The first page explains how to setup the tire size again after changing the battery. You can skip the part about how to calculate the correct tire size, just use 1440.
Thanks, that helps. I saw that site before but was a bit concerned because the pictures of the speedometer in the manual differ from mine. But I'm now thinking that they are all pretty much the same except for the outer case.

What kind of speedometers do you install and how much are they?
