The most important points for you to do

1. Even if you have ridden a bicycle for years, it is important for every person to read the general "Bike Owner's manual" and the specific "Electric Bicycle Owner's manual" carefully before you ride on the new e-bicycle.

2. Both manuals contains detailed information and useful suggestions about your new bicycle.

3. Make sure that you understand the proper use, maintenance, and disposal of the components of the electrical system of your new e-bicycle.

4. Think about safety. Your safety and that of other road users is very important.

5. Do not ride the electric bike without the battery pack. The battery pack must be on the bike while riding, else the bike has no lights when needed.

6. Do not misuse the electric bike by riding it without a saddle. Some bikes have a quick release on the seat post. If the saddle gets stolen, it may lead to hazardous situations when still riding on the electric bike without a saddle.
7. Check your bike for normal operation, loose parts and defects before riding. If you find any problem, visit your bike dealer for repairs before riding.
8. Be aware that other road users do not expect that an electric bike can ride faster than a normal bike. Riding faster also increases the risk of accidents.

- Do not ride abusively. Only ride in the use conditions specified for your bike. Condition 1 (paved roads with tires staying on the ground) is valid for electric City/Trekking bikes, condition 3 (rougher surfaces, tires momentarily NOT on the ground) is valid for electric Mountain bikes. Please refer to the general Bicycle Owner's manual for more detailed information.

- Do not over load the rear rack. The maximum allowable weight for the rear rack on electric bikes is 20 kg for bikes with a rear rack battery pack and 25 kg for bikes with a down tube battery. On bicycles with a luggage rack at both sides of the rear fender only, without a top deck, the maximum allowed load on the rack is 15 kg in total.

1. The electric system of your new bicycle needs special attention.

- Do not clean your electric bicycle with a high pressure washer. Any electric system is sensitive for moisture. High pressure water might ingress in connectors or other parts of the electric system.

- Handle your battery pack with care. Do not drop or impact the battery pack. Mishandling of the battery pack could lead to severe damage or over-heating. In an extremely rare case, a battery pack that has been severely impacted or otherwise mishandled could potentially catch fire. If you suspect damage to your battery pack, visit your dealer immediately for inspection.

1. Maintain the battery pack as instructed in this Electric Bicycle Owner's manual.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in damage to your battery pack and may require battery pack replacement:

• Only charge the battery pack with the included Bosch charger.
• When not using the battery pack for a longer period, charge it to approx. 60 % (3 to 4 LEDs lit on the charge-control indicator). Check the charge condition after 6 months. When only one LED of the charge-control indicator lights up, recharge the battery pack again to approx. 60 %.

- It is not recommended to have the battery pack connected permanently to the charger.

- When the battery pack is stored discharged (empty) for longer periods, it can become damaged despite the low selfdischarging and the battery-pack capacity may be strongly reduced.

- Store the battery pack in a dry, well-ventilated location. Protect the battery pack against moisture and water.

- Under unfavorable weather conditions, it is recommended e.g. to remove the battery pack from the bike and store it in an enclosed location until being used again.

- Store the battery packs in the following locations: in a room with a smoke alarm, away from combustible or easily flammable objects and away from heat sources.

- The battery pack can be stored at temperatures between -10^ and +60^ . For a long battery pack life, however, storing the battery pack at room temperature of approx. 20^ is of advantage.

• Take care that the maximal storage temperature is not exceeded. As an example, do not leave the battery pack in a vehicle in summer and store it out of direct sunlight.
• It is recommended to not store the battery pack on the bike.

5. Be careful when transporting an electric bicycle.

• An e-bike is heavier than a normal bike. If transporting on a vehicle, be aware of the maximum load capacity of the vehicle's roof, towing hook and/or of the applied bike carrier. Refer to the manual of the vehicle and bike carrier for details.
• Remove the controller, battery pack and, if present, panniers from the bicycle and store them elsewhere in the vehicle during the drive.
• Always respect local laws about transportation of a(n electric) bicycle.
• Because Li-Ion battery packs of this size and power are considered 'Dangerous goods, class 9' when transporting, regulations may restrict the transport of separate Li-Ion batteries in some places. The restrictions apply to most airlines and some trucking companies. But, if you intend to ship or travel with your complete e-bike (with installed battery pack), the regulations are less strict. Make sure to check ahead with your airline or carrier, before booking your trip, if it is allowed to travel with your complete e-bike.

