- Not possible via the eBike battery pack in all country-specific versions, depending on the statutory regulationsEnglish–3 0 276 001 SPI | (16.7.14) Bosch eBike Systems Operation Initial Operation Requirements The eBike system can only be activated when the following requirements are met: – A sufficiently charged battery pack is inserted (see battery pack operating instructions). – The on-board computer is properly inserted in the holder (see “Inserting and removing the on-board computer”, page English–2). – The speed sensor is connected properly (see “Checking the Speed Sensor”, page English–2). Switching the eBike System On/Off Options for switching on the eBike system: – If the on-board computer is already switched on when you insert it into the holder, then the eBike system will be switched on automatically. – When the on-board computer and the eBike battery pack are inserted, briefly press the On/Off button 5 of the on- board computer. – When the on-board computer is inserted, press the On/Off button of the eBike battery pack (see battery pack operat- ing instructions). The drive is activated as soon as you step on the pedals (except when in the push aid feature, see “Switching the Push/Start Aid On/Off”, page English–4). The motor output depends on the settings of the assistance level on the on- board computer. As soon as the system is activated, “Perfor- mance Line” will appear briefly on the display. As soon as you stop pedaling when in normal operation, or as soon as you have reached a speed of 25/45 km/h, the assis- tance from the eBike drive is switched off. The drive is auto- matically re-activated as soon you start pedaling again and the speed is below 25/45 km/h. Options for switching off the eBike system: – Press the On/Off button 5 of the on-board computer. – Switch the eBike battery pack off by its On/Off button (see battery pack operating instructions). – Remove the on-board computer out of its holder. If no power is drawn from the drive unit for about 10 minutes (e.g. because the eBike is not moving), the eBike system will shut down automatically to save energy. Displays and configurations of the on-board computer Energy supply of the on-board computer If the on-board computer is in the holder 4, a sufficiently charged battery pack is inserted in the eBike and the eBike system is turned on, then the on-board computer is powered by the battery pack of the eBike. If the on-board computer is removed from the holder 4, the energy is supplied via an internal battery pack. If the internal battery pack is weak when the on-board computer is switched on, “Attach to bike” will appear in text indication d for 3 s. The on-board computer will then turn off again. To charge the internal battery pack, put the on-board comput- er back in the holder 4 (when a battery pack is inserted in the eBike). Switch the eBike battery pack on by its On/Off button (see battery pack operating instructions). You can also charge the on-board computer via the USB port. Open the protective cap 8. Connect the USB port 7 of the on- board computer via a suitable USB cable to a standard USB charger or the USB port of a computer (5 V charging voltage, max. 500 mA charging current). “USB connected” will ap- pear in text indication d of the on-board computer. If you do not use your eBike for a prolonged period of time, remove the on-board computer from its holder. Store the on-board computer in a dry environment at room temperature. Regularly recharge the on-board computer’s battery pack. Switching on/shutting down the on-board computer To switch on the on-board computer, briefly press the On/Off button 5. The on-board computer can also be switched on when it is not inserted in the holder (if the internal battery pack is sufficiently charged). To switch off the on-board computer, press the On/Off button 5. If the on-board computer is not inserted in the holder, it automatically switches off after 1 minute to save energy if no button is pressed. Battery Charge-control Indicator The battery charge-control indicator i displays the charge level of the eBike battery pack, not that of the on-board computer’s internal battery pack. The charge level of the eBike battery pack can also be checked on the LEDs of the battery pack itself. On indicator i, each bar of the battery pack symbol is equiva- lent to a capacity of approx. 