Equipment

When you ordered your Scooter,

you chose various custom equip-

ment items. This Rider's Manual

describes optional equipment

(OE) offered by BMW and se-

lected optional accessories (OA).

This explains why the manual

may also contain descriptions of

equipment which you have not

ordered. Please note, too, that

your vehicle might not be exactly

as illustrated in this manual on

account of country-specific differ-

ences.

If your Scooter was supplied with

equipment not described in this

rider's manual, you will find these

features described in a separate

manual.

Technical Data

All dimensions, weights and per-

formance data contained this

Rider's Manual refer to the Ger-

man DIN standards and comply

with their tolerance specifications.

The technical data and speci-

fications in this Rider's Manual

serve as points of reference. The

vehicle-specific data may vary,

for instance due to the selected

optional equipment, national-mar-

ket version or country-specific

measuring procedures. Detailed

values can be obtained from the

registration documents and the

signs on the vehicle or from your

authorized BMW Motorrad re-

tailer or other qualified service

partner or specialist workshop.

The information on the vehicle

documents always takes prece-

dence over the information in this

Rider's Manual.

General instructions

Notice concerning

current status

The high safety and quality

standards of BMW Scooters

are maintained by consistent,

ongoing development efforts

embracing their design,

equipment, and accessories.

For this reason, some aspects

of your vehicle may vary

from the descriptions in this

rider's manual. In addition,

BMW Motorrad cannot guarantee

the total absence of errors. We

hope you will appreciate that

no claims can be recognized

based on the data, illustrations or

descriptions in this manual.

Data memory

General

Electronic control units are in-

stalled in the vehicle. Electronic

control units process data re-

ceived from vehicle sensors,

self-generated data or data ex-

changed between control units,

for example. Some control units

are required for safe vehicle op-

eration or provide driving assis-

tance, such as driver assistance

systems. Control units also make

comfort and infotainment func-

tions possible.

Information about the stored or

exchanged data can be obtained

from the vehicle manufacturer,

such as in the form of a separate

booklet.

Personal references

Every vehicle is marked with a

unique vehicle identification num-

ber. Depending on the country,

the vehicle owner can be iden-

tified using the vehicle identifi-

cation number and registration

number and the help of the rele-

vant authorities. There are also

other ways to trace data ob-

tained from the vehicle back to
