technical features.

In addition, it contains informa-

tion on maintenance and care to

Overview

Chapter 2 of this Rider's Manual

will provide you with an initial

overview of your E-Scooter. All

maintenance and repair work

on the vehicle is documented

in Chapter 13. This record of the

ment of goodwill claims.

vehicle. The vehicle has a high-

voltage system, two components

of which are an electrical ma-

chine and a high-voltage battery

unit.

Warning stickers on vehicle

components

Warning stickers on vehicle com-

ponents draw your attention to

high-voltage technology or high-

voltage components entails the

risk of life-threatening injury due

to electric shock.

not be exactly as illustrated

country-specific differences.

If your E-Scooter was supplied

with equipment not described

in this Rider's Manual, you will

find these features described in

separate manuals.

Technical data

All dimensions, weights and

power ratings stated in the

Rider's Manual are quoted to the

standards and comply with the

tolerance requirements of the

Deutsches Institut für Normung

e.V. (DIN). Versions for individual

countries may differ.

Actuality

The high safety and quality

standards of BMW E-Scooters

are maintained by constant

development work on designs,

equipment and accessories.

Because of this, your vehicle

may differ from the information

supplied in the Rider's Manual.

Nor can BMW Motorrad entirely

rule out errors and omissions.

We hope you will appreciate that

no claims can be entertained on

the basis of the data, illustrations

or descriptions in this manual.
