Fitting
Fitting and removing the on-board computer
(see figure A)
Fit the lower part of the Kiox into the holder (5) first and tilt
it forward gently until you can feel that the on-board com-
puter is firmly fixed in the magnetic holder.
To remove the on-board computer, hold it by the top end
and pull it towards you until it disengages from the magnetic
holder.
Remove the on-board computer when you park the
u
eBike.
The on-board computer can be secured in place to prevent it
from being removed from the holder. To do this, loosen the
headset screw (16) until the Kiox holder can be swivelled
sideways. Put the on-board computer in the holder. Screw
the locking screw (M3 thread, 6 mm long) from below into
the thread provided in the on-board computer (using a
longer screw may damage the on-board computer). Swivel
the holder back into place and tighten the headset screw in
accordance with the manufacturer's specifications.
Operation

Before initial commissioning

The Kiox is supplied with a partially charged battery. Before
using it for the first time, this battery must be charged for at
least one hour via the USB port (see "Power supply of the on-
board computer", page English – 3) or via the eBike sys-
tem.
The control unit should be attached such that the buttons
are almost perpendicular to the handlebars.
When using the on-board computer for the first time, the lan-
guage selection page is displayed initially. You can then
choose to have essential functions and indications explained
via the <Intro to Kiox> menu item. The menu item can also
be called up at a later time via <Settings> → <Informa-
tion>.
Switching the on-board computer on/off
To switch on and switch off the on-board computer, briefly
press the on/off button (4).
Selecting system settings
Fit the on-board computer in the holder and proceed as fol-
lows with the bicycle stationary:
Go to the status page (use the < button (10) on the control
unit to get to the first display) and call up the (9) <Settings>
with the select button.
You can use the – (11) and + (12) buttons to select the set-
ting you want. You can open the settings, as well as any addi-
tional submenus, using the select button (9). You can use
the < button (10) to go back to the previous menu from any
settings menu.

Starting up the eBike system
Requirements
The eBike system can only be activated when the following
requirements are met:
– A sufficiently charged eBike battery is inserted (see oper-
ating instructions for the battery).
– The on-board computer is properly fitted to the holder.
Switching the eBike system on/off
The following options are available for switching on the
eBike system:
– Once the on-board computer and the eBike battery are
fitted, briefly press the on/off button (4) on the on-board
computer.
– With the on-board computer inserted, push the on/off
button on the eBike battery (bicycle manufacturer-spe-
cific solutions are possible when there is no access to the
battery on/off button; see the battery operating instruc-
tions).
The drive is activated as soon as you start pedalling (except
if you are using the walk assistance function or if the assist-
ance level is set to OFF). The motor output adjusts to the as-
sistance level set.
As soon as you stop pedalling when in normal operation, or
as soon as you have reached a speed of 25/45 km/h, the
eBike drive switches off the assistance. The drive is automat-
ically reactivated as soon you start pedalling again and the
speed is below 25/45 km/h.
The following options are available for switching off the
eBike system:
– Briefly press the on/off button (4) of the on-board com-
puter.
– Switch off the eBike battery using its on/off button (bi-
cycle manufacturer-specific solutions are possible when
there is no 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 10 minutes (e.g. because the eBike is not moving) and
no button is pressed on the on-board computer or the con-
trol unit of the eBike, the eBike system will switch off auto-
matically.

Power supply of the on-board computer

If the on-board computer is in the holder (5), a sufficiently
charged eBike battery is inserted into the eBike and the