20 %: The LEDs of the charge-control indicator on the battery pack extinguish. The capacity for assisting the drive has been used up, and assistance is gently switched off. The remaining capacity is made available for the lighting and the on-board computer. The indicator flashes. The capacity of the eBike battery pack is enough for about 2 hours of lighting. This does not account for other consumers (e. g. automatic gearbox, charging external devices at the USB port). If the on-board computer is removed from the holder 4, the last displayed battery charge level is saved. The eBike battery pack is fully charged. The eBike battery pack should be recharged.English–4 Bosch eBike Systems 0 276 001 SPI | (16.7.14) Setting the Assistance Level On the operating unit 10 you can set how much the eBike drive assists you while pedalling. The assistance level can be changed at any time, even while cycling. Note: For individual versions, it is possible that the assistance level is pre-set and cannot be changed. It is also possible that less assistance levels are available for selection than listed here. The following assistance levels (max.) are available: – “OFF”: The motor assistance is switched off, the eBike can be operated as a normal bicycle through pedaling. – “ECO”: Effective assistance at maximum efficiency for maximum cruising range – “TOUR”: Uniform assistance, for touring with long cruising range – “SPORT”: Powerful assistance for sportive riding off road as well as for urban traffic – “TURBO”: Maximum assistance, supporting highest ca- dence for sportive riding To increase the assistance level, press the “+” 13 button on the operating unit until the desired assistance level appears in the display b. To decrease the assistance level, press the button“–” 12. The requested motor output is displayed in indicator a. The maximum motor output depends on the selected assistance level. When the on-board computer is removed from the holder 4, the last indicated assistance level is stored; the motor-output indicator a remains empty. Switching the Push/Start Aid On/Off With the speed version, the push aid can also be used as a start aid. The start aid is switched off at 18 km/h. The push/start aid can make it easier for you to push or start the eBike. The speed of this feature depends on the selected gear and depending on the model, can reach a maximum of 6 km/h or 18 km/h. The lower the selected gear, the lower the speed of this function (at full capacity). The push/start aid function may only be used when pushing or starting the eBike. If the wheels of the eBike have no contact with the ground when using the push aid, then there is risk of injury. To switch on the push/start aid, press and hold the “WALK” 14 button on the operating unit. The eBike drive is switched on. The push/start aid is switched off if one of the following occurs: –you release the “WALK” 14 button, – the wheels of the eBike are blocked (e.g. by actuating the brakes or impacting against an obstacle), – the speed exceeds 6/18 km/h. Switching bike lights on/off In the model in which the lighting is powered by the eBike sys- tem, the front and rear lights can be switched on and off at the same time via the on-board computer with button 2. When the lighting is switched on “Light on” appears and when the lighting is switched off “Light off” appears for ap- prox. 1 s in text indication d. The lighting symbol c is dis- played when the light is on. Switching the bike light on and off has no effect on the back lighting of the display. Version Speed: Daytime running lights are always provided in this option. When you switch on the eBike system (see “Switching the eBike System On/Off”, page English–3), the lights will also be switched on. The bike lights cannot be switched off with button 2. Speed and Distance Indication The speed indication f always displays the current speed. The following functions are available in the function indica- tion (combination of text indication d and value indication e): – “Clock”: Current time – “Max. Speed”: Maximum speed achieved since the last reset – “Avg. Speed”: Average speed achieved since the last reset – “Trip time”: Trip time since the last reset – “Range”: Estimated range of the available battery-pack charge (for constant conditions such as assistance level, route profile, etc.) – “odometer”: Display of the total distance travelled with the eBike (cannot be reset) – “Distance”: Distance covered since the last reset To switch between display functions, press button “i” 1 on the on-board computer or button “i” 11 on the operating unit repeatedly until the required function is displayed.