6. Mounting accessories on an e-bike.

An electric bike has hidden wiring through frame and has other critical e-bike parts like the drive unit and battery pack. When mounting accessories (e.g. a bottle cage), be sure not to impact the wiring or battery pack, e.g. by using too long or pointed bolts. This might cause a short circuit to the electric system and/or damage to the battery.

WARNING. A short circuit in the electric system and/or damage to the battery might lead to over-heating. In an extremely rare case, a battery pack that has been severely impacted could potentially catch fire.

7. Visit your dealer on a regular basis for maintenance of your new e-bike.

• To guarantee the safe and proper functioning of the bike, the bike must be maintained on a regular basis, at least once a year, by an authorized electric bicycle dealer.
• Your dealer has the right knowledge and equipment to maintain your e-bike and to mount accessories safely.
• If you have questions about your new electric bicycle, ask your dealer!

Compliance

Your bicycle has been designed, tested, and produced in accordance with the applicable European Directives and Harmonised Standards. Therefore, all electric bicycles are in compliance with CE. For more detailed compliance information, please refer to the Declaration of Conformity (DoC) which was included along with your bicycle. If you have misplaced your DoC, a new one can be furnished upon request, by the bicycle shop at which you purchased your electric bicycle.

Limited warranty

Your bicycle is covered by a Lifetime Limited Warranty. Please visit our web site for details.

Operation

Prerequisites

The eBike system can only be activated when the following requirements are met:

• A sufficiently charged battery is inserted (see battery operating instructions).
• The speed sensor is connected properly (see drive unit operating instructions).

Operating unit power supply

If a sufficiently charged eBike battery is inserted into the eBike and the eBike system is switched on, then the operating unit battery is powered and charged by the eBike battery.

If the state of charge of the internal battery is very low, you can charge the internal battery via the diagnostics connection (7) with a USB Type C® cable using a power bank or another suitable power source (charging voltage 5 V; charging current max. 600 mA).

Always close the flap of the diagnostics connection (7) so that no dust or moisture can enter.

Switching the eBike system on/off

To switch on the eBike system, briefly press the on/off button (1). After the starting animation, the state of charge of the battery is displayed in colour with the battery charge indicator (3) and the set assistance level with the (5) display. The eBike is ready to ride.

The display brightness is controlled by the ambient light sensor (12). Therefore, do not cover the ambient light sensor (12).

The drive is activated as soon as you start pedalling (except at assistance level OFF). The motor output depends on the settings of the assistance level.

As soon as you stop pedalling when in normal operation, or as soon as you have reached a speed of 25/45 km/h, the eBike drive switches off the assistance. The drive is automatically reactivated as soon you start pedalling again and the speed is below 25/45 km/h.

To switch off the eBike system, press the on/off button (1) briefly (< 3 s). The battery charge indicator (3) and the assistance level LED (5) go out.

If no power is drawn from the eBike drive for about 10 minutes (e.g. because the eBike is not moving) and no button is pressed on the on-board computer or the control unit of the eBike, the eBike system will switch off automatically.

Battery charge indicator

The battery charge indicator (3) displays the eBike battery's state of charge. The state of charge of the eBike battery can also be checked on the LEDs of the battery itself.

In the (3) display, each ice-blue bar represents 20% capacity and each white bar represents 10% capacity. The topmost bar shows the maximum capacity.

Example: Four ice-blue bars and one white bar are displayed. The state of charge is between 81 % and 90 %. If capacity is low, both of the lower displays change colour:

Bar Capacity

2 × orange 30 % to 21 %
1 × orange 20 % to 11 %
1 × red 10 % to reserve
1 × red flashing Reserve to empty

If the eBike battery is being charged, the topmost bar on the battery charge indicator (3) flashes.

Setting the assistance level

You can set how much the eBike drive assists you while pedalling on the operating unit using the (8) and (9) buttons. The assistance level can be changed at any time, even while cycling, and is displayed in colour.

