Our Cyclecomputer database is your starting point when looking for information on cyclecomputers. It links to owner's manuals for most cyclecomputers. Sometimes we had to work without a manual, or have additional information. It's on this page for Cateye computers.

Look for similarities in appearance and function when trying instructions for a computer not on our list. Many bicycle computers are rebranded. Please let us know of rebranded models which you have identified.

Old versions of manufacturers' Web sites preserved on the Internet Archive may list older models. A Web search on the make and model, plus "manual" or "instructions" sometimes turns up information posted by an owner. If you have information on a model not covered here, please send it in.

If you make a note of the odometer reading before changing batteries, you can re-enter the total distance reading after installing the new battery.

Entering "set" mode for total reset. Do this to clear the computer's memory after replacing the battery:

1. Push all three buttons at once ("SET" button is on underside of unit.)
2. Press "MODE" (top) button to select "mph" (miles) or "km/h" (kilometers).
3. Press "MODE" (top) button for two seconds to enter "odometer setting" (total km/miles) mode.
4. Use "START/STOP" (front) button to change which digit is flashing.
5. Press "MODE" (top) button to adjust that digit.
6. When total miles/km value is set to desired number, press "SET" (underside) button to accept and enter wheel calibration mode.
7. Use "MODE" (top) button to raise calibration number, or "START/STOP" (front) button to decrease it.

   Note: This unit permits the entry of two different calibration numbers ("A" & "B") to allow the same computer to be used with different bicycles

8. When calibration value "A" is set to desired number, press "SET" (underside) button to accept and put the computer into normal operation.. If you hold the "SET" button for 2 seconds or more, you enter the mode to set the alternate ("B") calibration number.

Modes:

Pressing the "MODE" button will cycle the computer through the modes:

• Av (Average speed)
• Dst (Trip distance 1 or 2)
• Odo (Distance since total reset)
• Mx (Maximum speed during trip)
• Tm/clock (Elapsed time or clock time)

Settings may be changed in these modes as described below.

Entering "Set" mode to revise wheel size without losing mileage:

1. Use "MODE" (top) button to get to "ODO" mode.
2. Use "START/STOP" (front) button to put into "stop" state (mile/h symbol not flashing.)
3. Press the "SET" (underside) button. The calibration number will flicker.
4. Press and hold the "SET" button for 2 seconds to switch back and forth between "A" and "B" calibration value.

To set the clock time

Cycle through the modes until Tm or the clock is displayed. If Tm is displayed, press the MODE button for 2 seconds to display the clock time. Then press the "SET" button. The hour display will flash and can be changed using the "MODE" button, more quickly if you hold the button down. The "START/STOP" button will switch between setting the hour and the minute. The clock displays 24-hour time if the computer is set to record kilometers, and 12-hour time if to record miles. Press the "SET" button again to return to normal clock mode, and the "MODE" button if you would like to return to elapsed time mode. The clock does not know about daylight savings time: you will have to reset it manually.

To switch wheel size setting ("A" or "B"):

When "ODO" is displayed, press the "MODE" and "START/STOP" buttons at the same time to view the wheel calibration setting.

If these buttons are further held down for more than 3 seconds, the wheel calibration value moves between "A" and "B" values.

In other modes, you may press the "SET" button for two seconds at the same time to switch between "A" and "B" values.

You may revise the tire size in either "A" or "B" as described above.

Auto time or elapsed time

When Elapsed Time, Average Speed, Trip Distance 1 or 2 is displayed, then press the SET (underside) button to turn the [AT] icon to the right of the "A" or "B" display on or off. When on,, the computer records only riding time, and the icon flashes while it is being recorded; when off, you must press the START/STOP button to turn the timer on or off. This also turns recording of trip distance and average speed on or off.

To switch between elapsed time and clock time

When in Elapsed Time mode, press the MODE button for 2 seconds to switch to Clock Time mode, Press the MODE button briefly to return to Elapsed time mode.

Trip distance 1 and 2:

When in Trip distance (Dst) mode 1, press the "MODE" button for two seconds to switch to Trip Distance mode 2, and vice versa. These are reset independently, so you can use Trip Distance 2 to record segments within a trip, etc.

Resetting time, average speed and distance

When Elapsed Time, Trip Distance 1, Average Speed or Maximum Speed is displayed, press both the "MODE" and "START/STOP" buttons at once for 2 seconds to reset all of these to zero. When trip distance 2 is selected, pressing this combination resets only trip distance 2.
