RANGE EXTENDER ASSEMBLY
Install the Range Extender dedicated mount onto the
downtube and fix it in place with the original bolts and
washers with the recommended torque setting of 5 Nm.
Install the Range Extender into the mount and secure it
with the side o-ring.
The Range Extender bottle holder is compatible with
standard bottles when the Range Extender is not installed,
CONNECTING
THE RANGE EXTENDER TO RISE
Connect the Range Extender cable to the Range Extender
charging point. Open the charging point cover on Rise and
connect the free end of the Range Extender cable..
If Rise was On when connecting the Range
Extender to the bicycle, the system will turn
itself Off and you will need to turn Rise On
again pressing the power button.
This happens so the system can reboot and
recognize the Range Extender as part of the
power system when Rise is turned On again.
If you were recording an activity with your
Garmin unit using Orbea RS Toolbox, this will
have no effect on the data recorded in the
activity. The Rise data will keep registering
when you start using Rise again.
Once you turn Rise on, the Range Extender
will be operative. It is not necessary to turn
the Range Extender On.

OPERATION OF THE RANGE EXTENDER
The Range Extender power the EP8 RS motor directly.
When using Rise with a Range Extender connected to the
system, the motor will only draw power from the Range
Extender until the Range Extender is depleted. When there
is no charge left in the Range Extender, the internal battery
will start powering the motor if it had any charge left.

BATTERY LEVEL

Combined battery level (Internal battery and Range
Extender):
When a Range Extender is connected to Rise, the system
calculates the total capacity of both the Range Extender
and the internal battery (612 Wh) and the remaining bat-
tery level information for the system will take into account
the charge left on both batteries out of the total 612 Wh
capacity.
