the eBike system is switched on, then the on-board
computer is powered by the battery of the eBike.
If the on-board computer is removed from the holder
(4), the energy is supplied via an internal battery. If
the internal battery is weak when the on-board com-
puter is switched on, <Attach to bike> will appear on
the text indicator (d) for 3 s. The on-board computer
will then turn off again.
To charge the internal battery, put the on-board com-
puter back in the holder (4) (when a battery is in-
serted in the eBike). Switch the eBike battery on by
its on/off button (see battery operating instructions).
You can also charge the on-board computer via the
USB port. To do this, open the protective cap (8).
Connect the USB port (7) of the on-board computer
via a suitable USB cable to a standard USB charger or
the USB port of a computer (5 V charging voltage,
max. 500 mA charging current). <USB connected>
will appear on the text indicator (d) of the on-board
computer.

Powering external devices from the USB
port
The USB port can be used to run or charge most de-
vices that can be powered via USB (e.g. various cell
phones).
In order for charging to work, the eBike must be fitted
with the on-board computer and a sufficiently
charged battery.
Open the protective cap (8) on the USB port of the
on-board computer. Use the Micro A–Micro B USB
charging cable (available from your Bosch eBike

dealer) to connect the USB port of the external de-
vice to the USB port (7) of the on-board computer.
Once the electronic device has been removed, care-
fully replace the protective cap (8) on the USB port.
A USB connection is not a watertight plug connec-
tion. When cycling in wet conditions, ensure no
external devices are connected and that the USB
port is fully covered by the protective cap (8).
Attention: Any electrical devices connected can re-
duce the range of the eBike.
Switching on/shutting down the on-board
computer
To switch on the on-board computer, briefly press
the on/off button (5). The on-board computer can
also be switched on when it is not inserted in the
holder (if the internal battery is sufficiently charged).
To switch off the on-board computer, press the on/
off button (5).
If the on-board computer is not inserted in the holder,
it automatically switches off after 1 minute to save
energy if no button is pressed.
If you are not going to be using your eBike for
u
several weeks, remove the on-board computer
from its holder. Store the on-board computer in a
dry environment at room temperature. Regularly
recharge the on-board computer's battery (at least
every 3 months).
Battery charge indicator
The battery charge indicator (i) displays the state of
charge of the eBike battery, not that of the on-board
computer's internal battery. The state of charge of
the eBike battery can also be checked on the LEDs of
the battery itself.
Each bar of the battery symbol on the indicator (i)
represents approximately 20 % of the capacity:
The eBike battery is fully charged.
The eBike battery should be recharged.
