the holder in the event of impact, the on-board computer can also be secured with a securing strap (available as an option).
To remove the on-board computer, hold it by the top
end and pull it towards you until it disengages from
the magnetic holder.
u When you park up the eBike, remove the on-
board computer.
The on-board computer can be secured in place to
prevent it from being removed from the holder. To do
this, loosen the headset screw (16) until the Kiox
holder can be swivelled sideways. Put the on-board
computer in the holder. Screw the locking screw (M3
thread, 6 mm long) from below into the thread provided in the on-board computer (using a longer screw
may damage the on-board computer). Swivel the

You can use the – (11) and + (12) buttons to select
the setting you want. You can open the settings, as
well as any additional sub-menus, using the select
button (9). You can use the < button (10) to go back
to the previous menu from any settings menu.
The following settings can be changed in the <Sys
settings>:
– <Dis brgh (Display brightness) [current value]>
– <Time [HH:MM]>
– <Date [DD.Mon.YYYY]>
– <Time zone [Current value]>
– <24h form (24h time format)>
– <Brgh backg. (Bright background)>
– <Imp. units (Imperial units)>
– <Language [Current language]>

Setting up the eBike system
Requirements
The eBike system can only be activated when the following requirements are met:
– A sufficiently charged eBike battery is inserted (see
battery operating instructions).
– The on-board computer is properly inserted in the
holder
Switching the eBike system on/off
The following options are available for switching on
the eBike system:
– Put the on-board computer in the holder (5).
– When the on-board computer and the eBike battery
are inserted, briefly press the on/off button (4) of
the on-board computer.
– With the on-board computer inserted, push the on/
off button on the eBike battery (bicycle manufacturer-specific solutions are possible where there is
no access to the battery on/off button; see the battery operating instructions).
The drive is activated as soon as you start pedaling
(except for in the push assistance function or with the
assistance level OFF). The motor output depends on
which assistance level is set on the on-board computer.
As soon as you stop pedaling when in normal operation, or as soon as you have reached a speed of
20/28mph, the eBike drive unit switches off the assistance. The drive is automatically re-activated as
soon you start pedalling again and the speed is below
20/28 mph.
The following options are available for switching off
the eBike system:
– Press the on/off button (4) of the on-board com-
puter for at least one second.
– Switch off the eBike battery using its on/off button
(bicycle manufacturer-specific solutions are possible where there is no access to the battery on/off
button; see the bicycle manufacturer operating in-
structions).
– Remove the on-board computer from its holder.
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, will switch off automatically to save energy.
Energy supply of the on-board computer
If the on-board computer is in the holder (5), a sufficiently charged eBike battery is inserted in the eBike
and the eBike system is switched on, the on-board
computer battery will be powered by the eBike battery.
If the on-board computer is removed from the holder
(5), the device will be powered by the on-board computer battery. If the on-board computer battery is
running low on power, a warning message will be
shown on the display.
Bosch eBike Systems 1 270 U20 XBK | (25.07.2018)

To charge the on-board computer battery, put the onboard computer back in the holder (5). Note that if
you are not charging the eBike battery, the eBike system will automatically switch off after 10 minutes if it
is not activated. If this happens, the on-board computer battery will also stop charging.
You can also charge the on-board computer via the
USB port. To do this, open the protective cap (17).
Connect the USB port (6) of the on-board computer
via a micro USB cable to any commercially available
USB charger (not included with the product as standard) or the USB port of a computer (5 V charging
voltage, max. 500 mA charging current).
If the on-board computer is removed from the holder
(5), all values of the functions are saved and can still
be displayed.
If the Kiox battery is not recharged, the date and time
will be retained for up to six months. When the onboard computer is switched on again, the date and
time will be reset if a Bluetooth connection to the app
has been established and the smartphone has successfully identified the current location via GPS.
Note: The Kiox only charges while it is switched on.
Note: If the Kiox is switched off during charging via a
USB cable, the Kiox can only be switched on again
once the USB cable has been disconnected.
Note: To maximize the lifespan of the on-board computer battery, it should be recharged for one hour every three months.
Storage mode/resetting the Kiox
The on-board computer has an energy-saving storage
mode which minimizes the rate at which the internal
battery discharges. Setting to this mode erases the
date and time.
This mode can only be activated by pressing and
holding the on/off button (4) of the on-board computer for at least 8 seconds.
If the on-board computer does not start when the on/
off button (4) is pressed briefly, the on-board computer is in storage mode.
You can deactivate storage mode by pressing the on/
off button (4) for at least 2 seconds.
The on-board computer detects whether it is in a stable condition. If you press and hold the on/off button
for at least 8 seconds while in a stable condition,
(4)
the on-board computer will go into storage mode. If,
contrary to expectations, the Kiox is not in a stable
condition and cannot be operated, pressing and holding the on/off button (for at least 8 seconds) will reset
it. After being reset, the on-board computer will
restart automatically after approx. 5 seconds. If the
Kiox does not restart, press the on/off button (4) for
2 seconds.
To reset the Kiox to its factory settings, select <Settings> → <Sys settings> → <Reset [name of BUI]>.
All user data will be lost.
