Maintenance and cleaning
The only items of the power meter that can be serviced by the owner are the
battery, battery cover and o-ring. No other items are serviceable and no
attempt should be made to adjust or alter any other items.
The power meter uses a custom o-ring and is lubricated with o-ring grease.
The grease protects the o-ring from abrasions, environmental conditions and
is critical to ensure proper water resistance. When servicing the o-ring ensure
it is well coated with a grease designed for use on o-rings which may be
obtained at most hardware stores.
When cleaning the power meter use only water dampened cloth to wipe o
dirt and debris. Never use any harsh cleaning chemicals that may damage
the plastic housing. Inspect the battery compartment to ensure the batter
contact is clean of any corrosion.
Never directly spray the power meter or battery door with high
pressure water. The water pressure from sprayers can reach thousands
of pounds per square inch and may force water past the o-ring
damaging the power meter electronics.
Firmware
Firmware is the programming that operates the power meter's computer.
The power meter has been designed to allow over-the-air (OTA) rmware
updates. Updated rmware may be developed and released by Stages
Cycling to provide added or improved functionality. Firmware updates
may be sent to the power meter by way of the Stages Cycling Utility App
for Apple® iOS devices using a Bluetooth Smart compatible (BLE 4.0) model
such as the iPhone® 4s, 5 or newer and iPad® 3, Mini or newer. At the time
of printing, Android™ Apps supporting Bluetooth OTA updates of the
power meter rmware are not yet available; however, these may be
developed and released at a later date. Please check our website at:
www.stagescycling.com/support-app for links to the available utility
Apps hosted in the App stores as well as instructions on how to utilize the
App for rmware update and other procedures.

The Stages power meter is considered to be the entire left crank arm, not just
the electronics and housing mounted to the crank arm. As such customers are
instructed to contact their retailer or Stages Cycling directly for all warranty
claims related to the left crank arm power meter. Do not contact the crank arm
manufacturer for warranty concerns regarding the left arm as they are not in a
position to provide service for this product once the power meter electronics
have been permanently integrated.
To pursue a warranty claim please contact the retailer that sold the power
meter. If the power meter was purchased directly from Stages Cycling please
contact us directly via email or phone.
In all cases a Return Authorization Number (RA#) must be issued by
