ImportanttoreadbeforethefIrstrIde
The most important points for you to do
1. Even if you have ridden a bicycle for years, it is important for every person to read the general “Bike Owner’s manual”
and the specific “RIDE+ Owner’s manual” carefully before you ride on the new RIDE+ bicycle.
• Both manuals contains detailed information and useful suggestions about your new bicycle.
• Make sure that you understand the proper use, maintenance, and disposal of the components of the electrical system of
your new RIDE+ bicycle.
2. Think about safety. Your safety and that of other road users is very important.
• Do not ride the electric bike without the battery pack. The battery pack must be on the bike while riding, else the bike has no
lights when needed.
• Do not misuse the electric bike by riding it without a saddle. Some bikes have a quick release on the seat post.
If the saddle gets stolen, it may lead to hazardous situations when still riding on the electric bike without a saddle.
• Check your bike for normal operation, loose parts and defects before riding. If you find any problem, visit your bike dealer for
repairs before riding.
• Be aware that other road users do not expect that an electric bike can ride faster than a normal bike.
Riding faster also increases the risk of accidents.
• Do not ride abusively. Only ride in the use conditions specified for your bike. Condition 1 (paved roads with tires staying on
the ground) is valid for RIDE+ City/Trekking bikes, condition 3 (rougher surfaces, tires momentarily NOT on the ground ) is
valid for RIDE+ Mountain bikes.
Please refer to the general Bicycle Owner’s manual for more detailed information.
• Do not over load the rear rack. The maximum allowable weight for the rear rack on RIDE+ bikes is 20 kg for bikes with a rear
rack battery pack and 25 kg for bikes with a down tube battery.
3. The electric system of your new bicycle needs special attention.
• Do not clean your electric bicycle with a high pressure washer. Any electric system is sensitive for moisture.
High pressure water might ingress in connectors or other parts of the electric system.
• Handle your battery pack with care. Do not drop or impact the battery pack. Mishandling of the battery pack could lead to
severe damage or over-heating. In an extremely rare case, a battery pack that has been severely impacted or otherwise
mishandled could potentially catch fire. If you suspect damage to your battery pack, visit your dealer immediately for inspection.
4. Maintain the battery pack as instructed in this RIDE+ Owner’s manual.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in damage to your battery pack and may require battery pack repl acemen t:
• Only charge the battery pack with the included Bosch charger.
• When not using the battery pack for a longer period, charge it to approx. 60 % (3 to 4 LEDs lit on the charge-control indicator).
Check the charge condition after 6 months. When only one LED of the charge-control indicator lights up, recharge the battery
pack again approx. 60 %.
• It is not recommended to have the battery pack connected permanently to the charger.
• When the battery pack is stored discharged (empty) for longer periods, it can become damaged despite the low selfdisch arging
and the battery-pack capacity may be strongly reduced.
• Store the battery pack in a dry, well-ventilated location. Protect the battery pack against moisture and water.
• Under unfavourable weather conditions, it is recommended e.g. to remove the battery pack from the bike and store it in an
enclosed location until being used again.
• The battery pack can be stored at temperatures between -10°C and +60°C. For a long battery pack life, however, storing the
battery pack at room temperature of approx. 20°C is of advantage.
• Take care that the maximal storage temperature is not exceeded. As an example, do not leave the battery pack in a vehicle in
summer and store it out of direct sunlight.
• It is recommended to not store the battery pack on the bike.
5. Be careful when transporting a RIDE+ bike.
• An E-bike is heavier than a normal bike. If transporting on a vehicle, be aware of the maximum load capacity of the vehicle’s roof,
towing hook and/or of the applied bike carrier. Refer to the manual of the vehicle and bike carrier for details.
• Remove the controller, battery pack and, if present, panniers from the bicycle and store them elsewhere in the vehicle during
the drive.
• Always respect local laws about transportation of a(n electric) bicycle.
• Because Li-Ion battery packs of this size and power are considered ‘Dangerous goods, class 9’ when transporting, regulations
may restrict the transport of separate Li-Ion batteries in some places. The restrictions apply to most airlines and some trucking
companies. But, if you intend to ship or travel with your complete RIDE+ bike (with installed battery pack), the regulations are
less strict. Make sure to check ahead with your airline or carrier, before booking your trip, if it is allowed to travel with yo ur
complete RIDE+ bike.
6. Visit your dealer on a regular basis for maintenance of your new bike.
• To guarantee the safe and proper functioning of the bike, the bike must be maintained on a regular basis, at least once a
year, by an authorized RIDE+ dealer.
• Your dealer has the right knowledge and equipment to maintain your RIDE+ bike.
• If you have questions about your new RIDE+ bicycle, ask your dealer!

