To deactivate the tilt sensor (for example,
if the motorcycle is being transported on a
train and the train's movements could trig-

Alarm signal
The DWA alarm signal can be triggered by:
Tilt alarm sensor
Switch-on attempt with an unauthorized
ignition key.
Disconnecting the DWA from the vehi-
cle battery (DWA battery takes over the
power supply – alarm tone only, hazard
warning lights do not flash).
If the radio-operated key is within the
reception area, any alarm signal trig-
gered by the tilt alarm sensor is suppressed.
If the DWA battery is discharged, all func-
tions remain operational; the only difference
is that the alarm cannot be triggered if the
system is disconnected from the vehicle bat-
tery.
The duration of the alarm signal is approx.
26 seconds. During the alarm, an alarm tone
sounds, and the turn signals blink. The type
of alarm tone can be set by an authorized
BMW Motorrad retailer.
A triggered alarm signal can be canceled
at any time by pressing the button 1 of the
radio-operated key without deactivating the
DWA.
If an alarm signal has been triggered while
the motorcycle was unattended, the rider is
notified accordingly by an alarm tone sound-
ing once when the ignition is switched on.
The indicator light in the instrument cluster
then signals the reason for the alarm signal
for one minute.
