2. Insert a micro-USB cable into the port and connect to a 5v USB power supply.

Step 2: Install MFR Pod
1. Determine the appropriate location for the pod.
a. Make sure you have access to the MAB and can access the Shift Button
Port in the mounting location.
b. Verify there is sufcient length of shift button cable for the mounting location.
c. If mounting on the handlebar or stem, turn your bars to make sure the MFR
Pod does not hit the bike frame.
d. If mounting off the handlebar or stem, make sure to provide sufcient slack
in the shift button cable to allow for full range of motion of the handlebars
when turning.
2. Use an appropriately sized O-ring to afx the pod to a secure location on
your bike.
Note: The optional double-sided adhesive
strip can be used to provide a more
secure mounting, however the adhesive
should be used in conjunction
with the O-ring, not by itself.

Step 3: Install the MFR Satellite Buttons
1. Depending on your bike, consider removing the old handlebar tape.
2. Determine the optimal placement of each shift button on your handlebars.
Note: Do not worry which string of buttons is Up Shift and which is
Down Shift – this can be adjusted in the app using the “Reverse Shift Button”
toggle in the Settings Menu.
3. There are 2 methods of attaching the shift buttons to your bars, a zip tie
or with the adhesive tape AND using bar tape to secure them in place.
4. If using zip ties, tighten the tie only until the button is secure on the bars.
Overtightening the zip tie can lead to poor shift performance.
Note: The Satellite Buttons will not stay in place using the adhesive tape alone.
You must secure the buttons to your bike with either a zip tie or handlebar tape.

5. If using the Double Strand buttons, remember that both buttons on a single
wire will have the same function (either shift up or shift down). You cannot
program one button on the wire to shift up and the other to shift down.
Note: Do not cover the rubber portion of the shift button with bar tape,
this will impede button performance. You must be able to feel the button
click under the rubber.