Level Notes

OFF	Motor support is switched off. The eBike can just be moved by pedalling, as with a normal bicycle.
ECO	Effective support with maximum efficiency, for maximum range
TOUR	Steady support, long range for touring
TOUR+	Dynamic assistance for natural, sporty cycling
eMTB/SPORT	Optimal support whatever the terrain, rapid acceleration when starting from a standstill, improved dynamics and top performance
TURBO	Maximum support even at a high cadence, for sport cycling
AUTO	The support is dynamically adapted to the riding situation.
RACE	Maximum support on the eMTB racetrack; very direct response and maximum “Extended Boost” for the best possible performance in competitive situations
CARGOA)	Steady, powerful support, so as to be able to safely transport heavy weights

A) The CARGO assistance level can have an additional description. The designations and configuration of the assistance levels can be preconfigured by the manufacturer and selected by the bicycle retailer.

Adapting the Assistance Level

The assistance level can be adapted within certain limits using the eBike Flow app. This gives you the option of adjusting your eBike to your personal requirements.

It is not possible to create a completely new mode. You can only adjust the modes that have been enabled by the manufacturer or dealer on your system. This may be fewer than 4 modes.

Due to technical limitations, you cannot adjust the eMTB and TOUR+ modes. In addition, restrictions in your country may mean that it is not possible to adjust a particular mode. The following parameters are available for making adjustments:

– Assistance in relation to the base value of the mode (within the legal requirements)

- Drive response

- Top limit speed (within the legal requirements)

- Maximum torque (within the limits of the drive)

The parameters are dependent on each other and influence each other. For example, it is not fundamentally possible to simultaneously set a low torque value and high assistance.

Note: Please ensure that your modified mode retains the position, name and colour on all on-board computers and controls.

Interaction between the eBike system and gear-shifting

The gear shifting should be used with an eBike drive in the same way as with a normal bicycle (observe the operating instructions of your eBike on this point).

Irrespective of the type of gear shifting, it is advisable that you briefly reduce the pressure on the pedals when changing gear. This will aid gear shifting and reduce wear on the powertrain.

By selecting the correct gear, you can increase your speed and range while applying the same amount of force.

Switching bike lights on/off

Check that your bike lights are working correctly before every use.

To switch on the bike lights, press the (9) button for more than 1 s.

You can use the (11) and (10) buttons to control the brightness of the LEDs on the operating unit.

Switching the push assistance on/off

The walk assistance makes it easier to push your eBike. The speed in this function depends on the selected gear and can reach a maximum of 4 km/h.

The push assistance function must only be used when pushing the eBike. There is a risk of injury if the wheels of the eBike are not in contact with the ground while using the push assistance.

To start walk assistance, press the (8) button for more than 1 s and keep it pressed. The battery charge indicator (3) goes out and a white moving light in the direction of travel shows that it is ready.

To activate walk assistance, one of the following actions must occur within the next 10 s:

- Push the eBike forwards.

- Push the eBike backwards.

- Perform a sideways tilting movement with the eBike.

After activation, the motor begins to push and the continuously filling white bars change colour to ice-blue.

If you release the (8) button, walk assistance is stopped. You can reactivate walk assistance within 10 s by pressing the (8) button.

If you do not reactivate walk assistance within 10 s, walk assistance automatically switches off.

Walk assistance is always ended if:

• the rear wheel jams,
  – the bicycle cannot move over ridges,
• a body part is blocking the bike crank,
  – an obstacle continues to turn the crank,
• you start pedalling,
• the (9) button or on/off button (1) is pressed.

Walk assistance has a roll-away lock, i.e. even after walk assistance has been used, rolling backwards is actively curbed by the drive system for a few seconds, and you cannot push the eBike backwards or can only do so with difficulty.

The push assistance function is subject to local regulations; the way it works may therefore differ from the description above, or the function may even be deactivated completely.

ABS - anti-lock braking system (optional)

If the bicycle is equipped with a Bosch eBike ABS, the ABS LED (4) lights up when the eBike system starts.

After moving off, the ABS internally checks its functionality and the ABS LED goes off.

In the event of a fault, the ABS LED (4) lights up, together with the orange flashing assistance level LED (5). You can acknowledge the error with the select button (2); the flashing assistance level LED (5) goes out. While the ABS LED (4) is lit up, the ABS is not in operation.

For details on the ABS and how it works, please refer to the ABS operating instructions.

Establishing a smartphone connection

In order to be able to use the following eBike functions, a smartphone with the eBike Flow app is required.

Connection to the app occurs via a Bluetooth ^® connection.

