Cleaning
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.
Keep all components of your eBike clean, especially
the battery-pack contacts and corresponding holder
contacts. All components including the drive unit may
not be immersed in water or cleaned with a high-pres-
sure cleaner. Keep all components of your eBike
clean, especially the batterypack contacts and corre-
sponding holder contacts. Clean them carefully with a
soft, damp cloth (using only mild soap and water).

Storing

The service life of the battery can be extended if it is
looked after well and especially if it is stored at the
correct temperature.
As it ages, however, the capacity of the battery will di-
minish, even with good care.
A significantly reduced operating period after charg-
ing indicates that the battery pack is worn out and
must be replaced. You can replace it yourself by pur-
chasing a genuine Bosch PowerPack from an autho-
rized Bosch eBike dealer.
Recharging the battery before and during
storage
When you are not going to use the battery for an ex-
tended period (longer than three months), store it at
a state of charge of around 30 % to 60 % (when two
to three of the LEDs on the battery charge indicator
(3) are lit).
Check the state of charge after six months. If only one
of the LEDs on the battery charge indicator (3) is lit,
charge the battery back up to around 30 % to 60 %.
Note: If the battery is stored with no charge for an ex-
tended period of time, it may become damaged de-