Code Cause Corrective MeasureEnglish–7 0 276 001 SPI | (16.7.14) Bosch eBike Systems Power Supply of External Devices via USB Connection With the USB connection, it is possible to operate and charge most devices whose power supply is possible via USB (e.g., various mobile phones). Prerequisite for charging is that the on-board computer and a sufficiently charged battery pack are inserted in the eBike. Open the protective cap 8 of the USB port on the on-board computer. Connect the USB connection of the external device to the USB port 7 on the on-board computer using a standard- compliant Micro A/Micro B USB 2.0 cable. Using a USB cable that is not standard-compliant or a cable/adapter combina- tion can lead to damage to the on-board computer. Notes on Riding with the eBike System When does the eBike Drive Unit Operate? The eBike drive unit assists you when riding, as long as you step into the pedals. Without pedaling, there is no assistance. The motor output always depends on the amount of your ped- aling power. When applying less pedaling power, the assistance or support will be lower than when applying a lot of pedaling power. This applies independent of the assistance Level. The eBike drive automatically switches off at speeds in excess of 25/45 km/h. When the speed falls below 25/45 km/h, the drive is automatically available again. An exception applies to the push-assistance function, in which the eBike can be pushed at low speed without pedal- ling. The pedals may also rotate when the push assistance is used. The eBike can also be ridden as a normal bicycle without as- sistance at any time, by either switching off the eBike system or setting the assistance level to “OFF”. The same applies when the battery pack is empty. Interaction of the eBike System with the Bicycle Gears The bicycle gears should be used as with a normal bicycle, even with eBike motor assistance (please observe the operat- ing instructions of your eBike). Independent of the type of gearing, it is recommended to briefly interrupt the pedaling while changing gears. This makes changing gears easier and reduces the wear of the drive train. By selecting the right gear, you can increase the speed and range with the same pedaling effort. For this reason, follow the shift recommendations provided by indications g and h on your display. If indication g is dis- played, you should shift to a higher gear with lower cadence. If indication h is displayed, you should select a lower gear with higher cadence. Gathering First Experience It is recommended to gather first experience with the eBike away from roads with heavy traffic. Try out the different assistance levels. As soon as you feel safe, you can participate in traffic with the eBike as with any other bicycle. Test the operating range of your eBike under different condi- tions before planning longer and more challenging rides. Influences on the Operating Range The operating range depends on many factors, such as: – Assistance level, – Gear-switching behaviour, – Bicycle tyres and tyre pressure, – Age and condition of the battery pack, – Route profile (inclines) and road or path conditions (road or path surface), – Head wind and ambient temperature, – Weight of the eBike, rider and equipment/luggage. For this reason, it is not possible to precisely predict the range before commencing a trip. General rules: –For the same motor output of the eBike drive unit: The less power or force that you have to bring about to reach a cer- tain speed (e.g. through optimal use of the gears), the less energy the eBike drive unit will consume, and the greater the range for a battery-pack charge. –The higher the assistance level under otherwise same con- ditions, the lower the range. Careful Handling of the eBike Please observe the operating and storage temperatures of the eBike components. Protect the drive unit, on-board computer and battery against extreme temperatures (e.g. from intense sunlight without adequate ventilation). The components (es- pecially the battery pack) can become damaged through ex- treme temperatures.

Failure to follow the warnings and in- structions may result in elec- tric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all safety warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “battery pack” used in these operating instructions refers both to standard battery packs (battery packs with holder on the bike frame) and to rack-type battery packs (battery packs with holder in the rear rack/carrier), except when explicitly referring to the design type. Remove the battery pack from the eBike before begin- ning work (e.g. inspection, repair, assembly, mainte- nance, work on the chain, etc.) on the eBike, transport- ing it by car or plane, or storing it. Unintentional activation of the eBike system poses a risk of injury. Do not open the battery pack. Danger of short-circuiting. Opening the battery pack voids any and all warranty claims. Protect the battery pack against heat (e.g., also against continuous intense sunlight), fire and immersing into water. Danger of explosion. Keep the battery pack not being used away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery-pack terminals together may cause burns or a fire. For short-circuiting damage caused in this manner, any and all warranty claims through Bosch shall be invalid. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery pack. Avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addi- tionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the bat- tery pack may cause skin irritations or burns. Battery packs must not be subjected to mechanical im- pacts. There is a risk that the battery pack will be damaged causing vapors to escape. The vapors can irritate the res- piratory system. Provide for fresh air and seek medical at- tention in case of complaints. Vapours can escape in case of damage and improper use of the battery pack. Provide for fresh air and seek medical attention in case of complaints. The vapours can irritate the respiratory system. Charge the battery pack only with original Bosch bat- tery chargers. When using non-original Bosch chargers, the danger of fire cannot be excluded. Use the battery pack only together with eBikes that have an original Bosch eBike drive system. This is the only way to protect the battery pack against dangerous overload. Use only original Bosch battery packs approved for your eBike by the manufacturer. Using other battery packs can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard. When us- ing other battery packs, Bosch shall not assume any liabil- ity and warranty.

