Safety directions
− Please follow all safety directions and instructions
found in both these Instructions for Use and in all
other sets of instructions supplied with the e-Bike.
→ Not following these safety directions and instruc-
tions can lead to electric shocks, fires and/or seve-
re injuries. Injury and/or damage are also possible
as a result of dangerous reactions of chemical
substances leaking out of the battery pack(26) due
to a failure to follow the safety directions.
− Keep these Instructions for Use safe for future refe-
rence.
− The term “battery pack” used in these Instructions for
Use equally relates to downtube-mounted battery
packs, rack-mounted battery packs and frame-integ-
rated battery packs.
− Remove the battery pack(26) from the e-bike before
working on the latter (e.g. when fitting, servicing or
working on the chain etc.), transporting it, placing it in
storage or not using it for a lengthy period.
→ There is a risk of injury if the e-Bike System is acti-
vated by mistake.
− Do not open, take apart or break up the battery
pack(26).
→ There is a risk of a short-circuit. If the battery
pack (26) is opened, this invalidates all warranty
claims.
− Protect the battery pack(26) from heat(e.g. also from
continual sunlight), fire and immersion in water.
→ This creates an explosion risk.
− Keep all metal objects(e.g. paper clips, nails, screws,
keys etc.) well clear of the stored battery pack (26):
they could cause bridging of the contacts.
→ A short-circuit can lead to burns or fires. If short-
circuit damage results in this context, any claim for
warranty by Brose is invalidated.
− Fluid can leak out of the battery pack(26) if the latter
is not used correctly. Avoid any contact with this flu-
id. If contact does occur, rinse off the affected parts
of the body with water. If the fluid contacts any sensi-
tive membranes (e.g. eye), please also consult a
doctor without delay.
→ Leaking battery fluid can cause skin irritation or
burns.
− Battery packs(26) must not be subjected to any me-
chanical impacts.
→ There is a risk of the battery pack(26) being dama-
ged.
− On no account continue to use any battery packs(26)
which are defective or damaged.
→ There is an increased risk of short-circuits, fires or
electric shocks.
− If the battery pack(26) is damaged or used incorrect-
ly, vapors may be emitted. Let in plenty of fresh air,
and consult a doctor if you suffer from any complaint.
→ These vapors can irritate the airways.
− Charge the battery pack (26) using only the battery
charger(33) supplied with your Brose e-Bike System.
→ If other chargers are used, a risk of fire cannot be
ruled out.
− Use the battery pack(26) only in conjunction with e-
Bikes using the original Brose e-Bike System.
→ This is the only way to protect the battery pack(26)
from dangerous overloading.
− Only use battery packs (26) approved by the cycle
manufacturer for your e-Bike.
→ Using other battery packs can lead to injury and/or
fire risk. If other battery packs are used, Brose shall
not assume any liability or warranty.
− Please read and follow the safety directions and inst-
ructions found in both these instructions for use of all
components of the e-bike systems and the instruc-
tions for use of your e-bike.
− Keep the battery pack(26) away from children.
− Always keep the battery pack(26) clean and dry.
− Always ensure that the contacts of the battery
pack(26) are clean. If they are fouled, clean them with
a dry cloth.
− Avoid unnecessary charging. Do not charge the bat-
tery pack(26) over a long period if you do not use it.
− Never leave the battery pack (26) and battery char-
ger(33) unattended during charging.
Use for the intended purpose
The battery pack(26) is designed and intended only for
use in a Brose e-Bike System.
Key to illustrations
The numbering of the components described relates to
the illustrations on the picture pages at the beginning of
the instructions.
N.B.: All illustrations are diagrammatical and serve as
examples. They may differ in some details from your e-
Bike, since the Brose e-Bike System can be combined
with a large number of different battery pack variants.
Detailed information on the battery pack (26) used in
your e-Bike can be obtained from your bicycle dealer
and the cycle manufacturer.
