  4. Select RPM SENSOR with the STAGE button by scrolling through the menu with the AVG/END button, then select ENTER ANT.
    - Locate the ANT+ ID on the sticker attached to the left crank arm.
  5. Enter the ANT+ ID from the crank sticker using the following keys:
    - Use the BACKLIGHT button to advance the digit. The number will increase from 0-9 and return to 0.
