1144_BA_E_Rev2 - VOLspeed Bosch Active / Performance V3 The eBike is subject to higher mechanical stress when operating at higher speed for which it is not designed.

1144_BA_E_Rev2 - VOLspeed Bosch Active / Performance V3 Setup Before the first use of the tuning module or after moving it to another bike the setup must always be carried out first. Even in the case of malfunctions, the initial state of the module can be restored by executing the setup.

1144_BA_E_Rev2 - VOLspeed Bosch Active / Performance V3 If the display changes from 11.1 directly to 0.0, the wiring of the module is faulty. The 2-pin connector to the motor is connected to the wrong socket. Set the factory speed limit here or activate the workshop mode.

1144_BA_E_Rev2 - VOLspeed Bosch Active / Performance V3 Speed Mode When speed mode is activated, the speed limit for the motor assistance is increased. The limit can be set from 25 to 99 km/h (15.5 to 61.5mph). Turning off the eBike automatically turns off speed mode and must be reactivated after the bike is turned on.

1144_BA_E_Rev2 - VOLspeed Bosch Active / Performance V3 Enable speed mode – Activation code set Enter the activation code. Always press the minus keystrokes first, km/h then the plus keystrokes. Input example: Code 32: press 3x “minus”, afterwards 2x “plus”.

1144_BA_E_Rev2 - VOLspeed Bosch Active / Performance V3 Activation Code With the activation code set, the "Speed Mode" and "Setup" functions can only be activated after entering this code. This prevents unauthorized activation. The code consists of 0 to 3 key presses of the minus button, followed by 1 to 3 key presses of the plus button.

1144_BA_E_Rev2 - VOLspeed Bosch Active / Performance V3 Dynamic Mode Exceeding the speed limit the motor power is reduced by default very much. A higher pedal force then results no longer in a higher speed, but in a lower motor assistance. For a more natural driving emotion in the dynamic mode the reduction is spread over a larger speed range, the so-called "wall effect"...

1144_BA_E_Rev2 - VOLspeed Bosch Active / Performance V3 Range / Charge Status When speed mode is enabled, the range calculated by the tuning module is displayed instead of the value of the engine control after 5% battery discharge. The reason for this is that the engine control can no longer correctly calculate the range due to the tuning.

1144_BA_E_Rev2 - VOLspeed Bosch Active / Performance V3 The setup cannot be activated although I follow the steps described. To prevent accidental activation of the setup, the time slots for the keystrokes to activate the setup are deliberately narrow. Failure to meet the timetable is therefore the most common reason why the setup does not start.

1144_BA_E_Rev2 - VOLspeed Bosch Active / Performance V3 Must the tuning be removed for software updates of the motor control or the display? No. However, you must activate workshop mode, see “Setup”. As a result, the tuning module is completely deactivated and no longer intervenes in the data traffic between motor control and display.
