force and the fastener can strip threads, stretch,
deform or break. Either way, incorrect tightening
force can result in component failure, which can
cause you to lose control and fall.
Do not paint any components of the Bosch drive

system as they may cause premature failure of
the component.
Taking care of your eBike
Please observe the operating and storage tempera-
tures of the eBike components. Protect the drive unit,
on-board computer and battery against extreme tem-
peratures (e.g. from intense sunlight without ade-
quate 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-date-
ness of system software).
Please have your eBike serviced and repaired by an
authorized bicycle dealer.
The bike retailer can also schedule the service based
on a mileage and/or a time period. In this case, the
on-board computer displays a message telling you
when the service date is due each time it is switched
on.
Cleaning
Do not submerge your eBike components in wa-
u
ter, or wash with pressurized hose. Your Bosch
drive unit is designed to be water tight to rain water
or non-pressure hose washing.
Keep all components of your eBike clean, especially
the battery-pack contacts and corresponding holder
contacts. All components including the drive unit may
not be immersed in water or cleaned with a high-pres-
sure cleaner. Keep all components of your eBike
clean, especially the batterypack contacts and corre-

sponding holder contacts. Clean them carefully with a
soft, damp cloth (using only mild soap and water).
