– Switch off the eBike battery using its on/off button
(some bicycle manufacturer-specific solutions pre-
vent access to the battery on/off button; see the bi-
cycle manufacturer operating instructions).
– Remove the on-board computer from its holder.
If no power is drawn from the eBike drive for about
ten 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 auto-
matically to save energy.
Energy supply of the on-board computer
If the on-board computer is in the holder (5), a suffi-
ciently 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 bat-
tery.
If the on-board computer is removed from the holder
(5), the device will be powered by the on-board com-
puter battery. If the on-board computer battery is
running low on power, a warning message will be
shown on the display.
To charge the on-board computer battery, put the on-
board computer back in the holder (5). Note that if
you are not charging the eBike battery, the eBike sys-
tem will automatically switch off after 10 minutes if it
is not activated. If this happens, the on-board com-
puter 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 stan-
dard) or the USB port of a computer (max. 5 V charg-
ing 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 are still
displayed.
If the Kiox battery is not recharged, the date and time
will be retained for up to six months. When the on-
Bosch eBike Systems
board 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 com-
puter battery, it should be recharged for one hour ev-
ery 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 com-
puter (for at least eight seconds).
If the on-board computer does not start when the on/
off button (4) is pressed briefly, the on-board com-
puter is in storage mode.
You can deactivate storage mode by pressing the on/
off button (4) for at least two seconds.
The on-board computer detects whether it is in fully
working order. If you press and hold the on/off but-
ton (4) for at least eight seconds while the on-board
computer is in fully working order, it will go into stor-
age mode. If, contrary to expectations, the Kiox is not
in working order and cannot be operated, pressing
and holding the on/off button (4) (for at least
eight seconds) will reset it. After being reset, the on-
board computer will restart automatically after ap-
prox. five seconds. If the Kiox does not restart, press
the on/off button (4) for two seconds.
To reset the Kiox to its factory settings, select <Set-
tings> → <Sys settings> → <Factory reset>. All
user data will be lost.