Safety Notes
General Safety Rules
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Save all safety warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “battery pack” used in these operating instructions, irrespective of model, refers both to standard battery packs (battery packs with holder on the bike frame) and to rack-type battery packs (battery packs with holder in the rear rack/carrier).
Make sure to not be distracted by the display of the on-
board computer. If you do not focus exclusively on the traf-
fic, you risk being involved in an accident. If you want to
make entries in your on-board computer other than switching the assistance level, stop and enter the appropriate data.
Before beginning any exercise program, seek advice
from a doctor about which pressure you can place
yourself under. This is the only way to avoid potential
overloading.
When using a heart rate monitor the heart rate dis-
played may be distorted by electromagnetic interference. The heart rates displayed are for reference only. No
liability can be accepted for consequences caused by
incorrectly displayed heart rates.
Safety Warnings for eBikes
Do not open the drive unit yourself. The drive unit must
be repaired only by qualified experts and only with
original spare parts. This will ensure that the safety of the
drive unit is maintained. Unauthorised opening of the drive
unit will void warranty claims.
Do not open Nyon. Opening Nyon can destroy it and void
any warranty claims.
All components mounted to the drive unit and all other
components of the eBike drive (e.g., the chainwheel,
chainwheel seat, pedals) may be replaced only with
identical components or components specifically approved for your eBike by the bicycle manufacturer. This
protects the drive unit against overload and damage.
Remove the battery pack from the eBike before begin-
ning work (e.g. inspection, repair, assembly, maintenance, work on the chain, etc.) on the eBike, transporting it by car or plane, or storing it. Unintentional
activation of the eBike system poses a risk of injury.
The eBike system can switch itself on when the eBike is
pushed backwards.
The push-assistance function may only be used when
pushing the eBike. Danger of injury when the wheels of
the eBike do not have ground contact while using the pushassistance function.
Use only original Bosch battery packs approved for
your eBike by the manufacturer. Using other battery
packs can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard. When using other battery packs, Bosch shall not assume any liability and warranty.
Do not make any modifications to your eBike system or
fit any other products which would be suitable for increasing the performance of your eBike system. This
normally reduces the lifetime of the system and risks damage to the drive unit and the bike. There is also a risk of losing the guarantee and warranty claims on the bike you have
purchased. By handling the system improperly you are also endangering your safety and that of other road users,
thus running the risk of high personal liability costs and
possibly even criminal prosecution in the event of accidents attributable to manipulation.
Please observe all national regulations on registering
and using eBikes.
Please read and observe the safety warnings and in-
structions enclosed in the operating instructions of the
battery pack as well as in the operating instructions of
your eBike.
Safety information relating to the navigation
system
Do n ot p la n yo ur r ou tes wh ils t y ou a re c yc lin g. Sto p a nd
wait until you are stationary before entering a new destination. If you do not focus exclusively on the traffic, you
risk being involved in an accident.
Abandon your route if the navigation system suggests
a path or road which is too ambitious, risky or dangerous for you based on your cycling ability. Have your nav-
igation system propose an alternative route.
Do not ignore any road signs, even if the navigation
system tells you to take a specific route. The navigation
system cannot take roadworks or temporary diversions into account.
Do not use the navigation system in situations which
are safety-critical or unclear (road closures, diversions, etc.). Always carry extra maps and means of com-
munication with you.

location. In case of unfavourable weather conditions or locations, the satellite search may take a little longer.
Pressing the joystick 1 to the right allows you to change the
zoom configuration of the map section by selecting the sub
menu on the right side. You can display the range of your
eBike battery pack or choose one from different navigation
options. The zoom configurations for the map section can also
be changed by pressing the joystick.
Your nearest “Bosch eBike experts” are also shown under
“Points of Interest”. When you select a dealer, the route to it
will be calculated and made available for you to select.
If you have entered the destination (town, street, house number), three different routes (“Scenic”, “Fast” and “MTB(Mountain bike)) will be provided for you to choose from.
Alternatively, you can opt to be guided home, select one of
the last destinations used, or choose from saved locations
and routes. (Detailed instructions can be found in the online
manual under “www.Bosch-eBike.com/nyon-manual”.)
The selected route will be displayed as shown in the figure