Switch on the eBike system and do not start riding the eBike. Begin Bluetooth® pairing by pressing and holding (> 3 s) the on/off button (1). Release the on/off button (1) as soon as the topmost bar on the battery charge indicator shows the pairing process by flashing blue.

The drive is activated as soon as you start pedalling (except at assistance level OFF). The motor output depends on the settings of the assistance level.

As soon as you stop pedalling when in normal operation, or as soon as you have reached a speed of 25/45 km/h, the eBike drive switches off the assistance. The drive is automatically reactivated as soon you start pedalling again and the speed is below 25/45 km/h.

To switch off the eBike system, press the on/off button (12) briefly (< 3 s). The battery charge indicator (13) and the assistance level LED (10) go out.

If no power is drawn from the eBike drive for about 10 minutes (e.g. because the eBike is not moving) and no button is pressed on the on-board computer or the control unit of the eBike, the eBike system will switch off automatically.

Battery charge indicator

The battery charge indicator (13) displays the eBike battery's state of charge. The state of charge of the eBike battery can also be checked on the LEDs of the battery itself.

In the (13) display, each ice-blue bar represents 20% capacity and each white bar represents 10% capacity. The topmost bar shows the maximum capacity.

Example: Four ice-blue bars and one white bar are displayed. The state of charge is between 81 % and 90 %. If capacity is low, both of the lower displays change colour:

Bar Capacity

2 × orange 30 % to 21 %
1 × orange 20 % to 11 %
1 × red 10 % to reserve
1 × red flashing Reserve to empty

If the eBike battery is being charged, the topmost bar on the battery charge indicator (13) flashes.

Setting the assistance level

On the operating unit, you can set the level of assistance you want the eBike drive to provide you with while pedalling.

Mini Remote: Briefly press (< 1 s) the buttons to increase assistance + (4) or decrease assistance - (6) in order to increase or decrease the assistance level accordingly.

System Controller: Briefly press (< 1 s) the mode button (14) to increase assistance.

Press the mode button (14) for longer than 1 s to decrease the assistance.

The assistance level can be changed at any time, even while cycling, and is displayed in colour.

Level Notes

OFF	Motor support is switched off. The eBike can just be moved by pedalling, as with a normal bicycle.
ECO	Effective support with maximum efficiency, for maximum range
TOUR	Steady support, long range for touring
TOUR+	Dynamic assistance for natural, sporty cycling
eMTB/SPORT	Optimal support whatever the terrain, rapid acceleration when starting from a standstill, improved dynamics and top performance
TURBO	Maximum support even at a high cadence, for sport cycling
AUTO	The support is dynamically adapted to the riding situation.
RACE	Maximum support on the eMTB racetrack; very direct response and maximum “Extended Boost” for the best possible performance in competitive situations
CARGO ^A)	Steady, powerful support, so as to be able to safely transport heavy weights

A) The CARGO assistance level can have an additional description. The designations and configuration of the assistance levels can be preconfigured by the manufacturer and selected by the bicycle retailer.

Adapting the Assistance Level

The assistance level can be adapted within certain limits using the eBike Flow app. This gives you the option of adjusting your eBike to your personal requirements.

It is not possible to create a completely new mode. You can only adjust the modes that have been enabled by the manufacturer or dealer on your system. This may be fewer than 4 modes.

Due to technical limitations, you cannot adjust the eMTB and TOUR+ modes. In addition, restrictions in your country may mean that it is not possible to adjust a particular mode.

The following parameters are available for making adjustments:

– Assistance in relation to the base value of the mode (within the legal requirements)
- Drive response
- Top limit speed (within the legal requirements)
– Maximum torque (within the limits of the drive)

The parameters are dependent on each other and influence each other. For example, it is not fundamentally possible to simultaneously set a low torque value and high assistance.

Note: Please ensure that your modified mode retains the position, name and colour on all on-board computers and controls.

Interaction between the eBike system and gear-shifting

The gear shifting should be used with an eBike drive in the same way as with a normal bicycle (observe the operating instructions of your eBike on this point).

Irrespective of the type of gear shifting, it is advisable that you briefly reduce the pressure on the pedals when changing gear. This will aid gear shifting and reduce wear on the powertrain.

By selecting the correct gear, you can increase your speed and range while applying the same amount of force.

Switching bicycle lights on/off (Mini Remote only)

Check that your bike lights are working correctly before every use.

To switch the bicycle lights on and off, press the button to increase the assistance level/bicycle lights (4) for longer than 1 s.

