rearview radar to improve situational awareness. See
the owner’s manual for your Varia device for more
information.

The tempe is an ANT+ wireless temperature sensor.
You can attach the sensor to a secure strap or loop
where it is exposed to ambient air, and therefore,
provides a consistent source of accurate temperature
data. You must pair the tempe with your device to
display temperature data from the tempe.