During the navigation, the guidance (e.g. turn left in 50 meters)
will also be displayed via a cross fade in other operating modes.
If you interrupt a journey for which you are using navigation
and then call up “Map & Navigation”, you will be asked
whether or not you wish to continue navigation. If you continue navigation, the navigation system will guide you to your last
destination.
If you have imported GPX routes via the online portal, these
will be transferred to your Nyon via Bluetooth® or via a wi-fi
connection. You can start these routes when you wish. If you
are near a route, you can have the navigation system guide
you to the starting point or to an intermediate destination.
If you are using intermediate destinations, a message will inform you when you have reached an intermediate destination.
Nylon is not suitable for a navigation without a bicycle (for hikers or motorists).
At temperatures below 0 °C, the altitude measurement is likely to deviate significantly.
Operating mode “Fitness”
Via this mode you can view various fitness-related information.
Based on the activity levels provided in your registration, the
effect of your previous activities will be displayed on your
stamina level (training effect).
To check your heart rate, you can use a chest strap, which you
can connect to Nyon via Bluetooth®.

Energy supply of the on-board computer
If the on-board computer is in the holder 4, a sufficiently
charged eBike battery pack is inserted into the eBike and the
eBike system is turned on, then the Nyon battery pack is powered by the eBike battery pack.
If the on-board computer is removed from the holder 4, the
energy is supplied via the Nyon battery pack. If the Nyon battery pack is weak, a warning message appears on the display.
To charge the Nyon battery pack, insert the on-board computer back into the holder 4. Note that if you do not charge the
eBike battery pack straight away, the eBike system will automatically switch off after 10 minutes of inactivity. In this case,
the charging of the Nyon battery pack will also cease.
You can also charge the on-board computer via the USB port.
Open the protective cap 9. Connect the USB port 8 of the
on-board computer via a micro USB cable with a standard
USB charger (not included in the delivery) or the USB port of
a computer (5 V charging voltage, max 500 mA charging current).
Note: If Nyon is shut down during charging, Nyon c an only be
switched on again if the USB cable has been disconnected.
If the on-board computer is removed from the holder 4, all values of the features are saved and can still be displayed.
Without recharging the Nyon battery pack, date and time will
remain up to a maximum of 6 months. When switching back
on, date and time are reset after a successful GPS fix.
Note: To achieve a maximum lifespan of the Nyon battery
pack, the Nyon battery pack should be recharged every
6months.
Switching on/shutting down the on-board computer
To switch on the on-board computer briefly press the On/Off
button 5.

Power Supply of External Devices
via USB Connection
With the USB connection, it is possible to operate and charge
most devices whose power supply is possible via USB (e.g.,
various mobile phones).
Prerequisite for charging is that the on-board computer and a
sufficiently charged battery pack are inserted in the eBike.
Open the protective cap 9 of the USB port on the on-board
computer. Connect the USB connection of the external device
to the USB port 8 on the on-board computer using the USB
charging cable Micro A – Micro B (available from your Bosch
eBike dealer).
Once the consumer has been disconnected, the USB connection must be sealed again carefully with the protective cap 9.
USB connections are not a waterproof. When cycling in
the rain, do not connect any external devices and make
sure that the USB port is fully covered by the protective
cap 9.
Attention: Users connected to Nyon can affect the range of
the eBike.
Notes on Riding with the eBike System
When does the eBike Drive Unit Operate?
The eBike drive unit assists you when riding, as long as you
step into the pedals. Without pedaling, there is no assistance.
The motor output always depends on the amount of your pedaling power.
When applying less pedaling power, the assistance or support
will be lower than when applying a lot of pedaling power. This
applies independent of the assistance Level.
Battery pack temperature errorThe eBike is outside of the permissible temperature range. Switch off the

