TIP: 

Garmin recommends you secure your

bike on a stand while installing the sensor.

1

Place and hold the speed sensor on

top of the wheel hub.

2

Pull the strap   around the wheel

hub, and attach it to the hook   on

the sensor.

The sensor may be tilted when

installed on an asymmetrical hub. This

does not affect operation.

3

Rotate the wheel to check for

clearance.
The sensor should not contact other

parts of your bike.

NOTE: 

The LED flashes green for five

seconds to indicate activity after two

revolutions.
