Use of other-make products
Safety risk
BMW Motorrad cannot exam-
ine or test each product of out-
side origin to ensure that it can
be used on or in connection
with BMW vehicles without
constituting a safety hazard.
Country-specific official author-
z
isation does not suffice as as-
surance. Tests conducted by
these instances cannot make
provision for all operating con-
ditions experienced by BMW
vehicles and, consequently,
they are not sufficient in some
circumstances.
Use only parts and accessor-
ies approved by BMW for your
vehicle.
Parts and accessory products
from BMW have undergone ex-
tensive testing to establish that
they are safe, functional and suit-
able. Consequently, BMW ac-
cepts product liability. BMW ac-
cepts no liability whatsoever for
parts and accessories that it has
not approved.
Whenever you are planning
modifications, comply with all
the legal requirements. Make
sure that the vehicle does not
infringe the national road-vehicle
construction and use regulations
applicable in your country.
Your BMW Motorrad dealer can
offer expert advice on the choice
of genuine BMW parts, accessor-
ies and other products.

Power sockets

Notes on use of power sockets:
Operating electrical
accessories
Battery capacity is not monitored
while one or more sockets are in
use. Running add-on devices for
a lengthy period or leaving ad-
apters plugged in for a period of
days without the engine running
can completely drain the battery.
Under these circumstances there
is no guarantee that the Maxi-
Scooter will start.
Cable routing
Note the following with regard to
the routing of cables from sock-
ets to items of electrical equip-
ment:
Make sure that cables do not
impede the rider.