ABS - anti-lock braking system (optional)

If the bicycle is equipped with a Bosch eBike ABS, the ABS LED (11) lights up when the eBike system starts.

After moving off, the ABS internally checks its functionality and the ABS LED (11) goes off.

In the event of a fault, the ABS LED (11) lights up, together with the orange flashing assistance level LED (10). You can acknowledge the fault using the select button (5) on the Mini Remote (1) operating unit or with the mode button (14) on the System Controller (2) operating unit. The flashing assistance level LED (10) goes out. While the ABS LED (11) is lit up, the ABS is not in operation.

For details on the ABS and how it works, please refer to the ABS operating instructions.

Switching the push-assistance function on/off

The walk assistance makes it easier to push your eBike. The speed in this function depends on the selected gear and can reach a maximum of 4 km/h.

The push assistance function must only be used when pushing the eBike. There is a risk of injury if the wheels of the eBike are not in contact with the ground while using the push assistance.

To start walk assistance, press the (6) button for more than 1 s and keep it pressed. The battery charge indicator (13) goes out and a white moving light in the direction of travel shows that it is ready.

To activate walk assistance, one of the following actions must occur within the next 10 s:

- Push the eBike forwards.

- Push the eBike backwards.

- Perform a sideways tilting movement with the eBike.

After activation, the motor begins to push and the continuously filling white bars change colour to ice-blue.

If you release the (6) button, walk assistance is stopped. You can reactivate walk assistance within 10 s by pressing the (6) button.

If you do not reactivate walk assistance within 10 s, walk assistance automatically switches off.

Walk assistance is always ended if:

• the rear wheel jams,
  – the bicycle cannot move over ridges,
• a body part is blocking the bike crank,
• an obstacle continues to turn the crank,
• you start pedalling,
• the (4) button or on/off button (12) is pressed.

Walk assistance has a roll-away lock, i.e. even after walk assistance has been used, rolling backwards is actively curbed by the drive system for a few seconds, and you cannot push the eBike backwards or can only do so with difficulty.

The push assistance function is subject to local regulations; the way it works may therefore differ from the description above, or the function may even be deactivated completely.

Safety instructions

Read all the safety information and instructions. Failure to observe the safety information and follow instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all safety warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term battery is used in these instructions to mean all original Bosch eBike rechargeable battery packs.

Read and observe the safety warnings and directions contained in all the eBike system operating instructions and in the operating instructions of your eBike.
- Do not attempt to change – and especially increase – the power of your drive or the maximum speed that it supports. Doing this may put yourself and others at risk, and you may also breach statutory regulations.
Do not make any modifications to your eBike system or fit any other products that might increase the performance of your eBike system. Doing so will generally reduce the service life of the system and risks damaging the drive unit and the bike. You also run the risk of losing the guarantee and warranty claims on the bicycle you have purchased. By handling the system improperly you are also endangering your safety and that of other road users, thus running the risk of high personal liability costs and possibly even criminal prosecution in the event of accidents that can be attributed to manipulation of the bicycle.
▶ Do not open the drive unit yourself. The drive unit must only be repaired by qualified personnel using only original spare parts. This will ensure that the safety of the drive unit is maintained. Unauthorised opening of the drive unit will render warranty claims null and void.
All components fitted to the drive unit and all other components of the eBike drive (e.g. chainring, chain-ring receptacle, pedals) must only be replaced with identical components or components that have been specifically approved by the manufacturer for your eBike. This will protect the drive unit from overloading and becoming damaged.
Remove the battery from the eBike before beginning work (e.g. inspection, repair, assembly, maintenance, work on the chain, etc.) on the eBike, transporting it with a car or aeroplane, or storing it. Unintentional activation of the eBike system poses a risk of injury.

On sections of the drive, temperatures > 60 °C may occur in extreme conditions, e.g. when carrying consistently high loads at low speed when riding up hills or transporting loads.

▶ After a ride, do not allow your unprotected hands or legs to come into contact with the housing of the drive unit. Under extreme conditions, such as continuously high torques at low travel speeds, or when riding up hills or carrying loads, the housing may reach a very high tem-

perature.

