Operation Manual

Installing battery
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
panel, in order to ensure that the
service-due indicator functions
correctly.
If you want to have the date
set consult a specialist work-
shop, preferably an authorised
BMW Motorrad dealer.
Switch off the ignition.
Insert the battery into the bat-
tery compartment, with the
positive terminal on the right
in the direction of travel.
Place the battery holder in po-
sition, making sure that the
leads are correctly routed at
position 4.
Install screws 3 on left and
right.
Connection in the wrong
sequence increases the risk
of short-circuits.
Always proceed in the correct
sequence.
Connect positive lead 2 to the
battery's positive terminal.
Connect negative lead 1 to the
battery's negative terminal.
