uments all the service and main-

tenance tasks that have been

carried out. This record of the

precondition for generous treat-

ment of goodwill claims.

Sale of the E-Scooter

Make sure that you also pass on

the Rider's Manual if you should

one day sell your E-Scooter. The

Rider's Manual is an important

part of your vehicle.

Your E-Scooter is an electric

vehicle. The vehicle is fitted with

a high-voltage system which in-

cludes an electrical machine and

a high-voltage battery.

Warning sticker on vehicle

The warning sticker on vehicle

components warns you that there

Equipment

When you ordered your E-

Scooter, you chose various

items of custom equipment.

This Rider's Manual describes

the optional extras (OE) offered

by BMW and selected optional

accessories (OA). This explains

why the manual may also contain

descriptions of equipment which

you have not ordered. Please

note, too, that your vehicle might

not be exactly as illustrated

in this manual on account of

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.
