Important Precautions:

• Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician.

• Keep your eyes on the road. Do not become overly engaged with the PowerTap display.

We recommend familiarizing yourself with computer functions while stationary.

• The computer, chest strap, and hub are water resistant, not

water proof. Avoid sustained water

contact and do not deliberately place the

PowerTap or its components

in water

or under high-

pressure sprays.

Avoid spraying the unit directly with solvent mixture. Do not use thinner or other solvents to

clean parts.

If you are not familiar with bike maintenance please contact a professional bicycle mechanic

before servicing. The power measuring components of the PowerTap are highly complex and
should only be serviced by Saris Cycling Group.

• The plastic battery cover on the hub should be removed only when replacing batteries.

Repeated disassembly may compromise the effectiveness of the O-ring seals. O-rings should be
inspected and replaced if necessary whenever the battery cover is removed. Use a light
coating of grease when reinstalling the battery cover on the O-rings.

During the course of repair do not remove the torque tube. There are no serviceable parts

inside. Special tools are required for reassembly and calibration. If problems are suspected
contact Saris Cycling Group directly at 800-783-7257 (001 608 274 6550).
