2007 BMW MOTORRAD K 1200 S warning lights

Locking handlebars
If the motorcycle is on the
side stand, the surface of
the ground will determine wheth-
er it is better to turn the handle-
bars to the left or right. However,
the motorcycle is more stable on
a level surface with the handle-
bars turned to the left than with
the handlebars turned to the
right.
On level ground, always turn the
handlebars to the left to set the
steering lock.
Turn the handlebars to the full
left or right lock position. Turn the key to position
3,
while moving the handlebars
slightly.
Ignition, lights and all function
circuits switched off.
Handlebars locked.
Key can be removed.
Electronic immobiliserProtection against theftThe electronic immobiliser helps
protect your BMW motorcycle
from theft, and this enhanced se-
curity is at your disposal without
any need for you to set paramet-
ers or activate additional systems.
The engine of a motorcycle fit-
ted with this electronic immobil-
iser can be started only with the
keys that belong to the vehicle.
You can also have your author-
ised BMW Motorrad dealer bar
individual keys, for example if a
particular key goes missing. The engine cannot be started with a
key that has been barred.
In-key electronicsThe motorcycle's electronics
exchange certain continuously
changing signals with the elec-
tronics in the key; these signals
are specific to your motorcycle
and they are transmitted via the
ring aerial in the ignition lock.
The ignition is not enabled for
starting until the key has been
recognised as "authorised" for
your motorcycle.
A spare key attached to
the same ring as the ig-
nition key used to start the en-
gine could "irritate" the electron-
ics, in which case the enabling
signal for starting is not issued.
The
EWS
warning appears in the
multifunction display.
Always keep the spare key sep-
arately from the ignition key.
