  If your compatible display unit isn't receiving power (watts) or cadence (RPM) signals from your Stages cycling Bicycle Accessories, first, make sure a working CR2032 battery is correctly installed in the power meter. Then, pedal with a cadence higher than 20 RPM. Finally, check that the power meter is successfully paired with your display unit.

  If the calibration process for your Stages cycling Bicycle Accessories times out, especially when using a Garmin® display with the heart rate (HR) sensor enabled, turn off the HR sensor on your Garmin during calibration and turn it back on after the power meter is calibrated. If the issue persists, attempt zero reset again or contact Stages Cycling – Technical Support.