Restart your eBike system by switching it off and back on.
The eBike drive automatically switch es o ff at s pe eds in exc es s
of 25/45 km/h. When the speed falls below 25/45 km/h, the
drive is automatically available again.
An exception applies to the push-assistance function, in
which the eBike can be pushed at low speed without pedalling. The pedals may also rotate when the push assistance is
used.
The eBike can also be ridden as a normal bicycle without assistance at any time, by either switching off the eBike system
or setting the assistance level to “OFF”. The same applies
when the battery pack is empty.
Interaction of the eBike System with the Bicycle Gears
The bicycle gears should be used as with a normal bicycle,
even with eBike motor assistance (please observe the operating instructions of your eBike).
Independent of the type of gearing, it is recommended to
briefly interrupt the pedaling while changing gears. This
makes changing gears easier and reduces the wear of the
drive train.
By selecting the right gear, you can increase the speed and
range with the same pedaling effort.
Gathering First Experience
It is recommended to gather first experience with the eBike
away from roads with heavy traffic.
Test the various assistance levels. Start with the lowest assistance level. As soon as you feel confident, you can ride your
eBike in traffic like any other bike.
Test the operating range of your eBike under different conditions before planning longer and more challenging rides.
Bosch eBike Systems0 276 001 SAN | (13.7.15)
English– 12
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 battery 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 (especially the battery pack) can become damaged through extreme temperatures.
Keep the screen of your Nyon clean. Dirt can cause faulty
brightness detection. The day/night switch-over in the navigation mode can be distorted.
An abrupt change of environmental conditions, can cause the
screen to fog up from inside. After a short time, a temperature
adjustment takes place and the fog disappears.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
Keep all components of your eBike clean, especially the battery-pack contacts and corresponding holder contacts. Clean
them carefully with a soft, damp cloth.
Do not immerse any components, including the drive unit, in
water or clean them with pressurised water.
Have your eBike checked by an expert at regular intervals. The
on-board computer displays a message telling you when the
service date is due for four seconds after switching it on. The
bicycle manufacturer or dealer may base the service date on
the distance travelled and/or on a period of time.
For service or repairs on the eBike, please refer to an authorised bicycle dealer.
Have all repairs performed only by an authorised bike
dealer.

Safety Notes
Read all safety warnings and
all instructions. Failure to fol-
low the warnings and instructions may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Save all safety warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “battery pack” used in these operating instructions
refers both to standard battery packs (battery packs with
holder on the bike frame) and to rack-type battery packs (battery packs with holder in the rear rack/carrier), except when
explicitly referring to the design type.
Remove the battery pack from the eBike before begin-
ning work (e.g. inspection, repair, assembly, maintenance, work on the chain, etc.) on the eBike, transporting it by car or plane, or storing it. Unintentional
activation of the eBike system poses a risk of injury.
Do not open the battery pack. Danger of short-circuiting.
Opening the battery pack voids any and all warranty
claims.
Protect the battery against heat (e.g. prolonged sun exposure) and fire and from being
submerged in water. Do not store or operate
the battery near hot or flammable objects.
There is a risk of explosion.
Keep the battery pack not being used away from paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery-pack terminals together
may cause burns or a fire. For short-circuiting damage
caused in this manner, any and all warranty claims through
Bosch shall be invalid.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery pack. Avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the bat-
tery pack may cause skin irritations or burns.
Battery packs must not be subjected to mechanical im-
pacts. There is a risk that the battery pack will be damaged
causing vapours to escape. The vapours can irritate the
respiratory system. Provide for fresh air and seek medical
attention in case of complaints.
The battery may give off fumes if it becomes damaged
or is used incorrectly. Provide a fresh air supply and
seek medical advice in the event of pain or discomfort.
These fumes may irritate the respiratory tract.
Charge the battery pack only with original Bosch bat-
tery chargers. When using non-original Bosch chargers,
the danger of fire cannot be excluded.
Use the battery pack only together with eBikes that
have an original Bosch eBike drive system. This is the
only way to protect the battery pack against dangerous
overload.
Use only original Bosch battery packs approved for
your eBike by the manufacturer. Using other battery
packs can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard. When using other battery packs, Bosch shall not assume any liability and warranty.
Read the safety warnings and instructions in the oper-
ating instructions of the charger and the drive unit / onboard computer as well as in the operating instructions
of your eBike.
Keep the battery pack out of reach of children.

be inserted into the lock A6 and the lock must be unlocked.
To insert the standard battery packA8, place it with the
contacts on the lower holder A9 on the eBike (the battery
pack can be inclined up to 7° to the frame). Tilt it into the upper holder A7 until it engages.
To insert the rack-type battery packA2, slide it with the
contacts facing ahead until it engages in the holder A1 of the
rear rack/carrier.
Check if the battery pack is tightly seated. Always lock the
battery pack with lock A6, as otherwise the lock can open and
the battery pack could fall out of the holder.
After locking, always remove the key A5 from the lock A6.
This prevents the key from falling out and the battery pack
from being removed from unauthorised persons when the
eBike is parked.
To remove the standard battery packA8, switch it off and
unlock the lock with the key A5. Tilt the battery pack out of the
upper holder A7 and pull it out of the lower holder A9.