The temperature that the drive unit housing may reach is influenced by the following factors:

• Ambient temperature
• Ride profile (route/gradient)
• Ride duration
• Assistance modes
• User behaviour (personal effort)
• Total weight (rider, eBike, luggage)
• Motor cover on the drive unit
  – Heat dissipation properties of the bicycle frame
• Type of drive unit and type of gear-shifting

▶ Use only original Bosch batteries that the manufacturer has approved for your eBike. Using other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard. Bosch accepts no liability or warranty claims if other batteries are used.

Keep the magnet away from implants and other medical devices, e.g. pacemakers or insulin pumps. The magnet generates a field that can impair the function of implants and medical devices.

• Keep the magnet away from magnetic data carriers and magnetically sensitive devices. The effect of the magnets may lead to irreversible data losses.
  ▶ Observe all national regulations which set out the approved use of eBikes.

Privacy notice

When you connect the eBike to the Bosch DiagnosticTool 3, data about Bosch drive unit (e.g. energy consumption, temperature, etc.) is transferred to Bosch eBike Systems (Robert Bosch GmbH) for the purposes of product improvement.

Inserting a bulb incorrectly can cause it to blow.

Information on the noise emissions of the drive unit

Typically, the A-weighted noise emission level of the eBike system is < 70 dB(A). A key feature of the service is that the drive unit will emit an alarm tone in response to unauthorised movement of the eBike. This alarm tone can exceed a noise emission level of 70 dB(A) and measures 80 dB(A) at a 2 m distance from the drive unit. The alarm tone is only available once the service has been activated and can be deactivated via the app eBike Flow.

Assembly

Checking the speed sensor (see figure A)

Speedsensor (slim)

The speed sensor (2) and its CenterLock magnet (4) or spoke magnet (3) are mounted ex works in such a manner that the magnet, after a turn of the wheel, moves past the speed sensor with a clearance of at least 2 mm, yet no more than 15 mm.

If any structural changes are made, the correct distance between the magnet and the sensor must be complied with (see figure A).

Note: Make sure you do not damage the sensor or the sensor holder when fitting or removing the rear wheel.

When changing a wheel, make sure that the sensor cable is routed so that it is not under tension and has no kinks.

The CenterLock magnet (4) can only be removed and reinserted up to five times.

Rim magnet

When installing a rim magnet, no sensor is required to detect a wheel turn. The drive unit itself detects when the magnet is close to it and calculates the speed and any other data required from the frequency of the emergence of the magnet field.

Since the drive unit is sensitive to magnetic fields, avoid other magnetic fields in the vicinity of the drive unit (e.g. magnetic clipless pedals, magnetic cadence sensors, etc.) in order to prevent disruption to the drive unit.

Operation

A control unit is required for the starting operation of the eBike system. Observe the starting operation for the eBike system and drive unit control in the control unit operating instructions.

Notes on cycling with the eBike system

When does the eBike drive work?

The eBike drive assists your cycling only when you are pedalling. If you do not pedal, the assistance will not work. The motor output always depends on the pedalling force you apply.

If you apply less force, you will receive less assistance than if you apply a lot of force. This applies irrespective of the assistance level.

The eBike drive automatically switches off at speeds over 25 km/h. When the speed falls below 25 km/h, the drive automatically becomes available again.

An exception applies to the push assistance function, in which the eBike can be pushed at low speed without pedalling. The pedals may rotate when the push assistance is in use.

You can also use the eBike as a normal bicycle without assistance at any time, either by switching off the eBike system or by setting the assistance level to OFF. The same applies when the battery is drained.

Interaction between the eBike system and gear-shifting

The gear-shifting should be used with an eBike drive in the same way as with a normal bicycle (observe the operating instructions of your eBike on this point).

Irrespective of the type of gear-shifting, it is advisable to briefly stop pedalling when changing gear. This will facilitate the gear change and reduce wear on the powertrain.

By selecting the correct gear, you can increase your speed and range while applying the same amount of force.

Gaining initial experience

We recommend that you gain initial experience with the eBike away from busy roads.

Test the various assistance levels, beginning with the lowest level. As soon as you feel confident, you can ride your eBike in traffic like any other bicycle.

Test the range of your eBike in different conditions before planning longer and more demanding trips.

