· Do not wash your bike with a pressure washer or sub-
merge it or the electric system components. All the
pedelec system components are protected against rain
and splashes. However, the use of pressure washers
may allow water to ingress into the components and
damage them.
· Avoid using your bicycle in extremely adverse weath-
er conditions. All the pedelec system components are
protected against rain and splashes. However, very ad-
verse weather conditions may cause water to ingress
into the components and damage them.
· Avoid transporting your bicycle outside your car when it
is raining. All the pedelec system components are pro-
tected against rain and splashes. However, the speed
of your vehicle may increase the effects of the rain and
damage the components.
If you are transporting your bicycle outside your car,
remove the Range Extender from the bicycle and check
that the charge port cover is correctly closed.
· Do not leave your bicycle exposed to high tempera-
tures for long periods of time. It may damage the com-
ponents on your bicycle. Temperatures above 70ºC
· Observe the recommended temperature ranges of use
(discharge), charge and storage (internal battery and
Range Extender)). The use, charge and storage outside
these recommended temperature ranges may affect the
battery cells and reduce their life and available range.
TECHNICAL MANUAL
The following table shows the maximum and minimum
ranges stated by the cell manufacturer.
Generally, the use, charge and storage of batteries be-
low 0ºC will affect the available range for charge of
a battery and overtime may reduce the battery life.
TEMPERATURE RANGES
Charge 0ºC - 40ºC
Discharge (Use) -10ºC - 40ºC
Storage 0ºC - 35ºC. Humidity 5%-65%
· Avoid storing your bicycle (internal battery) or Range
Extender for long periods of time without monitoring
the charge levels.
If planning to store the battery for a long period of
time, charge the battery to 50% of its capacity and
check the charge level every 3 months (charge it to 50%).
Never let the charge level drop below 10% to avoid
damaging the cells.
USE OF THE BATTERY BELOW 10% CHARGE:
Avoid discharging your battery regularly below 10% of
charge. Charge levels below 10% may affect the life of
the cells and the battery balance.
· Avoid leaving the charger connected to the bike con-
tinuously for extended periods of time and charge
your bicycle or battery in a place where you have
visual access to it so the charger can be disconnected
if any anomaly is detected, such as smoke, unusual
The RS Smart Charger has been designed to stop
charging the battery when the charge is completed
to avoid damaging the cells for your peace of mind.
However, it is recommended to supervise the charge to
avoid damages due to a malfunctioning charger.

· Avoid hitting or dropping your battery. If after a fall or
an impact the external casing of the battery has been
damaged, do not charge or use the battery and contact
your authorized dealer for a full diagnosis.
· Always connect the cables following the orientation
indications on the connectors. Connecting the cables
not following the correct orientation may damage the
terminals.
· Before every use, make sure that the charging point
cover is installed correctly to avoid dirt or water ingress
into the port.
Do not use metallic tools to clean the charging point of
foreing objects or dirt. Pay attention not to damage the
terminals during this process.

The Shimano EP8 RS motor, together with the RS batter-
ies, have been designed to offer the maximum possible
range for a system of its reduced size and weight.
such as:
· Assist mode: The use of the more powerful assist
modes will decrease the available range.
·
the Shimano Etube Project app will affect the availa-
power level of the assist modes, which may affect the
range available.
· Assist modes customization: The approximate range
values given below refer to the use of the assist modes
as they were originally programmed by Orbea. The

play, which does not have Bluetooth connec-
tivity, it is necessary to connect the bicycle to
the Shimano Etube Project Professional soft-
ware using the SM-PCE02 interface, since it
is not possible to connect the display to the
Etube Project Cyclist mobile app. Take your
bicycle to an authorised Shimano dealer to
perform any changes or replace the original