Checking the Battery Pack Before Using for the First Time Check the battery pack before charging it or using it with your eBike for the first time. For this, press the On/Off button A4 to switch on the battery pack. When no LED of the charge-control indicator A3 lights up, the battery pack may be damaged. When at least one, but not all LEDs of the charge-control indi- cator A3 is lit, then fully charge the battery pack before using for the first time. Do not attempt to charge or use a damaged battery pack. Please refer to an authorised Bosch eBike dealer. Charging the Battery Pack Use only the Bosch charger provided with your eBike or an identical original Bosch charger. Only this charger is matched to the lithium-ion battery pack used in your eBike. Note: The battery pack is supplied partially charged. To en- sure full battery pack capacity, completely charge the battery pack in the charger before using for the first time. For charging the battery pack, read and observe the operating instructions of the charger. The battery pack can be recharged at any time on its own or on the bike without shortening the lifespan. Interrupting the charging process does not damage the battery pack. The battery pack is equipped with a temperature control indi- cator, which enables charging only within a temperature range between 0 °C and 40 °C. When the battery pack is not within the charging-tempera- ture range, three LEDs of the charge-control indicator A3 flash. Disconnect the battery pack from the charger until its temperature has adjusted. Do not connect the battery pack to the charger until it has reached the allowable charging temperature. Charge-control Indicator When the battery pack is switched on, the five green LEDs of the charge-control indicator A3 indicate the charge condition of the battery pack. In this, each LED indicates approx. 20 % capacity. When the battery pack is completely charged, all five LEDs light up. The charge level of the switched on battery pack is also shown on the display of the on-board computer. When doing so, read and observe the operating instructions of the drive unit and on-board computer. If the capacity of the battery pack is below 5 %, all LEDs of the charge-control indicator A3 on the battery pack go out. Howev- er there is another display function of the on-board computer.

In order for the battery pack to be inserted, the key A5 must be inserted into the lock A6 and the lock must be unlocked. To insert the standard battery pack A8, place it with the contacts on the lower holder A9 on the eBike (the battery pack can be inclined up to 7° to the frame). Tilt it into the up- per holder A7 until it engages. To insert the rack-type battery pack A2, slide it with the contacts facing ahead until it engages in the holder A1 of the rear rack/carrier. Check if the battery pack is tightly seated. Always lock the battery pack with lock A6, as otherwise the lock can open and the battery pack could fall out of the holder. After locking, always remove the key A5 from the lock A6. This prevents the key from falling out and the battery pack from being removed from unauthorised persons when the eBike is parked. To remove the standard battery pack A8, switch it off and unlock the lock with the key A5. Tilt the battery pack out of the upper holder A7and pull it out of the lower holder A9. To remove the rack-type battery pack A2, switch it off and unlock the lock with the key A5. Pull the battery pack out of the holder A1. Operation Initial Operation Use only original Bosch battery packs approved for your eBike by the manufacturer. Using other battery packs can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard. When us- ing other battery packs, Bosch shall not assume any liabil- ity and warranty. Switching On and Off Switching on the battery pack is one of the ways of switching on the eBike system. When doing so, read and observe the operat- ing instructions of the drive unit and on-board computer. Before switching on the battery pack or the eBike system, check that the lock A6 is locked. To switch on the battery pack, press the On/Off button A4. The LEDs of indicator A3 light up and at the same time indi- cate the charge condition. Note: If the capacity of the battery pack is below 5 %, no LED on the charge-control indicator A3 lights up. It is only visible on the on-board computer, if the eBike system is switched on. To switch off the battery pack, press the On/Off button A4 again. The LEDs of indicator A3 go out. This also switches off the eBike system. If no power is drawn from the eBike drive for about 10 min- utes (e.g. because the eBike is not moving) and no button is pressed on the on-board computer or