unlock the lock with the key A5. Pull the battery pack out of
the holder A1.
Operation
Initial Operation
Use only original Bosch battery packs approved for
your eBike by the manufacturer. Using other battery
packs can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard. When using other battery packs, Bosch shall not assume any liability and warranty.
Switching On and Off
Switching on the battery pack is one of the ways of switching on
the eBike system. When doing so, read and observe the operating instructions of the drive unit and on-board computer.
Before switching on the battery pack or the eBike system,
check that the lock A6 is locked.
To switch on the battery pack, press the On/Off button A4.
The LEDs of indicator A3 light up and at the same time indicate the charge condition.
Note: If the capacity of the battery pack is below 5 %, no LED
on the charge-control indicator A3 lights up. It is only visible
on the on-board computer, if the eBike system is switched on.
To switch off the battery pack, press the On/Off button A4
again. The LEDs of indicator A3 go out. This a lso switches off
the eBike system.
If no power is drawn from the eBike 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 system and therefore also the battery pack
will shut down automatically to save energy.
The battery pack is protected against deep discharging, overcharging, overheating and short-circuiting through the “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. In case of hazardous situations,
a protective circuit automatically switches off the battery
pack.
When a defect of the battery
pack is detected, two LEDs of
the charge-control indicator A3
flash. In this case, please refer
to an authorised Bosch eBike
dealer.
Notes for Optimum Handling of the Battery Pack
The battery-pack life can be prolonged when being properly
maintained and especially when being operated and stored at
the right temperatures.
With increasing age, however, the battery-pack capacity will
diminish, even when properly maintained.
A significantly reduced operating period after charging indicates that the battery pack is worn out and must be replaced.
You can replace the battery pack yourself.
Recharging the Battery Pack prior to and during Storage
When not using the battery pack for a longer period, charge it
to approx. 60 % (3 to 4 LEDs lit on the charge-control indicator A3).
Check the charge condition after 6 months. When only one
LED of the charge-control indicator A3 lights up, recharge the
battery pack again approx. 60 %.
Note: When the battery pack is stored discharged (empty) for
longer periods, it can become damaged despite the low selfdischarging feature and the battery-pack capacity may be
strongly reduced.
It is not recommended to have the battery pack connected
permanently to the charger.

Storage Conditions
Store the battery pack in a dry, well-ventilated location. Protect the battery pack against moisture and water. Under unfavourable weather conditions, it is recommended e.g. to remove the battery pack from the eBike and store it in an
enclosed location until being used again.
The battery pack can be stored at temperatures between
–10 ° C and +60 ° C. For a long battery-pack life, however,
storing the battery pack at a room temperature of approx.
20 °C is of advantage.
Take care that the maximal storage temperature is not exceeded. As an example, do not leave the battery pack in a vehicle in summer and store it out of direct sunlight.
It is recommended to not store the battery pack on the bike.

Safety Notes
Read all safety warnings
and all instructions. Failure
to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Save all safety warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “battery pack” used in these operating instructions
refers both to standard battery packs (battery packs with
holder on the bike frame) and to rack-type battery packs
(battery packs with holder in the rear rack/carrier).
Keep the charger away from rain or moisture. The
penetration of water into a battery charger increases
the risk of an electric shock.
Only charge eBike-approved Bosch lithium-ion battery
packs. The battery-pack voltage must match the battery-pack charging voltage of the charger. Otherwise
there is danger of fire and explosion.
Keep the battery charger clean. Contamination can lead
to danger of an electric shock.
Before each use, check the battery charger, cable and
plug. If damage is detected, do not use the battery charger. Never open the battery charger yourself. Have repairs performed only by a qualified technician and only
using original spare parts. Damaged battery chargers, ca-
bles and plugs increase the risk of an electric shock.
Do not operate the battery charger on easily inflamma-
ble surfaces (e. g., paper, textiles, etc.) or surroundings. The heating of the battery charger during the charg-
ing process can pose a fire hazard.
Use caution when touching the charger during the
charging procedure. Wear protective gloves. Especially
in high ambient temperatures, the charger can heat up
considerably.
The battery may give off fumes if it becomes damaged
or is used incorrectly. Provide a fresh air supply and
seek medical advice in the event of pain or discomfort.
These fumes may irritate the respiratory tract.
Supervise children during use, cleaning and mainte-
nance. This will ensure that children do not play with the
charger.
Children or persons that owing to their physical, senso-
ry or mental limitations or to their lack of experience or
knowledge, are not capable of securely operating the
charger, may only use this charger under supervision
or after having been instructed by a responsible person. Otherwise, there is danger of operating errors and
injuries.
Please read and observe the safety warnings and in-
structions enclosed in the operating instructions of the
battery pack and drive unit/on-board computer as well
