How to Set Up Bosch Compatibility on Your UNIT 1 Helmet

Follow these steps to set up your UNIT 1 helmet for use with an eBike equipped with the smart system from Bosch.

1. Update the UNIT 1 app and your helmet

Make sure you have UNIT 1 app version 3.8.0 or later installed.

Then, open the app and complete any available software update for your helmet. You can check that your helmet is running the latest software by going to:

Settings → Device → Software Updates

The status should show “Up to date.”

2. Check that your eBike is compatible

This feature is available for eBikes equipped with the smart system from Bosch.

You can identify a compatible system if your bike includes one of the following components:

  • LED Remote

  • System Controller

  • Purion 200

  • Kiox 300 / 500

  • Kiox 400C

⚠️ eBikes using Bosch eBike System 2 are not supported.

3. Update your eBike system

Make sure the smart system from Bosch is running the latest available firmware before continuing with the setup.

4. Add your UNIT 1 helmet through the eBike Flow app from Bosch

Open the official eBike Flow app from Bosch and follow the instructions to add your UNIT 1 helmet.

You can find the app and additional information on the Bosch website:

5. Complete the setup

Once your helmet recognizes the smart system from Bosch, the feature becomes active immediately.

The UNIT 1 app will detect the change automatically and update the experience accordingly.

Good to know

  • Before starting any update, make sure your helmet is charged, powered on, and nearby.

  • Keep the helmet turned on throughout the entire update process. Do not turn it off until the update is complete.
