HOW IT WORKS
The Live Valve system automatically switches between two compression positions, open
and firm, to quickly adjust to the terrain. This means you get a firm, ecient pedaling
platform until bumps are encountered.
Fun Facts:
• The Live Valve system monitors each wheel independently and can switch
between open and firm up to 1000 times per second.
• As bumps are detected, Live Valve switches to the open mode in 3 milliseconds.
This is 100 times faster than the blink of an eye!
• If the accelerometer detects zero gravity (freefall) for longer than 25 milliseconds,
such as during a jump or drop, the suspension automatically opens to allow the
next impact.
• Performance of the system is optimized to work seamlessly in all riding scenarios,
from steep climbs, to endless rolling singletrack to rugged descents.
• The technology behind Live Valve is a combination of two traditional damping
circuits with an electronic valve.
• The system optimizes battery life by changing positions only when needed.
• When the bike is stationary for more than 90 minutes, the Live Valve controller
automatically opens the suspension and then shuts o to maintain battery life.
The power button must be pressed to turn the system on again.
TROUBLESHOOTING
• If the suspension feels very firm or stuck in open mode, recalibrate the system by
following the calibration procedure in the Live Valve Owner’s Guide or online at
www.ridefox.com/Livevalve.
• If the OFF button is flashing twice every 10 seconds, this indicates a low battery
level. Charge the battery.
• If the OFF button is flashing continuously, this indicates a sensor is disconnected.
Verify that all cables are properly connected. Each cable is labeled with its
corresponding part. The Live Valve system must be connected properly
to function.
