qualified personnel and only with original
spare parts. The drive unit requires an
inspection by a certified service centre
after 15,000 km.
»This preserves the safety of the drive
unit. Unauthorised opening of the drive
unit voids the warranty claim.
›The walk assist may only be used when
pushing the e-bike.
»If the e-bike wheels have no ground
contact when using the Walk assist,
there is a risk of injury.
›All components belonging to the Brose
Drive System as well as components
that are mounted on the drive unit (e.g.
chainring, chainring mount, pedals)
must only be replaced with approved
components.
»This protects the drive unit from damage
(e.g. due to overload).
›Do not make any changes to your Brose
Drive System. Never try to increase the
performance of your Brose Drive System.
»You otherwise reduce the life of the
components and risk damaging the
Brose Drive System and your e-bike. In
addition, any kind of manipulation of the
Brose Drive System voids all guarantee
and warranty claims for your e-bike.
Improper use of the system will also
jeopardise your own safety and that of
other road users. Unauthorised changes
to the Brose Drive System could result
in high levels of personal liability or
even the risk of prosecution in the event
of accidents due to manipulation.
›Comply with all national regulations for
the approval and use of e-bikes. These
may differ depending on which country
you are in.
›Remove the battery from the e-bike
before handling it (e.g. before assembly,
maintenance, working on the chain, etc.),
and before transporting or storing it.
»Inadvertent activation of the Brose Drive
System may result in injury.
›Do not use the control unit as a handle. If
you lift the e-bike by the control unit, you
can irreparably damage the «Allround»
control unit.
›CAUTION! Using the control unit with
Bluetooth® may interfere with other
equipment, aircraft, and medical devices
(such as pacemakers or hearing aids).
Also,damage to humans and animals in the
immediate vicinity cannot be completely
ruled out. Do not use the control unit with
Bluetooth® near medical devices, petrol
stations, chemical plants, explosive areas,
and blasting areas.
›Do not use the control unit with Bluetooth®
in aircraft. Avoid operation for a long
period of time close to the body.

›Do not let the display and/or control
unit distract you.
If you do not focus solely on traffic, you
risk being involved in an accident. If you
want to make a keypad entry apart from
changing the assist mode and ride data,
stop and enter the appropriate data.
›ATTENTION: There is a risk of burns if the
motor housing is touched. Under extreme
conditions, e.g. sustained high load at low
speed when riding uphill or with a load,
temperatures >60°C can occur on some
parts of the drive.
›NOTE: Familiarise yourself with the
functions of the e-bike and its operation
before starting your first journey.
›NOTE: Keep the user manual with you on
all trips. This will allow you to look up less
frequently needed functions at any time.
›DATA PRIVACY NOTE:If the on-board
computer is sent to the service department
for servicing, the data stored on the device
may be transmitted to service employees.
WARNING! Make the basic settings
on the control unit before starting
to ride. Unconcentrated riding
endangers you and other road users.

brake, gears and all other components
mounted on the selected handlebar side.
›Carefully loosen the hexagon socket screw
with a size 2 wrench (Fig. B-g) on the
control unit.
»NOTE: The screw cannot be removed
from the control unit.
›Now slide the control unit from the side
onto the handlebar.

so that all keys can be easily pressed with
the thumb.
›NOTE: Please make sure that the operation
of safety-relevant parts (e.g. brake grips)
is always ensured.
›Make sure that the connection cable is not
crushed or bent.
›Now tighten the hexagon socket screw
slightly with a size 2 wrench. Do not
tighten the screws yet. Check the position
of the control unit.

5. Operation and Control
5.1.Before First Use
Commissioning of the display and control unit
requires no further steps after installation. The
display/control unit is ready for use as soon
as it has been correctly connected and the
battery is sufficiently charged.
NOTE: A full function is only possible if the
speed sensor and all cables have been
connected correctly and the battery is
sufficiently charged.
NOTE: The display unit does not have its
own battery and therefore cannot be used or
operated outside the e-bike.
NOTE: If the e-bike is switched on, the display
unit remains switched on while riding; even if
the motor assistance is deactivated.

Brose Display Allround | Operation and Control 27 | EN
5.2.Basic Control Elements
With the control unit keys, you can
ergonomically control the functions of the
e-bike system. The hand can remain on the
handlebar grip while the thumb operates
the control unit keys. The information on the
display tells you about the selected assistance
level and gives you more information about
your Brose Drive System.
Switch the e-bike on or off with the «On/Off»
key (Fig. A-a).
With the «Menu» key (Fig. A-b), a range of
information can be called up while riding.
Mit Use the «Increase» (Figure A-d) and
«Decrease» (Figure A-e) keys to increase or
decrease the assist level. If you are in a menu
(e.g. settings), you can use these two keys
to scroll up or down in the menu. Press the
«Menu» key (Fig. A-b) to confirm the settings.
You can go back one level at any time using
the «Walk assist» key (Fig. A-f). Changed
settings are saved.
NOTE: The menu and the settings menu cannot
be accessed while riding.
NOTE: All the interface illustrations and text on
the following pages correspond to the release
status of the software. Due to the fact that
the software can be updated several times
during a year, it is possible that the interface
illustrations and/or interface texts will change
slightly after an update.
5.3.Switching the Brose Drive
System On and Off
The Brose Drive System can only be operated
with a sufficiently charged battery.
Switching on
To switch on the e-bike system you have the
following options:
›With the e-bike battery inserted, briefly
press the «On/Off» key on the control unit
once.
›NOTE:Depending on the installed battery,
it may take a few moments for the display
to turn on.
›Press the «On/Off» key on the e-bike
battery (bicycle manufacturer-specific
solutions are possible that do not have
access to the battery «On/Off» key, see
battery/bicycle manufacturer‘s manual).
The display unit activates automatically.
›The Brose Drive System is now ready to
operate.
The drive is activated as soon as you pedal
(except in the «Walk Assist» function or in
the «OFF» assistance mode). The motor power
depends on the set assistance level on the
control unit.
As soon as you stop pedalling in normal
operation, or once you have reached a speed
of 25 km/h, the e-bike drive assistance
will be disabled. The drive is automatically
re-activated as soon as you pedal and the
speed is below 25 km/h.

Switching off
To switch off the e-bike system you have the
following options:
Press the «On/Off» key on the control unit for
at least 1.5 seconds.
›Switch off by pressing the «On/Off» key on
the e-bike battery (bicycle manufacturer-
specific solutions are possible that do
not have access to the battery «On/Off»
key, see battery/bicycle manufacturer‘s
manual). The system takes about
3 seconds to completely switch off. You
will not be able to turn the system on again
until it has completely shut down.
NOTE: Control and display unit, drive unit and
battery are completely switched off.
NOTE: If the e-bike drive power is not called
up for approx. 15 minutes (e.g. because the
e-bike is stationary) and no key is pressed on
the e-bike control unit, the e-bike system and
thus the battery will switch off automatically
for energy saving reasons.
The time in which the control unit goes to
«Shutdown Time» can be adjusted to your
needs at any time in the settings (refer to the
«Settings» chapter).
NOTE: The control/ display unit is always
switched on; even if motor assistance is
deactivated («OFF»).
NOTE: Always turn off the Brose Drive System
when you stop the e-bike.
