Charging connected
battery
Charging the connected
battery directly at the bat-
tery terminals can damage the
motorcycle electronics.
To charge the battery via the
battery terminals, disconnect the
battery first.
Charging the battery via
the onboard socket is only
possible with suitable chargers.
Unsuitable chargers can result in
damage to the motorcycle elec-
tronics.
Use BMW chargers with the
part numbers 71 60 7 688 864
(220 V) or, as applicable,
71 60 7 688 865 (110 V). If in
doubt, charge the disconnected
battery directly at the terminals.
If you switch on the igni-
tion and the multifunction
display and indicator lights fail
to light up, the battery is com-
pletely flat. Attempting to charge
a completely flat battery via the
onboard socket can cause dam-
age to the motorcycle's electron-
ics.
Always charge a completely
drained battery directly at the
terminals of the disconnected
battery.
Charge disconnected battery
via onboard socket.
The motorcycle's onboard
electronics know when the
battery is fully charged. The
onboard socket is switched off
when this happens.
Comply with operating instruc-
tions of charger.
If you are unable to
charge the battery via
the onboard socket, you
may be using a charger that
is not compatible with your
motorcycle's electronics. In this
case, please charge the battery
directly at the terminals of the
disconnected battery.
Charging disconnected
battery
Charge battery using a suitable
charger.
Comply with operating instruc-
tions of charger.
Once battery is fully charged,
disconnect charger's terminal
clips from battery terminals.
In the case of longer peri-
ods when the motorcycle is
not being used, the battery must
be recharged regularly. See the
instructions for caring for your
battery. Always fully recharge
the battery before returning it to
use.
