Ensure the eBike battery is placed on clean sur-
u

the charging socket and contacts in particular.
Testing the eBike Battery Before Using it
for the First Time
Test the eBike battery before charging it for the first
time or using it in your eBike.
To do this, press the on/off button (7) to switch the
eBike battery on. If none of the LEDs on the battery
charge indicator (6) lights up, the eBike battery may
be damaged.
If at least one (but not all) of the LEDs on the battery
charge indicator (6) lights up, the eBike battery will
need to be fully charged before using it for the first
time.
Do not charge or use eBike batteries if they are
u
damaged. Contact an authorized bicycle dealer.
Charging the eBike Battery
A Bosch eBike battery of the smart system gen-
u
eration of systems must only be charged using
an original Bosch charger from the smart sys-
tem generation of systems.
Note: The eBike battery is supplied partially charged.
To ensure full capacity of the eBike battery, fully
charge the battery in the charger before using it for
the first time.
To charge the eBike battery, read and follow the in-
structions in the operating manual for the charger.
The eBike battery can be charged at any state of
charge. Interrupting the charging process does not
damage the eBike battery.
The eBike battery has a temperature monitoring func-
tion that only allows it to be charged within a temper-
ature range of 32 °F to 104 °F.

Battery charge indicator outside of the eBike
The five LEDs on the battery charge indicator (6) indi-
cate the battery's state of charge when the eBike bat-
tery is switched on.
Each LED represents approximately 20 % of the
charging capacity. When the eBike battery is fully
charged, all five LEDs will be lit.
The eBike battery's state of charge when switched on
is also shown on the display of the on-board com-
puter. Read and follow the instructions in the operat-
ing manuals for the drive unit and on-board com-
puter.
If the eBike battery's capacity is less than 10 %, the
last remaining LED will flash.
Once charging is complete, disconnect the eBike bat-
tery from the charger and the charger from the mains.

u
moving it from the holder, always switch off the
