General instructions
CAUTION
Use of other-make products
Safety risk
BMW Motorrad cannot exam-
ine or test each product of out-
side origin to ensure that it can
be used on or in connection
with BMW vehicles without
constituting a safety hazard.
Country-specific official author-
isation does not suffice as as-
surance. Tests conducted by
these instances cannot make
provision for all operating con-
ditions experienced by BMW
vehicles and, consequently,
they are not sufficient in some
circumstances.
Use only parts and accessor-
ies approved by BMW for your
vehicle.
The components and accessory
products have been thoroughly
checked by BMW for safety,
function and suitability. BMW
therefore takes responsibility for
the products. BMW does not
accept liability for unauthorised
parts and accessory products of
any kind.
Legal provisions must be taken
into account when any changes
are made. Please refer to the
road traffic licensing regulations
(in Germany StVZO) for your
country.
Your BMW Motorrad Retailer of-
fers you qualified advice when
choosing original BMW com-
ponents, accessories and other
products.

devices
You can start using electrical
devices connected to the mo-

that they do not impede the

The cable routing should not

obstruct handling.
The cables must not be
trapped.

The sockets will be automat-
ically switched off during the
start procedure.
