Introduction

Any attempt to move the motor-

cycle, change its position, start

it without your permission, or

disconnect the battery will trig-

ger the alarm. The sensitivity of

the system is set in such a way

that slight vibrations of the

motorcycle will not trigger a

false alarm.

Once you have activated the

alarm, any attempted theft is

indicated acoustically by the

siren and visually by all four turn

indicators flashing at the same

time, and the integrated immo-

biliser suppresses engine start.

Your anti-theft alarm is com-

bined with a central locking sys-

tem that enables you to open

and close the cases, the top-

case, and the radio compart-

ment by remote control.

It also enables you to switch on

the map-reading light and the

ground lights automatically.

You can customise the anti-

theft alarm in certain ways to

suit your needs and prefer-

ences.

L Note:

In order to protect the motorcy-

cle’s battery and ensure that

the engine can be started, the

alarm system deactivates itself

automatically a certain number

of days after being activated, al-

though it always remains active

for at least 7 days.

keys inside a stowage compart-

ment. If you were to mislay the

remote control unit the keys

would be inaccessible and you

would be able neither to open

The signals from your remote

the same frequency.

If you encounter this problem, try

pointing the remote control unit at

the motorcycle from a different di-

rection.

DWA_5_2_eng.book Seite 5 Dienstag, 1. März 2005 4:59 16

Overview and operation

Code card

The anti-theft alarm is supplied

complete with a sealed enve-

lope containing a code card 1.

The number stated on the code

card (remove the adhesive

label) is the code for deactivat-

ing the anti-theft alarm by

means of the ignition (

b 17).

It is advisable to keep the code

card with the vehicle registra-

tion papers, and carry both with

you when you ride the motorcy-

cle.

The code number is stamped in

encrypted form on the anti-theft

alarm and it is also printed on

an adhesive label 2 supplied

with the anti-theft alarm. You

should affix the label at a con-

cealed location on the motorcy-

cle.

If you forget the code and are

unable to find the code card, an

authorised BMW motorcycle

dealer will be able to forward

the encrypted number to BMW

on your behalf and obtain the

correct code.

DWA_5_2_eng.book Seite 6 Dienstag, 1. März 2005 4:59 16

Immobiliser

Once the immobiliser has been

activated the engine will refuse

to start even if an authorised

key is used for the start

attempt. You can tell whether

the immobiliser is activated by

switching on the ignition and

observing LED 5; if the immobi-

liser is active it will light up when

the pre-ride check completes.

L Note:

The remote control unit acti-

vates both the immobiliser and

the alarm function.

It is also possible to have the

immobiliser activated automati-

cally when the ignition is

switched off (default) without

activation of the alarm function

(

b 26).

Activation

The immobiliser is activated

• by pressing button 1 on the

remote control unit twice

(alarm function is also acti-

vated)

• by switching off the ignition, if

programmed (

b 26)

When you switch off the igni-

tion, 50 seconds elapse before

the activation phase.

Activation

DWA_5_2_eng.book Seite 7 Dienstag, 1. März 2005 4:59 16

Immobiliser

Activation

Activation of the immobiliser

after ignition off but without

activation of the alarm function

is confirmed

• by the turn indicators flashing

once

and

• by the alarm tone sounding

once, if programmed (

b 26)

Activation of the immobiliser

with activation of the alarm

function by means of the

remote control unit is confirmed

• by the indicators flashing

twice

and

• by the alarm tone sounding

twice, if programmed (

b 26)

If confirmation takes the form of

the alarm tone sounding four

times, this is to indicate that the

anti-theft alarm's internal

rechargeable battery is dis-

charged. The rechargeable bat-

tery of the anti-theft alarm is

charged through the on-board

electrical system, which means

that this problem might be due

to a discharged starter battery.

When the anti-theft alarm's

internal battery is discharged

the alarm will not be triggered

by an attempt to disconnect the

starter battery.

Contact your authorised BMW

motorcycle dealer if the alarm

tone sounds four times on acti-

vation even after a lengthy jour-

ney.

Immobiliser

Deactivation

Deactivating the immobi-

liser with the remote con-

trol unit

The immobiliser is deactivated

• by pressing button 2 on the

remote control unit once (if

the immobiliser was activated

automatically beforehand

when you switched off the

ignition, it is reactivated

30 seconds later).

Deactivation is confirmed

• by the turn indicators flashing

once

and

• by the alarm tone sounding

once, if programmed (

b 26)

If confirmation takes the form of

the alarm tone sounding four

times, this is to indicate that the

voltage in the on-board elec-

tricity supply has dropped

below a predefined threshold.

In this case, recharge the

motorcycle's starter battery

(

b Rider's Manual).

Deactivating the immobi-

liser without the remote

control unit

The procedure is the same as

that for deactivating the alarm

function without the remote

control unit (

b 15).

Activation

Deactivating the motion

sensor

If, for example, you want to

transport your motorcycle by

train, it is advisable to deacti-

vate the motion sensor. Severe

movements while the motorcy-

cle is in transit could trigger a

false alarm.

You deactivate the motion sen-

sor

• by pressing button 1 on the

remote control unit for a sec-

ond time within the activation

phase (

b 12)

Deactivation is confirmed

• by the indicators flashing

three times

and

• by the alarm tone sounding

three times

Alarm function

How the alarm is triggered

The alarm can by triggered

• by the motion sensor

• by an attempt to switch on the

ignition without deactivating

the anti-theft alarm before-

hand

• by disconnection of the anti-

theft alarm from the motorcy-

cle's battery (the anti-theft

alarm's internal battery cuts in

to supply power)

Alarm

An alarm lasts for 26 seconds.

The alarm function is active

again 12 seconds later. If the

reason for the alarm persists,

the alarm function is triggered

again, but this can happen no

more than five times in succes-

sion. You can cancel an alarm

at any time after it has been trig-

gered by pressing button 2 on

your remote control unit. This

function does not change the

status of the anti-theft alarm.

An acoustic alarm sounds and

the turn indicators flash for the

duration of the alarm. You can

program the sound of the

acoustic alarm (

b 26).

Deactivation

Deactivating the alarm

function without remote

control unit

If you do not have the remote

control unit to hand when the

anti-theft alarm is active, you

can still deactivate the system.

To do so, you will need the

code number printed on your

code card (

b 6).

Deactivation is confirmed

• by the turn indicators flashing

once

and

• by the alarm tone sounding

once, if programmed (

b 26)

L Note:

The system will permit a maxi-

mum of 3 successive attempts;

if the third attempt in succes-

sion is unsuccessful the anti-

theft alarm engages for 10 min-

utes. The cases remain locked

when the system is deactivated

without the remote control unit.

In this case you will have to re-

sort to the emergency unlock-

ing routine (

b 21).

Step Action Confirmation

1 Switch on the ignition Alarm is triggered

2 Switch off the ignition and

observe the LED

LED flashing,

alarm continues

3 Count the LED flashes until the

number corresponds to the first

digit of your code number.

4 Switch on the ignition while the

LED is on

LED OFF

5 Repeat steps

2 to 4 for each successive digit

in your code number

Alarm function

Reasons for an alarm

Once you have deactivated the

alarm function, the LED shows

you reasons for alarms, if any,

that were triggered in your

absence:

• Flashes 1x:

Motion sensor

• Flashes 2x:

Ignition on while the anti-theft

alarm was primed

• Flashes 3x:

Anti-theft alarm disconnected

from motorcycle battery

The LED ceases to output this

signal after 1 minute, or as soon

as you switch on the ignition.

If more than one alarm was trig-

gered, the flashing codes indi-

cate all the reasons.
