, and in line with the small line on the sensor (Figu

5. With the computer in the computer base, check the alignment of the sensor and magnet by spinning the wheel and noting if the computer is displaying cadence (or for the wheel sensor, speed). If the computer shows cadence (RPM) or current speed, the sensor is reading the magnet. If the computer is not displaying a value, realign the sensor and magnet until one is displayed. 6.

POSITIOnIng Of THe HeAr T r ATe STr AP To monitor your pulse, or heart rate, you must be wearing the heart rate strap. The strap senses each contraction, or beat, of your heart. The beat is sensed electrically, so proper location of the strap is important to attain the strongest signal. To be near to your heart, wear the heart rate strap around your lower rib cage, just under the breasts (Figure 12). For best results, the contact between the sensor and your skin should be moist.
