Installation
Mounting the Computer Head Unit
Attach the handlebar mount to your handlebars using the provided zip ties or straps. Ensure it is securely fastened. Slide the computer head unit onto the mount until it clicks into place. [Note: Ensure the orientation is correct for viewing.]
Installing the Speed Sensor and Magnet
Sensor Placement: Attach the speed sensor to the bicycle's fork using the zip ties. Position it so the arrow on the sensor points towards the wheel's spokes.
Magnet Placement: Attach the magnet to one of the spokes on the front wheel. Ensure the magnet passes close to the sensor when the wheel rotates. A gap of 1-3mm between the magnet and sensor is ideal. [Indicator: The sensor may have a small LED that flashes when the magnet passes.]

Initial Setup
Powering On
Press any button to turn on the computer. The display will illuminate. [Action: Press a button.]
Setting the Wheel Size
The computer needs to know your wheel size to accurately calculate speed and distance. The default is usually 26 inches. To set it:
- Press and hold the 'MODE' button for 3 seconds until the wheel size digits flash.
- Use the 'UP' button to adjust the first digit.
- Press 'MODE' again to move to the next digit.
- Repeat until the correct wheel size is entered. [Tip: Check your tire sidewall for the correct size, or use a circumference measurement.]
- Press and hold 'MODE' for 3 seconds to confirm.

Setting the Clock
After setting the wheel size, the clock will likely appear. Follow similar steps using the 'MODE' and 'UP' buttons to set the hour and minute.
Checking Sensor Pairing
Once the computer is on and the wheel is spun, the speed display should update. If it doesn't, ensure the sensor battery is correctly installed and the magnet is passing the sensor. Some models may require manual pairing, typically by holding a button on the sensor or computer.
Basic Functions
The URBAN WIRELESS+ typically displays:
- Current Speed
- Odometer (Total distance)
- Trip Distance

- Clock
Use the 'MODE' button to cycle through these displays. [Action: Press 'MODE' to change views.]
Care and Maintenance
Keep the computer and sensor clean. Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. Ensure the battery is replaced when the low battery indicator appears. [Indicator: A battery icon will appear on the screen.]
