61 00... Notes on handling optical fibres
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW Z4, 2012 BMW Z4, 2011 BMW Z4, 2010 BMW Z4, and 2009 BMW Z4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
To avoid damage when handling optical fibres, comply with the following points:
- The minimum permitted bending radius is 25 mm
- Do not subject optical fibres to compressive and tensile load
- Protect optical fibres against the effects of heat ≥85 °C (e.g. during welding work, drying work with infrared heater or hot air blower)
- Fibre-optic cables are permitted to show only one junction point (bridge), replace fibre-optic cables if necessary
NOTE:
The optical fibres are colored differently as follows:
Follow instructions for processing cables and optical fibres See 6113... CUTTING OFF, STRIPPING INSULATION AND CUTTING OPTICAL FIBRES TO LENGTH or 6113... CRIMPING OPTICAL FIBRES .
- Green = MOST (M edia O riented S ystems T ransport) fibre-optic cables
- Yellow = ISIS (I ntegrated S ervice I nformation S erver) optical fibres
- Orange=repair fibre-optic cables
