10.4 Operation, Storage & Maintenance
Operation - Switching on/off
Once the PowerMore battery is connected to the eBike via the
PowerMore cable, the eBike can be switched on/off via the on/off button
(5). Do not use any sharp or pointed objects to press the button.
To switch off the eBike battery, press the on/off button (5) again. This
will also switch the eBike off. If no power is drawn from the drive for
about 10 minutes (e.g. because the eBike is not moving) and no button
is pressed on the on-board computer or the operating unit of the eBike,
the eBike will switch off automatically.
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 ammable 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. Make sure that the maximum storage temperature is not
exceeded. Leaving the eBike battery on the eBike for storage is not
recommended.
Action in the Event of a Fault - The eBike battery must not be opened,
not even for repairs. There is a risk of the eBike battery catching re, e.g.
as a result of a short circuit. This risk continues to apply for any Bosch
eBike battery that has ever been opened, even at a later point in time.
In the event of a fault, do not have your eBike battery repaired; instead,
have your bicycle retailer replace it with an original Bosch eBike battery
of the smart system generation of systems.
Maintenance and Cleaning
PLEASE NOTE: The eBike battery must not be submerged in water or
cleaned using a jet of water.
Keep the eBike battery clean and avoid contact with skincare products,
sun cream and insect repellent. Clean it carefully with a soft, damp
cloth. Clean and lightly grease the connector pins occasionally. Use
medical or technical Vaseline for this purpose. Please contact an
authorised bicycle retailer if the eBike battery is no longer working.
