Interaction of the eBike System with the Bicycle Gears
The bicycle gears should be used as with a normal bicycle,
even with eBike motor assistance (please follow the operat-
ing instructions for your eBike).
Independent of the type of gearing, it is recommended to
briefly interrupt the pedaling while changing gears. This
makes changing gears easier and reduces the wear on the
drive train.
By selecting the right gear, you can increase the speed and
range with the same pedaling effort.
For this reason, follow the shift recommendations provided
by indications g and h on your display. If indication g is
displayed, you should shift to a higher gear with lower
cadence. If indication h is displayed, you should select a
lower gear with higher cadence.
Switching bike lights On/Off
If your lights are set up to be powered by the eBike system,
then you can use the 2 button on the on-board computer to
simultaneously switch both the front light and the rear light
on and off.
When the lighting is switched on, "Lights on" appears, and
when the lighting is switched off, "Lights off" appears for
approx. 1 s in the text indicator d. The light symbol c is dis-
played when the light is on.
Switching the driving light on and off has no effect on the
backlighting for the display. The backlighting for the display
is active as soon as the system or the display is switched on.
Switching the Walk Assistance On/Off
The walk assistance can make it easier for you to push the
eBike. The speed of this function depends on the selected
gear and can reach a maximum of 3.7 mph. The lower the
selected gear, the lower the speed of the walk assistance
function (at full capacity).
Using the walk assistance function is only recom-
mended when pushing the eBike. There is risk of injury
if the wheels of the eBike are not in contact with the
ground while using the walk assistance.
To activate the walk assistance function, briefly press but-
ton "WALK" on your on-board computer. After activation,
press button "+" within 3 s and keep it pressed. The eBike
drive is switched on.
Note: The walk assistance cannot be activated in the "OFF"
assistance level.
Bosch eBike Systems
The walk assistance is switched off as soon as one of the
following occurs:
– you release the button "+" 13,
– the wheels of the eBike are stopped (e.g. by actuating
the brakes or impacting against an obstacle),
– the speed exceeds 3.7 mph.
Note: On some systems the walk assistance function can
be started directly by pressing the "WALK" button.
Speed and Distance Indicator
The speed indicator f always displays the current speed.
The following functions are available in the function
indicator (combination of text indicator d and value
indicator e):
– "Clock": Current time
– "Max. speed": Maximum speed achieved since the last
reset
– "Avg. speed": Average speed achieved since the last
reset
– "Trip time": Trip time since the last reset
– "Range": Estimated range of the available battery pack
charge (for constant conditions such as assistance
level, route profile, etc.)
– "Odometer": Display of the total distance traveled with
the eBike (cannot be reset)
– "Trip distance": Distance covered since the last reset
To switch between the indication functions, press the "i"
button 1 on the on-board computer or the "i" button 11 on
the operating unit until the desired function is displayed.
To reset "Trip distance", "Trip time" and "Avg. speed",
switch to any of the three functions and then press and hold
the "RESET" button 6 until the indicator is set to zero. This
also resets the values for the other two functions.
To reset the "Max. speed", switch to this function and then
press and hold the "RESET" button 6 until the indicator is
set to zero.
To reset "Range", switch to this function and then press
the "RESET" 6 button until the display is reset to the value
of the factory setting.
When the on-board computer is removed from the holder
4, all function values remain stored and can be viewed.
