Shimano Adapter SM-BTE60 – The Bridge for Your Charger

With the Shimano Adapter SM-BTE60 (suitable for chargers from the EC-E600* / EC-E800* series), you make your e-bike system even more flexible. This practical adapter is the necessary connection to charge Shimano STEPS batteries of the first generation (such as the BT-E6000, BT-E6001, or BT-E6010) directly with the modern chargers EC-E6000, EC-E6002, or the fast charger EC-E8004. If you prefer to remove your battery for charging, this little helper is indispensable.

The adapter is robustly built and ensures stable, secure power transmission without loose contacts. Thanks to its compact size, it fits into any saddlebag or backpack, allowing you to remain completely independent from the permanently installed charging socket on the frame even during longer tours or vacations. Just plug it onto the charger’s connector, connect it to the battery, and the energy flows.

Assembly and Application Tips

• Easy Plugging: Firmly slide the SM-BTE60 adapter onto the round connector of your Shimano charger until it clicks into place.

• Direct Connection: Now connect the adapter to the connection port of your removed battery. Ensure that the contacts are clean and dust-free.

• Flexibility: Ideal for commuters who want to charge their battery at the office while the bicycle is securely stored in the basement or bike rack.

Care and Safety Instructions

• Protect Contacts: Make sure that the fine pins inside the adapter are not bent. Always place the adapter straight and without force.

• Avoid Moisture: Like all electronic components, the adapter should only be used and stored in a dry state.

• Cleaning: If the contacts become dirty, carefully clean them with a dry cotton swab or some compressed air. Never use water or aggressive cleaning agents.
