The NuVinci Optimized
Harmony & Harmony H|Sync
Intelligent Drivetrains
The Harmony and Harmony H|Sync
intelligent drivetrain systems are the
first continuously variable automatic
shifting systems for bicycles.
Each system combines electronic shifting
with the award-winning N360
The Harmony system has two handlebar
controller options, offering ultimate
flexibilityand control.
The Harmony H|Sync system is intregrated

completely with leading eBike drivetrain
systems, utilizing the eBike user interface
and allowing optimized inter action
between the eBike and Harmony H|Sync
shifting system.
The NuVinci Optimized CVP
The NuVinci Optimized technology is
a continuously variable planetary (CVP)
drivetrain offering an infinite number of
ratios inside its wide ratio range.
Ratio changes occur within the hub
smoothly via internals that are sealed
forlife and maintenance-free.

the steeper the orange “hill” on the LED

Recalibrating, Upgrading and Troubleshooting
Recalibrating Harmony
If system operation is inconsistent or
incorrect, your Harmony system may
needto be recalibrated.
To do this:
Turn system power on
Pedal the bicycle lightly through
the entire calibration procedure
(preferably on a stand with the rear
wheel off the ground):
Advanced Controller: Hold down
the “Mode” Button until the rear
hub begins shifting (5-7 seconds
typically), then release the button.
EN
Mode Button
Base Controller: Press and hold the
Top and Bottom buttons simultaneously until the rear hub begins
shifting (5-7 seconds typically),
then release the buttons.
Continue pedaling lightly while the
system shifts from “low” to “high”
ratio multiple times and completes
calibration.
Upgrading
If the rider wishes to upgrade from
the Base Controller to the Advanced
Controller at a later date, it’s a simple
“plug and play” installation.

Basic Maintenance and Care
Disconnecting the Rear Wheel
Switch eBike power “off” and dis-
connect the eBike battery (if possible).
1
Remove the Harmony or Harmony
H|Sync Main Connector at the
rear wheel.
Grab the connector at the ribbed
location (1) and pull lightly away from
the Harmony or Harmony H|Sync
Hub Interface.
Do not pull on the cable, only
at the ribbed connector half
as shown.
The connector supplies electrical
power to the Harmony or
Harmony H|Sync unit. Protect
the connector from water or
other conductive elements when
disconnected, as shock or damage to the system could result.
2
Loosen and remove the axle nuts (2)
and the no-turn washers(3).
For rim and roller brake applications,
disconnect the rear brake according
to the manufacturer’s instructions.
3
Remove the rear wheel.
Some bicycles may require rotating
the CVP Axle and Harmony or
Harmony H|Sync Hub Interface to allow removal of the bicycle chain.
In some cases, it is easiest to remove
the chain from the front chain ring to
ease rear wheel removal.

Maintenance and Repair
Cleaning
Your NuVinci Optimized components
are sealed and well protected from the
external environment. However, do not
use water under pressure (such as pressure washers or water jets) for cleaning
to prevent malfunctions due to water
penetration.
During the winter, you should clean
your bicycle in shorter intervals so
that winter road salt cannot cause
any damage.
Do not use aggresive cleaners.
Wear Parts
Handlebar grips, sprockets and bike
chains are wear parts. Please check
these parts regularly and replace them
as necessary.
Lubrication
The NuVinci Optimized CVP is provided
with permanent lubrication and the
CVP internals are maintenance-free
for the life of the product.
The NuVinci Optimized CVP internal
freewheelmechanism is serviceable.
Regular lubrication will extend the
chain’s service life.
Repair Work
Only a qualified bike dealer should
perform any necessary work on the
N360, Harmony or Harmony
H|Sync systems.
Unauthorized work on your N360,
Harmony or Harmony H|Sync system
could endanger you, and your
warranty may become void.
Please contact your qualified bike
dealer regarding any questions or
problem you may have.

Neukalibrieren, Upgrade und Störungsbehebung
Neukalibrieren
des Harmony Systems
Falls das System unbeständig oder fehlerhaft arbeitet, muss das Harmony-System
möglicherweise neu kalibriert werden.
Gehen Sie dazu folgendermaß vor:
Schalten Sie das System ein.
Treten Sie die Pedale des Fahrrads
leicht während des gesamten Kalibriervorgangs (vorzugsweise auf einem
Ständer mit dem Hinterrad vom Boden
abgehoben:
Komfort-Controller: Halten Sie die
Modus-Taste gedrückt, bis die Hinterradnabe zu schalten beginnt (normalerweise nach 5 bis 7 Sekunden).
Lassen Sie dann die Taste los.
Modus-Taste
Basis-Controller: Halten Sie die
obere und untere Taste gleichzeitig
gedrückt, bis die Hinterradnabe zu
schalten beginnt (normalerweise nach
5 bis 7 Sekunden). Lassen Sie dann die
Tasten los.
Treten Sie weiterhin leicht die Pedale,
während das System mehrmals von
einer “niedrigen” zu einer “hohen”
Übersetzung schaltet und die
Kalibrierung abgeschlossen wird.
Upgrade
Wenn der Fahrer zu einem späteren
Zeitpunkt vom Basis-Controller zum
Komfort-Controller aufrüsten möchte, ist
dies durch eine einfache “Plug-and- Play”Installation möglich. Näheres erfahren
Sie von Ihrem Händler oder direkt von
NuVinci Cycling.
