WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 BMW 650i, 2009 BMW 650i, 2008 BMW 650i, 2007 BMW 650i, and 2006 BMW 650i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: To avoid damage when handling optical fibers, comply with the following points:
  • The minimum permitted bending radius is 25 mm
  • Do not subject optical fibers to compressive and tensile load
  • Protect optical fibers against the effects of heat ≤ 85°C (e.g. during welding work, drying work with infrared heater or hot air blower)
  • Optical fibers are permitted to show only one junction point (bridge), replace optical fibers if necessary
NOTE: The optical fibers are colored differently as follows:
  • Green=MOST  ( edia riented ystems ransport) optical fibers
  • Yellow=ISIS  ( ntelligent afety and ntegration ystem) optical fibers
  • Orange=repair optical fibers
