Safety Quick start Riding Maintenance Resources
Park or store your bike safely
• Do not park your bicycle unless you
secure it to a xed object with a bike
lock that resists bolt cutters and saws.
Lock the battery in place or for optimal
safety, remove the battery and put it in
a safe place.
• See the E-System Quick Start section
or the online Bosch Electric Bicycle
Owner’s Manual for proper battery
storage.
• Park your bicycle where it cannot fall or
roll away. Any fall can cause damage to
your bicycle or property around you.
• Incorrect use of a bicycle parking rack
could bend your wheels and damage
brake or electric system cables.
• Rear cargo bike: Do not rest your bicy-
cle on its derailleur. The derailleur could
bend or dirt could get on the drivetrain.
• Protect your bike from the elements
when possible. Rain, snow, hail, and
even direct sunlight can damage your
bicycle frame, nish, or parts.
• Before you put away your bicycle for an
extended time, clean and service it and
apply frame polish.
