en SAFETY NOTES
DRIVE UNIT
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.
• 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, chainring 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.
• The eBike system can be activated by pushing the eBike backwards or by turning the pedals backwards.
• 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.
• When the push assistance is activated, the pedals may turn at the same time. When the push assistance function is activated,
make sure that there is enough space between your legs and the turning pedals to avoid the risk of injury.
• After a ride, do not allow your unprotected hands or legs to come into contact with the aluminium 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, very
high temperatures may be reached on the aluminium housing. The temperatures that may be reached at the drive unit housing
are 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.
• 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 impro-
perly 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.
• Observe all national regulations which set out the approved use of eBikes.
BATTERY
• 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.
• Do not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuiting. Opening the battery voids any and all warranty claims.
• Protect the battery against heat (e.g. prolonged sun exposure), fire and from being submerged in water. Do not store or ope-
rate the battery near hot or flammable objects. There is a risk of explosion.
• When the battery is not in use, keep it away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that could
make a connection from one terminal to another. A short circuit between the battery terminals may cause burns or a fire. Short
circuit damage which occurs in this instance voids any and all warranty claims against Bosch.
• Avoid mechanical loads and exposure to high temperatures. These can damage the battery cells and cause the flammable
contents to leak out.
• Do not place the charger or the battery near flammable materials. Ensure the battery is completely dry and placed on a fire-
proof surface before charging. There is a risk of fire due to the heat generated during charging.
• The eBike battery must not be left unattended while charging.
• If used incorrectly, liquid may leak from the battery. Contact with this liquid should be avoided. If contact accidentally occurs,
rinse off with water. If the liquid comes into contact with your eyes, seek additional medical attention. Liquid leaking from the
battery may cause irritation or scalding.
• Batteries must not be subjected to mechanical shock. There is a risk of the battery being damaged.
• The battery may give off fumes if it becomes damaged or is used incorrectly. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek
medical attention should you experience any adverse effects. The fumes may irritate the respiratory system.
• Only charge the battery using original Bosch chargers. When using chargers that are not made by Bosch, the risk of fire cannot
be excluded.
• Use the battery only in conjunction with eBikes that have original Bosch eBike drive systems. This is the only way in which you
can protect the battery against dangerous overload.
• 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.
• Do not use the rack-mounted battery as a handle. Lifting the eBike up by the battery can damage the battery.
• Keep the battery away from children.
CHARGER
• Do not expose the charger to rain or wet conditions. If water enters a charger, there is a risk of electric shock.
• Charge only Bosch lithium-ion batteries that are approved for use in eBikes. The battery voltage must match the battery char-
ging voltage of the charger. Otherwise there is a danger of fire and explosion.
• Keep the charger clean. Dirt poses a risk of electric shock.
• Always check the charger, cable and plug before use. Stop using the charger if you discover any damage. Do not open the
charger. Damaged chargers, cables and plugs increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not operate the charger on an easily ignited surface (e.g. paper, textiles, etc.) or in a flammable environment. There is a
risk of fire due to the charger heating up during operation.
• Take care if you touch the charger while it is charging. Wear protective gloves. The charger can get very hot, especially when
the ambient temperature is high.
• The battery may give off fumes if it becomes damaged or is used incorrectly. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek
medical attention should you experience any adverse effects. The fumes may irritate the respiratory system.
• Do not place the charger or the battery near flammable materials. Ensure the battery is completely dry and placed on a fire-
proof surface before charging. There is a risk of fire due to the heat generated during charging.
• The eBike battery must not be left unattended while charging.
• Supervise children during use, cleaning and maintenance. This will ensure that children do not play with the charger.
• Children or persons who, owing to their physical, sensory or mental limitations or to their lack of experience or knowledge, are
not capable of safely operating the charger may only use this charger under supervision or after having been instructed by a
responsible person. Otherwise, there is a danger of operating errors and injuries.
DISPLAY
• Do not allow yourself to be distracted by the on-board computer's display. If you do not focus exclusively on the traffic, you risk
being involved in an accident. If you want to make entries in your on-board computer other than switching the assistance level,
stop and enter the appropriate data.
• Do not use the on-board computer as a handle. Lifting the eBike up by the on-board computer can cause irreparable damage
to the on-board computer.
• Do not open the on-board computer. Opening the onboard computer may damage it beyond repair and void any warranty
claims.
• Do not stand your bicycle upside down on its saddle and handlebars if the on-board computer or its holder protrude from the
handlebars. This may irreparably damage the on-board computer or the holder. Also remove the on-board computer before
placing the bicycle on a wall mount to ensure that the on-board computer does not fall off or become damaged.
KIOX:
• Caution! When using the on-board computer with Bluetooth® and/or WiFi, interference can occur with other devices and
equipment, aircraft and medical devices (e.g. pacemakers, hearing aids). Likewise, injury to people and animals in the imme-
diate vicinity cannot be excluded entirely. Do not use the on-board computer with Bluetooth® in the vicinity of medical devices,
petrol stations, chemical plants, areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere or on blast sites. Do not use the on-board com-
puter with Bluetooth® in aeroplanes. Avoid using the on-board computer near your body for extended periods.
• The on-board computer is equipped with a wireless interface. Local operating restrictions, e.g. in aeroplanes or hospitals,
must be observed.

WARRANTY

Your drive system and its appendant components are subject to the legal warranty requirements. The warranty period com-
mences upon sale respectively delivery of the vehicle to the end consumer.
THE DRIVE SYSTEM'S BATTERY is subject to natural wear due to charge/discharge cycles and the aging process. Decrea-
sed capacity resulting from this does not constitute any warranty claims. For a 400Wh / 500Wh / 625Wh battery the following
applies: After 500 full charge cycles within the warranty period the battery still has at least 60% of its regular capacity.
