ASC self-diagnosis is per-
formed. ( 72)
Press starter button1.
If ambient temperatures are
very low, you might find it
necessary to open the throttle
slightly when starting the engine.
At ambient temperatures below
0 °C, disengage the clutch after
switching on the ignition.
The start attempt is auto-
matically interrupted if bat-
tery voltage is too low. Recharge
the battery before you start the engine, or use jump leads and a
donor battery to start.
The engine starts.
Consult the troubleshooting
chart below if the engine re-
fuses to start. ( 136)
Pre-ride checkThe instrument cluster runs a
test of the 'General' warning light
when the ignition is switched
on: this is the "Pre-Ride-Check"
The warning light shows first red
and then yellow, so that you can
check that it is in working order.
The test is aborted if you start
the engine before it completes.
Phase 1 General warning light shows

Some malfunctions cannot
be indicated if the 'Gener-

played.
Check that the 'General' warning
light comes on, and that it shows
red and yellow.
Have the fault rectified as
quickly as possible by a
specialist workshop, preferably
an authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.

Install screw1.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
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 ( 127)
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.
