Jump starting
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 on-board socket
to jump-start the engine of the
motorcycle.
Touching live parts of the
ignition system with the
engine running can cause electric
shock.
Do not touch parts of the igni-
tion system when the engine is
running.
A short-circuit can res-
ult if the crocodile clips
of the jump leads are accident-
ally brought into contact with the
motorcycle.
Use only jump leads fitted with
8125zMaintenance

fully insulated crocodile clips at
both ends.Jump-starting with a donor-
battery voltage higher than
12 V can damage the vehicle
electronics.
Make sure that the battery of the
donor vehicle has a voltage rating
of 12 V.
When jump-starting the engine,
do not disconnect the battery
from the on-board electrical
system.
Remove the battery-compart-
ment cover ( 128)
Run the engine of the donor
vehicle during jump-starting.
Begin by connecting one end
of the red jump lead to the
positive terminal of the dis-
charged battery and the other
end to the positive terminal of
the donor battery.
Then connect one end of the
black jump lead to the negative terminal of the donor battery,
and the other end to the neg-
ative terminal of the discharged
battery.
Start the engine of the vehicle
with the discharged battery
in the usual way; if the en-
gine does not start, wait a few
minutes before repeating the
attempt in order to protect the
starter motor and the donor
battery.
Allow both engines to idle for a
few minutes before disconnect-
ing the jump leads.
Disconnect the jump lead from
the negative terminals first,
then disconnect the second
lead from the positive termin-
als.

cover ( 129)
BatteryMaintenance instructionsCorrect upkeep, recharging and
storage will prolong the life of
the battery and are essential if
warranty claims are to be con-
sidered.
Compliance with the points be-
low is important in order to max-
imise battery life:
Keep the surface of the battery
clean and dry
Do not open the battery
Do not top up with water
Be sure to read and comply
with the instructions for char-
ging the battery on the follow-
ing pages
Do not turn the battery upside
down
If the battery is not discon-
nected, the on-board elec-
tronics (e.g. clock, etc.) gradually
drain the battery. This can cause
the battery to run flat. If this hap-
8126zMaintenance

The connect battery negative
lead 1.
Install the battery-compartment
cover ( 129)
Switch on the ignition.
If the battery was discon-
nected from the motorcycle
for a prolonged period of time
it will be necessary to enter the
current date in the instrument
cluster, in order to ensure that
the service-due indicator func-
tions correctly.
If you want to have the date set
consult a specialist workshop,
preferably an authorised BMW
Motorrad dealer.
Fully open the throttle once or