the operating unit of the eBike, the eBike system and therefore also the battery pack will shut down automatically to save energy. The battery pack is protected against deep discharging, over- charging, overheating and short-circuiting through the “Elec- tronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. In case of hazardous situations, a protective circuit automatically switches off the battery pack. When a defect of the battery pack is detected, two LEDs of the charge-control indicator A3 flash. In this case, please refer to an authorised Bosch eBike dealer. Notes for Optimum Handling of the Battery Pack The battery-pack life can be prolonged when being properly maintained and especially when being operated and stored at the right temperatures. With increasing age, however, the battery-pack capacity will diminish, even when properly maintained. A significantly reduced operating period after charging indi- cates that the battery pack is worn out and must be replaced. You can replace the battery pack yourself. Recharging the Battery Pack prior to and during Storage When not using the battery pack for a longer period, charge it to approx. 60 % (3 to 4 LEDs lit on the charge-control indica- tor A3). Check the charge condition after 6 months. When only one LED of the charge-control indicator A3 lights up, recharge the battery pack again approx. 60 %. Note: When the battery pack is stored discharged (empty) for longer periods, it can become damaged despite the low self- discharging feature and the battery-pack capacity may be strongly reduced. It is not recommended to have the battery pack connected permanently to the charger. Storage Conditions Store the battery pack in a dry, well-ventilated location. Pro- tect the battery pack against moisture and water. Under unfa- vourable weather conditions, it is recommended e.g. to re- move the battery pack from the eBike and store it in an enclosed location until being used again. The battery pack can be stored at temperatures between –10 °C and +60 °C. For a long battery-pack life, however, storing the battery pack at a room temperature of approx. 20 °C is of advantage. Take care that the maximal storage temperature is not ex- ceeded. As an example, do not leave the battery pack in a ve- hicle in summer and store it out of direct sunlight. It is recommended to not store the battery pack on the bike.English–12 Bosch eBike Systems 0 276 001 SPI | (16.7.14) Maintenance and Service Maintenance and Cleaning Keep the battery pack clean.

Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in elec- tric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all safety warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “battery pack” used in these operating instructions refers both to standard battery packs (battery packs with holder on the bike frame) and to rack-type battery packs (battery packs with holder in the rear rack/carrier). Keep the charger away from rain or moisture. The penetration of water into a battery charger increases the risk of an electric shock. Only charge eBike-approved Bosch lithium-ion battery packs. The battery-pack voltage must match the bat- tery-pack charging voltage of the charger. Otherwise there is danger of fire and explosion. Keep the battery charger clean. Contamination can lead to danger of an electric shock. Before each use, check the battery charger, cable and plug. If damage is detected, do not use the battery charg- er. Never open the battery charger yourself. Have re- pairs performed only by a qualified technician and only using original spare parts. Damaged battery chargers, ca- bles and plugs increase the risk of an electric shock. Do not operate the battery charger on easily inflamma- ble surfaces (e. g., paper, textiles, etc.) or surround- ings. The heating of the battery charger during the charg- ing process can pose a fire hazard. Vapours can escape in case of damage and improper use of the battery pack. Provide for fresh air and seek medical attention in case of complaints. The vapours can irritate the respiratory system. Supervise children. This will ensure that children do not play with the charger. Children or persons that owing to their physical, sensory or mental limitations or to their lack of experience or knowledge, are not capable of securely operating the charger, may only use this charger under supervision or after having been instructed by a responsible person. Otherwise, there is danger of operating errors and injuries. Please read and observe the safety warnings and in- structions enclosed in the operating instructions of the battery pack and drive unit/cycle computer as well as in the operating instructions of your eBike.
