INSTRUCTION MANUAL

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing CATEYE CYCLOCOMPUTER Model CC-A T100. As well as cyclocomputer function, this model has altimeter function, which measures altitude and atmospheric temperature, by sensing the changes of the atmospheric pressure with the pressure-sensor. When cycling in a hilly area with a mountain bike, it gives the current altitude (above sea level) and trip altitude gain in the 1 meter resolution. The screen is backlit for night viewing. In addition to functions for the bicycling activity, it can be used on its o wn as an independent altimeter for mountain climbing. The features are as follows:

Altimeter Functions:

• Measures current altitude (above sea level), trip altitude gain, total altitude gain in a temperaturecompensated 1 meter resolution.

• Measures atmospheric temperature.

• Can reset trip altitude gain alone.

• Gives choices of usage, with two types of measuring modes.

• Can be used for activities other than bicycling, with accessory parts.

Cyclocomputer Functions:

• Current speed • Maximum speed

• Average speed • Total distance

• Trip distance • Elapsed time

• Clock time • Auto (Automatic start/stop) function

• Can reset maximum speed, average speed, trip distance, elapsed time.

Aspects of Main Unit:

• The screen backlight enables you to read the computer screen even at night.

• Any data stored in memory (total distance, total altitude gain, wheel circumference etc.) will not be

lost with an all-clear operation or by changing the battery.

Before operating, thoroughly familiarize yourself with this manual so that you understand the functions completely. Please keep this manual, along with the warranty card, for future reference.

FOR SAFE OPERATIONS (IMPORTANT)

For safe and appropriate use, always observe the following.

Caution:

• Don't pay too much attention to your cyclocomputer functions when riding. Keep your eyes on the road and give due consideration to safe riding.

• This altimeter is not intended to be a specialized measuring device.

Proper use and care:

• Never disassemble the main unit. It can not be re-assembled.

• The main unit is loaded with sensitive components. A strong impact may result in malfunction. Don't intentionally submerge the

main unit under water. Although the main unit is water-resistant (such as rain), it is not designed to be used underwater.

• Don't leave the main unit exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods of time.

• If the main unit is superheated by direct sunlight, the temperature sensor inside of the main unit will not give the correct tempera-

ture.

• The Cat Eye CC-AT100 is essentially a barometer. It measures the change in barometric pressure whether caused by a change in altitude or a change in weather.

• The current altitude should be calibrated before each ride.

• Sudden temperature change can cause a temporary incorrect altitude display.

• When using this unit as an independent altimeter, switch off the bicycle symbol to allow it in the continuous measuring mode.

• Static electricity might cause incorrect data.

• If the S/S(Start/Stop) button, Mode button and Set button are pressed simultaneously, all the stored data will be erased.

• In an aircraft, the unit will not give a correct data because of the regulated pressure.

Maintenance:

• When the main unit or the contact gets wet, dry it off with a cloth; rust will cause functional errors.

• Fasten the magnet and the speed sensor securely, and check their relative position periodically. Incorrect attachment of these

parts may cause an accident.

• If the altitude sensor cover is clogged with mud or sand, it will stop measuring accurately. Clean it off according to "Daily Care" instructions.

• If the main unit or accessories/attachments become dirty with mud etc., gently wash with mild soap and wipe dry with a soft cloth. Never apply paint thinner, benzine or alcohol; damage will result.

Battery Cover

1. How to Put in a Battery

1.Remove the battery cover on the back with a coin or a similar opener (Fig. 1).

2.Insert a new lithium battery (CR2032) with the (+) pole upward as illustrated. Close the cover securely.

3.Press the AC button, and reset the speed scale and the clock time again according to "Main Unit

CR2032

Preparation".

Replacing Battery

When the battery has worn out, replace it with a new one according to the following instruction.

Warning: Safely dispose of the old battery; and don't place it within children's reach. If swallowed

by mistake, consult a doctor immediately. Battery Life: approx. one year (one hour's altitude measuring per day)

Note: If the display disappears with the press of the light button, or often shows irregular altitude, it means

the battery has worn out. Replace it with a new one.

Caution: Before replacing the battery, be sure to leave the unit for more than 5 minutes so that the power

saving function is on; in this way, it will update the data and memorize the newest measurements.

(Refer to page 13: "Power Saving Function".)

2. Main Unit Preparation

The following process must be completed before starting to use.

-1. How to Measure Wheel Circumference

In order to get the accurate value, measure the wheel circumference (L) actually from the tire of your bicycle (Fig. 2). Put a mark on the tire tread, and ride one full wheel revolution; then mark the ground at the end of one revolution and measure the distance between the two marks. Or, "Setting Values Cross Reference Table" (page 19) can tell the approximate wheel circumference according to the tire size.

-2. Setting Speed Scale

First, press the AC button; all displays illuminate and then "km/h" symbol appears (Fig.3). With each press of the S/S button, "km/h" and "mile/h" appears alternately. Select the desired scale and press the Set button to fix the scale. This speed scale corresponds to the altitude scale; if "km/h" is selected, the altitude scale will be "meter", and if "mile/h" is selected, the altitude scale will be "feet".
