Maintenance instructions
Correct upkeep, recharging
and storage will prolong the
life of the battery and are es-
sential if warranty claims are
to be considered.
Compliance with the points
below is important in order to
maximise battery life:
Keep the surface of the bat-
tery clean and dry
Do not open the battery
Do not top up with water
Be sure to read and com-
ply with the instructions for
charging the battery on the
following pages
Do not turn the battery up-
side down
If the battery is not dis-
connected, the on-board
electronics (e.g. clock, etc.)
gradually drain the battery.
This can cause the battery to
run flat. If this happens, war-
ranty claims will not be ac-
cepted.
If the motorcycle is to be out
of use for more than four
weeks, disconnect the battery
or connect a suitable trickle
charger to the battery.
BMW Motorrad has de-
veloped a trickle-charger
specially designed for com-
patibility with the electronics
of your motorcycle. Using this
charger, you can keep the
battery charged during long
periods of disuse, without
having to disconnect the bat-
tery from the motorcycle's
on-board systems. You can
obtain additional information
from your authorised BMW
Motorrad dealer.

ted battery directly at the
battery terminals can damage
the vehicle electronics.
Always disconnect the battery
from the on-board circuits be-

ger connected directly to the
battery posts.
