CYCLAMI Smart Brake Warning Radar Fietsachterlicht Gebruikershandleiding

Invoering

This manual provides detailed instructions for the operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of your CYCLAMI RT01 Bike Tail Light Radar. This device is designed to enhance cycling safety by providing rear radar monitoring and a high-visibility taillight.

Belangrijkste kenmerken zijn:

• Dual Recognition: The radar system intelligently distinguishes between approaching vehicles and stationary objects, emitting a warning light only when a high-speed vehicle is detected.
• Rear Radar Monitor: Alerts the rider to vehicles approaching from behind, improving situational awareness.
• Geavanceerde veiligheid: Features a 54° radar angle for detection even on curves and utilizes millimeter-wave pulse signals for accurate detection of fast-moving vehicles and slow cyclists.
• Long Lasting Battery: Offers up to 36 hours of battery life with a USB-C charging port. Includes automatic brightness reduction and sleep/wake functions for power efficiency.
• Waterdicht ontwerp: IP64 weatherproof rating ensures durability in various conditions.

Instellen

1. Uitpakken en eerste inspectie

Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Verify that the package contains the CYCLAMI RT01 unit, mounting bracket(s), and a USB-C charging cable. Inspect the device for any visible damage.

2. Het apparaat opladen

Before first use, fully charge the device. Connect the provided USB-C cable to the charging port on the device and plug the other end into a standard USB power adapter (not included). The charging indicator light will show the charging status. A full charge can provide up to 36 hours of operation depending on the mode used.

3. Het achterlicht monteren

The CYCLAMI RT01 offers versatile mounting options. It can be attached to the seatpost or saddle rails using the provided brackets. Ensure the device is securely fastened and positioned to provide an unobstructed view for the radar and maximum visibility for the taillight.

For optimal radar performance, ensure the radar emitter (the central rectangular area) is not obstructed and is pointing directly backward.

Gebruiksaanwijzing

1. Aan/uit

The device features independent control buttons for the regular light and radar functions.

• Regular Light Button: Click to turn on the regular light. Click again within 5 seconds to cycle through 7 available light modes. Long press to force power off.
• Radar Mode Button: Click to turn on the radar function. The radar mode light will illuminate blue. Click again within 5 seconds to cycle through 3 available radar light modes. Long press to force power off.

The device supports independent control of the normal light and radar, or combined operation, allowing adaptation to different riding environments.

2. Light Modes and Customization

The CYCLAMI RT01 offers various lighting modes for visibility and power saving. The radar mode can be used independently or in conjunction with regular lights.

Radar mode allows selection of three burst flashing methods: Maximum brightness, Breathing light, or High-frequency flashing. The mode selected by the radar will override other light settings when an approaching vehicle is detected.

3. Radarfunctionaliteit

The integrated radar system detects approaching vehicles from behind, providing visual alerts to the rider. The system is designed to differentiate between vehicles and other objects to minimize false alarms.

• Voertuigdetectie: The radar can detect vehicles up to 500 meters away.
• Waarschuwingslicht: When a high-speed vehicle is recognized, the taillight emits a warning light until the vehicle passes.
• Intelligente herkenning: Targets traveling at the same speed or away from the vehicle will not trigger the radar. The system focuses on rapidly approaching threats.

Onderhoud

1. Schoonmaken

Veeg het apparaat af met een zachte, damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the plastic housing or lens. Ensure the radar emitter area is kept clean for optimal performance.

2. Batterijverzorging

To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Recharge the device regularly, especially if it has been stored for an extended period. Store the device in a cool, dry place when not in use.

3. Waterdichting

The device has an IP64 waterproof rating, meaning it is protected from dust and splashing water from any direction. While it can withstand rain, avoid submerging the device in water.

Probleemoplossing

1. Apparaat gaat niet aan

• Zorg ervoor dat het apparaat volledig is opgeladen. Sluit het aan op een stroombron en laat het minstens 30 minuten opladen voordat u het opnieuw probeert in te schakelen.
• Verify that the power button is being pressed correctly (long press for force power off, single click for on/mode change).

2. Korte batterijduur

• Battery life varies significantly with the selected light mode. Brighter or constantly active modes consume more power. Try using a lower brightness or a less frequent flashing mode for extended battery life.
• Ensure the device is fully charged before each ride.
• Over time, rechargeable batteries naturally degrade. If battery life significantly diminishes despite proper charging and usage, the battery may be nearing the end of its lifespan.

3. Radar Not Detecting Vehicles or False Alarms

• Ensure the radar emitter area on the device is clean and free from obstructions (e.g., mud, dirt, clothing).
• Verify that the device is mounted correctly and is pointing directly backward without being angled too far up or down.
• The radar is designed to detect vehicles approaching at a higher relative speed. It may not alert for vehicles moving at the same speed or away from you.
• Certain environmental factors (e.g., heavy rain, dense fog, highly reflective surfaces) can affect radar performance.

4. Device Falls Off During Ride

• Ensure the mounting bracket is securely fastened to the seatpost or saddle rails.
• Verify that the device is properly clicked into the mounting bracket. A distinct click should be heard when attaching.
• Regularly check the tightness of the mounting screws or straps, especially after riding on rough terrain.
