rized BMW Motorrad retailer.
Jump-start
The wires leading to the
power socket do not have
a load-capacity rating adequate
for jump-starting the engine. Ex-
cessively high current can lead
to a cable fire or damage to the
vehicle electronics.
Do not use the socket to
jump-start the engine of the
motorcycle.
A short-circuit can result
if the crocodile clips of
the jump leads are accidentally
brought into contact with the
motorcycle.
Use only jump leads fitted with
fully insulated crocodile clips at
both ends.
Jump-starting with a donor-
battery voltage higher than
12 V can damage the motorcycle
electronics.
The battery of the donor vehicle
must have a voltage of 12 V.
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
Remove battery cover (
131).
When jump-starting the engine,
do not disconnect the battery
from the onboard electrical sys-
tem.
Begin by connecting one end
of the red jump lead to the
positive terminal
2
of the dis-
charged battery and the other
end to the positive terminal of
the donor battery.
Connect the black jump lead
to the negative terminal of the
donor battery and then to the
negative terminal
1
of the dis-
charged battery.
Run engine of donor vehicle
during jump-starting procedure.
Start engine of the vehicle with
discharged battery in usual
way; if engine does not start,
wait a few minutes before re-
peating attempt in order to pro-
tect starter motor and donor
battery.
Allow both engines to idle for a
few minutes before disconnect-
ing jumper cables.
Disconnect jump lead from
negative terminals first, then
disconnect second lead from
positive terminals.