Influences on range

The range is affected by a number of factors, such as:

• Assistance level
• Speed
  – Gear shifting behaviour
  – Tyre type and tyre pressure
  – Age and condition of the battery
• Route profile (gradients) and conditions (road surface)
• Headwind and ambient temperature
• Weight of eBike, rider and luggage

For this reason, it is not possible to predict the range accurately before and during a trip. However, as a general rule:

- With the same assistance level on the eBike drive: The less energy you need to exert in order to reach a certain speed (e.g. by changing gears optimally), the less energy the eBike drive will consume and the higher the range per battery charge will be.

- The higher the selected assistance level under otherwise constant conditions, the smaller the range will be.

Taking care of your 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). Extreme temperatures can cause the components (especially the battery) to become damaged.

Have your eBike system checked by an expert at least once a year (including mechanical parts, up-to-dateness of system software).

Maintenance and servicing

Maintenance and cleaning

When changing the bulbs, ensure that they are compatible with the Bosch eBike system (ask your bicycle dealer) and are suitable for the specified voltage. Bulbs must only be replaced with bulbs of the same voltage.

Do not immerse any components, including the drive unit, in water or clean them with pressurised water.

Have your eBike system checked by an expert at least once a year (including mechanical parts, up-to-dateness of system software).

Please have your eBike serviced and repaired by an authorised bicycle dealer.

Fitting

▶ Ensure the battery is placed on clean surfaces only. Avoid getting dirt, e.g. sand or soil, in the charging socket and contacts in particular.

Testing the battery before using it for the first time

Test the battery before charging it for the first time or using it in your eBike.

To do this, press the on/off button (7) to switch the battery on. If none of the LEDs on the battery charge indicator (6) light up, the battery may be damaged.

If at least one (but not all) of the LEDs on the battery charge indicator (6) lights up, the battery will need to be fully charged before using it for the first time.

▶ Do not charge or use batteries if they are damaged. Contact an authorised bicycle dealer.

Charging the battery

▶ A Bosch eBike battery must only be charged using an original Bosch eBike charger.

Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full battery capacity, fully charge the battery in the charger before using it for the first time.

To charge the battery, read and follow the instructions in the operating manual for the charger.

The battery can be charged at any state of charge. Interrupting the charging process does not damage the battery.

The battery has a temperature monitoring function which only allows it to be charged within a temperature range of 0^ C to 40^ C.

If the temperature of the battery is outside this charging range, three of the LEDs on the battery charge indicator (6) will flash. Disconnect the battery from the charger and let it acclimatise.

Do not reconnect the battery to the charger until it has reached the correct charging temperature.

Battery charge indicator

The five LEDs on the battery charge indicator (6) indicate the battery's state of charge when the battery is switched on.

Each LED represents approximately 20% of the charging capacity. When the battery is fully charged, all five LEDs will be lit.

The battery's state of charge when switched on is also shown on the display of the on-board computer. Read and follow the instructions in the operating manuals for the drive unit and on-board computer.

If the battery capacity is less than 10%, the last remaining LED will flash.

If the battery capacity is less than 5%, all the LEDs on the battery charge indicator (6) on the battery will go out. The display function of the on-board computer, however, will carry on working.

Once charging is complete, disconnect the battery from the charger and the charger from the mains.

To remove the PowerPack battery (15), switch it off and open the lock (2) using the key (1).

Tilt the battery out of the upper holder (14) and pull it out of the lower holder (16).

Operation

Start-up

▶ Use only original Bosch batteries that the manufacturer has approved for your eBike. Using other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard. Bosch accepts no liability or warranty claims if other batteries are used.

Switching on/off

Switching on the battery is one way to switch on the eBike system. Read and follow the instructions in the operating manuals for the drive unit and on-board computer.

Before switching on the battery, i.e. the eBike system, make sure that the lock (2) is closed.

To switch on the battery, press the on/off button (7). Do not use any sharp or pointed objects to press the button. The LEDs on the indicator (6) will light up, indicating the battery's state of charge at the same time.

Note: If the battery capacity is less than 5 %, none of the LEDs on the battery charge indicator (6) will light up.

Whether the eBike system is switched on is only visible on the on-board computer/control unit.

To switch off the battery, press the on/off button (7) again. The LEDs on the indicator (6) will go out. This will also switch the eBike system off.

If no power is drawn from the eBike drive for about

10 minutes (e.g. because the eBike is not moving) and no button is pressed on the on-board computer or the control unit of the eBike, the eBike system will switch off automatically.

