Operating your Bosch On-board Computer

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 pack used in these operating instructions refers to all original Bosch eBike battery packs.

Read and observe the safety warnings and instructions in all operating instructions of the eBike system and your eBike.
Do not attempt to fix display or remote control while riding!
Do not allow yourself to be distracted by the display of the on-board computer. If you do not concentrate 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.
Do not operate your smartphone during the journey. If you do not concentrate exclusively on the traffic around you, you risk being involved in an accident. When using your smartphone, only enter the relevant data once you’ve stopped.
Set the display brightness such that you can adequately see important information like speed or warning symbols. An incorrectly set display brightness can result in dangerous situations.
Do not open the on-board computer. Opening the on-board computer can result in irreparable damage and void your warranty.
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 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.
Caution: Using the on-board computer with Bluetooth® and/or WiFi can interfere with the operation of other devices and systems, including airplanes and medical devices (e.g. pacemakers, hearing aids). Similarly, the possibility that this may cause damage to humans and animals in the immediate vicinity cannot be completely excluded. Do not use the on-board computer with Bluetooth® in the vicinity of medical devices, service stations, chemical plants, blasting areas or other areas where there is a risk of explosion. Do not use the on-board computer with Bluetooth® in airplanes. Avoid using the device in close proximity to your body over an extended period of time.
The Bluetooth® word mark and logos are registered trademarks owned by Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such marks by Bosch eBike Systems is under licence.
The on-board computer is fitted with a radio interface. Local operating restrictions, e.g. in airplanes or hospitals, must be adhered to.
Do not enter information or make selections while riding. Interacting with the display unit while riding can lead to accidents causing serious injury or death. You must observe road and traffic conditions, and comply with traffic laws at all times.
Accessing other apps, reading pop up messages/ other content, or otherwise using your mobile device while operating an eBike may be distracting. Distracted driving is a serious safety concern and can lead to accidents causing serious injury or death. In order to prevent distracted driving, most mobile devices come equipped with a “Do Not Disturb” mode. The “Do Not Disturb” mode should be used while operatingan eBike. Please consult your device-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.
Do not activate push assistance function while riding on the bike. Only use push assitance function when pushing the eBike.
Please note that certain State or local laws may require that class III eBikes must be equipped with a functioning speedometer that displays speed in miles per hour. Riders must be aware of any and all applicable rules and regulations related to the operation or use of class III eBikes in any applicable jurisdictions before operating or otherwise using this product.

Safety instructions for button/coin cells

WARNING: Ensure that the button/coin cell is kept out of the reach of children. Button/coin cells are dangerous.
Button/coin cells must never be swallowed or inserted into any other part of the body. If you suspect that someone has swallowed a button/ coin cell or that a button/coin cell has entered the body in another way, seek medical attention immediately. Swallowing button/coin cells can result in severe internal burns and death within two hours.
Ensure that button/coin cell replacement is carried out properly. There is a risk of explosion.
Only use the button/coin cells listed in this operating manual. Do not use any other button/coin cells or other forms of electrical power supply.
Do not attempt to recharge the button/coin cell and do not short circuit the button/coin cell. The button/coin cell may leak, explode, catch fire and cause personal injury.
Remove and dispose of drained button/coin cells correctly. Drained button/coin cells may leak and cause personal injury or damage the product.
Do not overheat the button/coin cell or throw it into fire. The button/coin cell may leak, explode, catch fire and cause personal injury.
Do not damage the button/coin cell and or take the button/coin cell apart. The button/coin cell may leak, explode, catch fire and cause personal injury.
Do not allow damaged button/coin cells to come into contact with water. Leaking lithium may mix with water to create hydrogen, which could cause a fire, an explosion, or personal injury.
