Influences on the Operating Range
The range is affected by a number of factors, such as:
– Assistance level
– Speed
– Gear changing behaviour
– Tyre type and tyre pressure
– Age and condition of the battery
– Route profile (gradients) and conditions (road surface)
– Headwind and ambient temperature
– Weight of eBike, driver and luggage.
For this reason, it is not possible to precisely predict the
range before and during a trip. General rules:
– With the same assistance level on the eBike drive: The less
energy you need to exert in order to reach a certain speed
(e.g. by changing gears optimally), the less energy the
eBike drive will consume and the higher the range per bat-
tery charge will be.
– The higher the assistance level under otherwise same con-
ditions, the lower the range.
Careful Handling of the eBike
Please observe the operating and storage temperatures of the
eBike components. Protect the drive unit, on-board computer
and battery against extreme temperatures (e.g. from intense
sunlight without adequate ventilation). The components (es-
pecially the battery pack) can become damaged through ex-
treme temperatures.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
When changing the bulbs, ensure that the bulbs are compati-
ble with the Bosch eBike system (ask your bicycle dealer) and
that the specified voltage matches. Bulbs must be replaced
only with bulbs of the same voltage.
Do not immerse any components, including the drive unit, in
water or clean them with pressurised water.
Have your eBike system checked by an expert at least once a
year (including mechanical parts, up-to-dateness of system
software).
For service or repairs on the eBike, please refer to an author-
ised bicycle dealer.