The battery is protected against deep discharge, overloading, overheating and short-circuiting by the "Battery Management System (BMS)". In the event of danger, a protective circuit switches the battery off automatically.

If a fault is detected in the battery, two of the LEDs on the battery charge indicator (6) will flash. Contact an authorised bicycle dealer if this happens.

Recommendations for optimal handling of the battery

The service life of the battery can be extended if it is looked after well and especially if it is stored at the correct temperature.

As it ages, however, the capacity of the battery will diminish, even with good care.

A significantly reduced operating time after charging indicates that the battery has deteriorated. The battery should be replaced.

Recharging the battery before and during storage

When you are not going to use the battery for an extended period (longer than three months), store it at a state of charge of around 30 % to 60 % (when two to three of the LEDs on the battery charge indicator (6) are lit).

Check the state of charge after six months. If only one of the LEDs on the battery charge indicator (6) is lit, charge the battery back up to around 30 % to 60 %.

Note: If the battery is stored with no charge for an extended period of time, it may become damaged despite the low self-discharge and the battery capacity could be significantly reduced.

Leaving the battery permanently connected to the charger is not recommended.

Storage conditions

If possible, store the battery in a dry, well-ventilated place. Protect it against moisture and water. When the weather conditions are bad, it is advisable to remove the battery from the eBike and store it in a closed room until you use it next, for example.

Store the eBike batteries in the following locations:

• In a room with a smoke alarm
  – Away from combustible or easily flammable objects
  – Away from heat sources

To ensure an optimum service life, store the eBike batteries at temperatures between 10 °C and 20 °C. Never store them at temperatures below -10 °C or above 60 °C.

Make sure that the maximum storage temperature is not exceeded. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer, for example, and store it away from direct sunlight.

Leaving the battery on the bicycle for storage is not recommended.

Action in the event of a fault

The Bosch eBike rechargeable battery must not be opened, including for repairs. There is a risk of the Bosch eBike rechargeable battery catching fire, e.g. as a result of a short circuit. This risk continues to apply on any Bosch eBike rechargeable battery ever opened, even at a later point in time.

In the event of a fault, do not have your Bosch eBike rechargeable battery repaired; instead, have it replaced with an original Bosch eBike rechargeable battery by your specialist retailer.

Maintenance and servicing

Maintenance and cleaning

The battery must not be submerged in water or cleaned using a jet of water.

Keep the battery clean and avoid contact with skincare products and insect repellant. Clean it carefully with a soft, damp cloth.

Clean and lightly grease the connector pins occasionally.

Please contact an authorised bicycle dealer if the battery is no longer working.

After-sales service and advice on using products

If you have any questions about the batteries, contact an authorised bicycle dealer.

▶ Note down the key manufacturer and number on the key (1). Contact an authorised bicycle dealer if you lose the key. Give them the name of the key manufacturer and the number on the key.

Transport

▶ If you transport your eBike attached to the outside of your car, e.g. on a bike rack, remove the on-board computer and the eBike battery to avoid damaging them.

The batteries are subject to legislation on the transport of dangerous goods. Private users can transport undamaged batteries by road without having to comply with additional requirements.

When batteries are transported by commercial users or third parties (e.g. air transport or forwarding agency), special requirements on packaging and labelling (e.g. ADR regulations) must be met. When preparing items for shipping, a dangerous goods expert can be consulted as required.

Do not ship batteries if the housing is damaged or the rechargeable battery is not fully functional. Use only the original Bosch packaging for transport. Apply tape over exposed contacts and pack the battery such that it cannot move around inside the packaging. Inform your parcel service that the package contains dangerous goods. Please also observe any additional national regulations should these exist.

If you have any questions about transporting the batteries, contact an authorised bicycle dealer. You can also order suitable transport packaging from the dealer.

Disposal

Batteries, accessories and packaging should be recycled in an environmentally friendly manner.

Do not dispose of batteries along with household waste.

Apply tape over the contact surfaces of the battery terminals before disposing of batteries.

Do not touch severely damaged eBike batteries with your bare hands – electrolyte may escape and cause skin irritation. Store the defective battery in a safe location outdoors.

Cover the terminals if necessary and inform your dealer.

They will help you to dispose of it properly.

In accordance with Directive 2012/19/EU and Directive 2006/66/EC respectively, electronic devices that are no longer usable and defective/drained batteries must be collected separately and recycled in an environmentally friendly manner.
