Safety
2 Safety
2.1 General warnings
Risk of fire and explosion due to faulty battery
The safety electronics on a damaged or faulty
battery may fail. The residual voltage can cause a
short circuit. The battery may self-ignite and
explode.
Remove batteries with external damage from
service immediately and never charge them.
Only operate the battery and accessories if
they are in perfect condition.
Only use batteries which are approved for use
on your pedelec.
Do not use the battery with defective
connecting cables or defective contacts.
Use the battery with BOSCH Systems
pedelecs only. This is the only way that the
battery will be protected from dangerous
overloading.
If the battery becomes deformed or begins to
smoke, keep at a safe distance, disconnect the
power supply at the socket, and notify the fire
service immediately.
Never extinguish a damaged battery with
water or allow it to come into contact with
water.
If a battery is dropped or struck but shows no
signs of external damage, remove it from
service and observe it for at least 24 hours.
Faulty batteries are hazardous goods.
Dispose of faulty batteries properly and as
quickly as possible.
Store in a dry place until disposal. Never store
in the vicinity of flammable substances.
Never open or repair the battery.
Charge the battery before use. Only use the
charger included in the scope of delivery.
WARNING
!
Electric shock in case of damage
Damaged chargers, cables and plug connectors
increase the risk of electric shock.
Check the charger, cable and plug connector
before each use. Never use a damaged
charger.
Risk of fire and explosion due to short circuit
Small metal objects may jumper the electrical
connections of the battery. The battery may self-
ignite and explode.
Keep paper clips, screws, coins, keys and
other small parts away and do not insert them
into the battery.
Risk of fire and explosion due to incorrect
charger
Batteries which are recharged with an unsuitable
charger may become damaged internally. This
may result in fire or an explosion.
Only ever use the battery with the supplied
charger.
Mark the supplied charger clearly to prevent
mix-ups – with the pedelec frame number or
type number, for example.
Risk of fire and explosion due to penetration by
water
The battery is only protected from simple spray
water. Penetration by water can cause a short
circuit. The battery may self-ignite and explode.
Never immerse the battery in water.
If there is reason to believe that water may
have entered into the battery, the battery must
be removed from service.

2.2 Toxic substances
Risk of fire and explosion due to high
temperatures
Excessively high temperatures will damage the
battery. The battery may self-ignite and explode.
Protect the battery against heat.
Never expose the battery to sustained direct
sunlight.
Fire caused by overheated charger
The charger heats up when charging the battery.
In case of insufficient cooling, this can result in
fire or burns to the hands.
Never use the charger on a highly flammable
surface (e.g. paper, carpet etc.).
Never cover the charger during the charging
process.
Never leave the battery unattended during
charging.
Electric shock caused by penetration by
water
If water penetrates into the charger, there is a risk
of electric shock.
Never charge the battery outdoors.
Notice
If you leave a key inserted when riding or
transporting the pedelec, it may break off or the
locking system may open accidentally.
Remove the key from the battery lock
immediately after use.
We recommend that you attach the key to a
key ring.
CAUTION
!
Intoxication from suspension oil
Suspension oil in the rear frame damper is toxic to
the touch, irritates respiratory tracts and causes
cancer, sterility and mutation in germ cells.
Never disassemble the rear frame damper.
Never allow suspension oil to come into
contact with the skin.
Chemical burns to the skin and eyes caused by
faulty battery
Liquids and vapours may leak from damaged or
faulty batteries. They can irritate the airways and
cause burns.
Avoid contact with leaked liquids.
Ventilate with fresh air and consult a doctor if
you suffer any pain or discomfort.
Immediately consult a doctor in case of
contact with the eyes or any discomfort.
In case of contact with the skin, rinse off
immediately with water.
Ventilate the room well.
Hazard for the environment due to leaking
