Troubleshooting - Garmin Vector Series Quick Start Manual

Adjusting the Release Tension
Do not overtighten the release tension screw on the bottom of
the pedal. The release tension should be adjusted equally for
both pedals.
Use a 3 mm hex key to adjust the release tension of each
pedal.
There is a window on the back of the pedal binding that
shows the allowable range.
Paring Vector with Your Edge ® 1000
Before you can view Vector data on the Edge device, you must
pair the devices.
Pairing is the connecting of ANT+™ wireless sensors. This
procedure contains instructions for the Edge 1000. If you have
another compatible device, see your owner's manual, or go to
www.garmin.com/vectorowner.
1
Bring the Edge device within range (3 m) of the sensor.
NOTE: Stay 10 m away from other ANT+ sensors while
pairing.
2
Turn on the Edge device.
3 From the home screen, select
Power.
4
Rotate the crank arm a few times.
When the sensor is paired with your Edge device, the sensor
status is Connected. You can customize a data field to display
Vector data.
Your First Ride
Before you ride with Vector for the first time, you must enter the
crank length, set the installation angle of the sensors inside the
pedals, and calibrate the static zero reference. You must also
calibrate the system if you move Vector to another bike.
These procedures contain instructions for the Edge 1000. If you
have another compatible device, see your owner's manual or go
to www.garmin.com/vectorowner.
Entering the Crank Length
The crank length is often printed on the crank arm.
1
Rotate the pedals a few times in order to activate Vector.
2
From the home screen, select
Details > Crank Length.
3
Enter the crank length, and select
Setting the Installation Angle
Before you set the installation angles, you must set the Edge
data fields to display power and cadence.
1
Go for a short ride on a trainer or on the road.
2
Ride until the cadence is nearly 70 rpm.
3
Accelerate smoothly to approximately 90 rpm.
When the installation angles are successfully set, a message
appears and data fields display power data on the Edge
device.
Performing a Static Zero Calibration
NOTE: During this task, the bike must be in an upright position,
and nothing can be touching the pedals.
1
From the home screen, select the status bar or swipe down
from the top of the screen.
The connections page appears.
