Inserting and Removing the Battery
(see figures C–D)
f
Always switch the battery off when insert-
ing or removing it from the holder. When
the battery is inserted yet empty, please
also observe the drive HMI indication.
Oth-
erwise, the battery can become damaged.
In order for the battery to be inserted, the key
15
must be inserted into the lock
16
and the
lock must be unlocked.
To
insert the standard battery
18
, place it via
the contacts onto the bottom holder
19
on the
eBike. Pivot it into the upper holder
17
so that it
engages into the holder.
To
insert the rear rack battery
12
, slide it for-
wards with the contacts facing ahead until it
engages in holder
11
on the rear rack.
Check if the battery is tightly seated. Always
lock the battery with lock
16
, as otherwise the
lock can open and the battery can fall out of the
holder.
After locking, always remove the key
15
from the
lock
16
. This prevents the key from falling out
and the battery from being removed from unau-
thorised persons when the eBike is parked.
To
remove the standard battery
18
, switch it
off and unlock the lock with the key
15
. Pivot the
battery out of the upper holder
17
and pull it by
the carrying strap
20
out of the bottom holder
19
.
To
remove the rear rack battery
12
, switch it
off and unlock the lock with the key
15
. Pull the
battery out of the holder
11
.
Operation
Initial Operation
f
Use only original Bosch batteries approved
for your eBike by the manufacturer.
Using
other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a
fire hazard. When using other batteries, Bosch
shall not assume any liability and warranty.
Switching On and Off
Before switching on the battery, check that the
lock
16
is locked.
Note:
When switching on the battery, the pedals
of the eBike may not be subject to load, as oth-
erwise the output capacity of the drive will be
limited.
To
switch on
the battery, press the On/Off but-
ton
14
. The LEDs of indicator
13
light up and at
the same time indicate the charge condition.
Note:
When the battery capacity is below 5 %,
none of the LEDs of charge-control indicator
13
will light up. Only the drive HMI will indicate if
the battery is switched on.
Switching on the battery is one of the require-
ments for starting up the eBike drive. Read and
observe the operating instructions of the drive
unit and the drive HMI.
To
switch off
the battery, press the On/Off but-
ton
14
again. The LEDs of indicator
13
go out.
This also switches off the eBike drive.
When no power output of the drive is requested
for approx. 10 minutes, (e.g., because the eBike
is parked), the battery automatically switches
off to save energy.
The battery is protected against deep discharg-
ing, overcharging, overheating and short-circuit-
ing through the “Electronic Cell Protection
(ECP)”. In case of hazardous situations, a pro-
tective circuit automatically switches off the
battery.
