6. Mounting
6.1 MOUNTING OF MAGNET AND TRANSMITTER
Important! Watch Out when mounting!
The distance between Transmitter and magnet should be 1 to 3 mm.
The distance between Transmitter and Computer should not be larger than 75 cm (30”).
Tip: With Linear Pull/Cantilever-Brakes do not mount the transmitter too close to the brakes.
Distance to the brake should be 10 cm (4”).
STEP 1
Loosely mount Transmitter on the front fork using the zip ties, so that you can still make final adjustments. Mounting on right
or left side of the fork is possible.On the right-side mounting, the battery door of the transmitter will point downwards, so that
the Sensor-marking on the transmitter will point towards the magnet in the spokes.
STEP 2
Loosely mount the magnet at the spoke, so that you still can do final adjustments.
The magnet must point towards the sensor-marking on the Transmitter.
STEP 3
Make final adjustments of the magnet towards the Sensor-marking, ensure the distance between the magnet and the
sensor marking is 1 to 3 mm. To get that distance also adjust the Transmitter towards the magnet.
STEP 4
To finally fix the Transmitter. Pull zip-ties tight. Cut off remaining zip-tie-parts.
STEP 5
To finally fix the magnet. Press the magnet-shell until the magnet is securely fixed at the spoke.
6.2 MOUNTING OF BRACKET
STEP 1
Decide if you want to mount the bracket on handlebar or on stem.
STEP 2
Depending on your decision you may need to turn the foot of the bracket by 90 °.
Remove the 2 screws, turn the foot of the bracket to adjust for either handlebar or stem-mounting.
STEP 3
Fix the foot of the bracket with the 2 screws. Do not overstress the screws.
STEP 4
Fix the bracket to either the handlebar or the stem by using 2 zip-ties.
Cut off the remaining zip-tie-parts.
6.3 HEAD UNIT INSTALLATION
Place the computer into the bracket ( 10-o’clock-position) and turn clockwise until you feel a click and have reached 12 o’clock position.
Watch Out: Make sure the computer is properly placed into the bracket and is turned clockwise until you feel the “Click”.
To remove the computer off the bracket, twist the head counter-clockwise and then lift it out of the bracket.
7. Test of Function
After installation, please check function of your VDO A4+.
Lift the front wheel of your bike. Turn the front wheel. Within 2 to 4 seconds a speed reading should be in display of your VDO A4+.
Otherwise re-check the magnet position and the distance of the magnet towards the Sensor-marking. Re-adjust the position and distance
and check again.Re-check the distance between Transmitter and Computer. This distance should be no larger than 75 cm (30”). Should the
distance be larger, you need to move the transmitter upwards on the fork and re-mount in a closer position towards the Computer.
We wish you many enjoyable rides and trips on your bike with your VDO A4+ cycle computer.
