TECHNICAL MANUAL
If the bicycle was on when the Range Extend-
er was connected to the bicycle's charging
port, the electrical system will turn off and
you will need to turn the bicycle back on.
This behaviour is because the system needs
to reboot to recognise the Range Extender
battery as part of the power system.
Once you switch on the bicycle with the
Range Extender connected, the Range Ex-
tender will be operational. It is not necessary
to switch on the Range Extender.
If the Range Extender is disconnected from
the bicycle while the bicycle is switched on,
the bicycle will switch off and will need to be
switched on again for the system to recog-
nise that only the internal battery is powering
the system.

Once the Range Extender has run out, the internal battery
will switch to providing power to the motor if it has any
remaining charge. At this moment, the display, switch unit
or Orbea RS Toolbox will switch to showing the charge lev-
el of the internal battery only.
batteries with different capacities will give different joint capacity results.

CHARGE LEVEL DISPLAY

Joint charge level:
With the Range Extender connected to the Rise (after
switching on Rise after connecting the Range Extender),
the system will calculate the total capacity of both batte-
the system will be given by the sum of the charge levels
and capacities of both batteries.
The combined charge level of the batteries will be visible
on the Shimano remote switch or displays and/or the Or-
When the Range Extender is connected to the bicycle
and runs out of charge, the system will once again use
the available display mode (displays, switch unit or RS
Toolbox) to only show the available charge of the internal
battery, taking into account the total capacity of the in-
ternal battery and not of the internal battery and Range
Extender as a whole.
