Displays And Settings Of The On-Board Computer - Bosch Kiox Owner's Manual

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 (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 on-
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 suc-
cessfully 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 8 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.
Bosch eBike Systems
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 sta-
ble condition. If you press and hold the on/off button
(4) for at least 8 seconds while in a stable condition,
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 hold-
ing 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 <Set-
tings> → <Sys settings> → <Reset [name of BUI]>.
All user data will be lost.
Displays and settings of the on-
board computer
Note: All interface displays and texts on the following
pages correspond to the release status of the soft-
ware. As software updates can occur several times
over the course of a year, the interface displays and
texts may change slightly following an update.
Operating logic
You can use the < (10) and > (8) buttons to switch
between the different riding value information pages
(even while riding). This way, you can keep both
hands on the handlebars while cycling.
You can use the + (12) and – (11) buttons to in-
crease or decrease the assistance level. If you are in a
list (e.g. the <Settings> menu), you can use these
buttons to scroll up or down in the list.
The <Settings> that can be accessed via the status
page cannot be changed while riding.
You can use the select button (9) to perform the fol-
lowing functions:
– You can access the quick menu while riding.
– You can access the settings menu from the status
page while stationary.
