Q:

[iOS version] I cannot log into SHIMANO ID with my iPhone. (R-3010)

Our testing confirmed that this occurs because communications tend to become unstable when a device with iOS12.3.1 is used.
It has been reported that upgrading the iOS version can improve communications. Upgrade the version, then try to log in again.

Q:

The bicycle does not start when the satellite power button or cycle computer power button is pressed. (NP-6141)

The bicycle may not start when the level of the built-in battery on the satellite system ON/OFF switch or cycle computer is low due to a long storage period or other reasons.

Perform one of the following operations (1) or (2) to charge the built-in battery.

(1) Use the (main) battery power button to start the bicycle.

The built-in battery will be charged as you use the bicycle.

The following are indications for a low built-in battery level:

  • EW-SW100/EW-SW300: The LED flashes twice when the power is turned on.
  • SC-E6100: The battery icon is displayed under the SHIMANO STEPS/SHIMANO E-BIKE SYSTEMS logo when the power is turned on.

It takes up to 2 hours for the built-in battery to be fully charged.

(2) If the bicycle cannot be started with the (main) battery power button:

  • Charge the built-in battery with the (main) battery attached to the bicycle. (For bicycle systems with BM-E6000/BM-E6010/EW-CP100 only.)

The built-in battery is charged at the same time until the (main) battery is fully charged.

  • Connect your PC to SM-PCE02 and charge the built-in battery using E-TUBE PROJECT Professional. (Use a single unit connection for SM-PCE1.)

If "Failed to charge" is displayed on the app after charging is started, disconnect the cycle computer and then try charging again.
