Operating your Bosch Drive System
Read all the safety information and
instructions. Failure to observe the
safety information and follow instruc-
tions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Save all safety warnings and instructions for fu-
ture reference.
The term battery pack used in these operating in-
structions refers to all original Bosch eBike battery

Do not allow yourself to be distracted by the dis-
u
play of the on-board computer. If you do not con-
centrate exclusively on the traffic around you, you
risk being involved in an accident. If you want to
change any settings on the on-board computer
other than the assistance level, always stop before
entering the relevant data.
Accessing other apps, reading pop up mes-
u
sages/other content, or otherwise using your
device while operating an ebike may be distract-
ing. Distracted driving is a serious safety concern
and can lead to accidents causing serious injury or
death. In order to prevent distracted driving, most
devices come equipped with a "Do Not Disturb"
mode. The "Do Not Disturb" mode should be used
while operating an eBike. Please consult your de-
vice-specific instructions for more information.
You, as the ebike operator, are fully responsible for
ensuring that you pay attention to road conditions
and comply with traffic laws at all times.
Choose the USB charging cable length appropri-
u
ately. USB charging cable length must not be long
enough to catch in handlebar or front wheel. This is
important to prevent personal injury.
Do not open the on-board computer. Opening the
u
on-board computer can result in irreparable dam-
age and void your warranty.
