Storage conditions
If possible, store the eBike battery in a dry, well-ventilated
place. Protect it against moisture and water. When the
weather conditions are bad, it is advisable to remove the
eBike battery from the eBike and store it in a closed room,
for example, until you use it next.
Do not store the eBike battery in the following locations:
– in areas without smoke alarms
– near combustible or easily flammable objects
– near heat sources
– in locked vehicles (especially in the summer)
– in direct sunlight
To ensure an optimum service life, store the eBike batteries
at room temperature.
Never store them at temperatures below −10 °C or
above 60 °C.

ceeded.
Leaving the eBike battery on the eBike for storage is not re-
commended.
Action in the event of a fault
The Bosch eBike rechargeable battery must not be opened,
including for repairs. There is a risk of the Bosch eBike re-

circuit. This risk continues to apply on any Bosch eBike re-
chargeable battery ever opened, even at a later point in
time.
In the event of a fault, do not have your Bosch eBike battery
repaired; instead, have it replaced with an original Bosch
eBike battery by your bicycle retailer.

Transport
If you transport your eBike attached to the outside of

computer and the eBike battery to avoid damaging

The eBike batteries are subject to legislation on the trans-
port of dangerous goods. Private users can transport un-
damaged eBike batteries by road without having to comply
with additional requirements.
When batteries are transported by commercial users or third
parties (e.g. air transport or forwarding agency), special re-
quirements on packaging and labelling (e.g. ADR regula-
tions) must be met. When preparing items for shipping, a
dangerous goods expert can be consulted as required.
Do not ship batteries if the housing is damaged or the eBike
battery is not fully functional. Use only the original Bosch
eBike battery packaging when transporting the eBike bat-
tery. Apply tape over exposed contacts and pack the eBike
battery such that it cannot move around inside the pack-
aging. Inform your parcel service that the package contains
dangerous goods. Please also observe any additional na-
tional regulations should these exist.
If you have any questions about transporting the eBike bat-
teries, contact an authorised bicycle dealer. You can also or-
der suitable transport packaging from the dealer.
