Switch the battery off. Clean the cover of the charg-
ing socket (7). Avoid getting dirt, e.g. sand or soil, in
the charging socket and contacts in particular. Lift the
cover of the charging socket (7) and plug the charg-
ing connector (5) into the charging socket (6).
There is a risk of fire due to the charger heating
u
up during charging. Ensure the battery on the
bike is completely dry and placed on a fireproof

surface before charging. If this is not possible, re-
move the battery from the holder and charge it in a
more suitable location. When doing so, read and
observe the operating instructions of the battery.
Charging with Two Battery Packs Inserted
If two battery packs are mounted on one eBike, both
battery packs can be charged using the unsealed con-
nection. To begin with, both batteries are charged
one after the other until they reach approx. 80−90 %
capacity, then they are both charged at the same time
until full (the LEDs on both batteries flash).
When the bike is in operation, power is drawn from
both batteries on an alternating basis.
If you take the battery packs out of the holders, you
can charge each battery pack individually.
Charging process
The charging process begins as soon as the charger is
connected to the battery or charging socket on the
bike and to the mains.
Note: The charging process is only possible when the
temperature of the eBike battery is within the permit-
ted charging temperature range.
Note: The drive unit is deactivated during the charg-
ing process.
The battery can be charged with or without the on-
board computer. When charging without the on-
board computer, the charging progress can be ob-
served via the battery charge indicator.
When the on-board computer is connected, a charg-
ing notification appears on the display.
The state of charge is displayed by the battery charge
indicator (9) on the battery and by the bars on the on-
board computer.
The LEDs on the battery charge indicator (9) will flash
during the charging process. Each solid illuminated
LED represents approximately 20 % of the charging
capacity. The flashing LED indicates the next 20 %
currently charging.
Once the eBike battery is fully charged, the LEDs ex-
tinguish immediately and the on-board computer is

switched off. The charging process is terminated. The
state of charge can be displayed for three seconds by
pressing the on/off button (10) on the eBike battery.
Disconnect the charger from the mains and the bat-
tery from the charger.
When the battery is disconnected from the charger,
the battery is automatically switched off.
Maintenance/cleaning
WARNING
Do not open any of the components. Service
u
should only be carried out at an authorized
Bosch eBike dealer. Failure to follow above warn-
ing can cause death or serious injury. Refer to your
bicycle manual or component manual for all non-

chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust, or
metal powders). Obey all signs and instructions.
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.
Do not paint any components of the Bosch drive
u
system as they may cause premature failure of
the component.

Note: If you have charged the battery on the bike,
carefully close the charging socket (6) with the cover
(7) after charging, so that no dirt or water can get in.
If the charger is not disconnected from the battery af-
ter charging, the charger will switch itself back on af-
ter a few hours, check the state of charge of the bat-
tery and begin the charging process again if neces-
sary.
