I N S T A L L A T I O N M A G N E T I N S T A L L A T I O N Quarq power meters measure cadence using a magnet, or if a magnet is not present, by using an accelerometer that is built into the power meter.
The BB Cup Mount is only compatible with threaded bottom brackets. It does not work with frames that have bearings pressed into the bottom bracket (BB30, PF30, etc.). Frames using threaded bottom bracket adapters (ie. SRAM GXP30 BB Adapter) may use the BB Cup Mount if the mount is installed onto the threaded drive side bottom bracket cup.
C A B L E G U I D E M O U N T I N S T A L L A T I O N The Cable Guide Mount should only be used when the cable guide is fastened with a screw. If the cable guide is fastened with a rivet, use the Bottom Bracket Cup Mount or Adhesive Putty instead.
A D H E S I V E P U T T Y I N S T A L L A T I O N The included adhesive putty will permanently attach the magnet to your frame. Other non-permanent attachment options include: hot glue, some epoxies, electrical tape, or similar adhesives. N O T I C E Do not allow the magnet to contact the power meter.
C R A N K I N S T A L L A T I O N Install the crankset and bottom bracket assembly onto your bike according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Once the crankset has been installed, the power meter must not contact the frame or any other components. Please contact Quarq customer service with any frame compatibility questions.
P A I R I N G Before pairing your power meter to a computer, make sure you are at least 10 meters (30 feet) from any other ANT+™ device. This will keep you from accidentally pairing to another person’s ANT+ device. To pair the power meter with an ANT+ computer, first spin the crank backwards 2-3 times to wake the power meter and begin broadcasting ANT+ messages.
Z E R O I N G The power meter must be zeroed to compensate for environmental changes. The power meter can be zeroed two ways: Auto Zero and Manual Zero. When to perform the Zero procedure For best results, you should perform the Manual Zero procedure before each ride. The Auto Zero procedure can be performed instead of a Manual Zero or if your computer cannot send a “Calibrate”...

Z E R O I N G C O N T I N U E D Auto Zero Spin the crank backwards for 4-5 complete revolutions. The LED will flash one time when zeroing is complete. The computer will not display the Zero Offset value. The Auto Zero procedure may be performed while coasting with the rider on the bike, stopped using one or both feet, or by hand with the rider off of the bike.

C H A I N R I N G S C H A I N R I N G I N F O R M A T I O N On power meters with OmniCal™ you can swap chainrings without impacting accuracy� They do not need recalibration when you change chainrings or chainring sizes�...
When installing chainrings you must align the chainring tabs and derailment pin so they are in line with the crank arm. Tighten the SRAM steel chainring bolts to 10 N·m (88.5 in-lb). Tighten other chainring bolts according to the manufacturer’s instruction.
