➊

Charge the Battery

1. On the back of the Edge, pull up the weather cap from the

mini-USB port. Make sure that this area is completely dry to

prevent corrosion.

2. Plug the mini-USB end of the charger into the mini-USB port on

the unit.

3. Plug the A/C charger into a standard wall outlet. Charge the

Edge for at least 3 hours before using. When the battery is

completely charged, it can run for approximately 12 hours

before recharging.

➋

Mount the Edge

You can install the bike mount to the stem or handlebars. The stem

installation (shown here) provides a more sturdy location. Make sure

that the Edge is facing up for the best GPS reception.

To install the Edge on your bike stem:

1. Place the wedge on the bike stem, and then place the bike

mount on the wedge. Make sure the release lever is on the left.

For horizontal bars:

Separate and remove the top part of the

mount, turn it 90 degrees, and replace. Continue with step 2.

For bars with a diameter less than 1 in (25.4 mm):

Place

the additional rubber pad under the bike mount to increase the

diameter of the bar. The rubber pad also keeps the mount from

slipping. Continue with step 2.
