Overview
This part contains an overview
of these operating instructions,
along with some general inform-
ation on the BMW Motorrad
Fit-for-All communication
system. You have to pair your
BMW Motorrad Fit-for-All
communication system with
other devices before you can
use it. It is important to comply
with the instructions for care and
maintenance of the rechargeable
battery in the section dealing
with the voltage supply.

BMW Motorrad Fit-
for-All communication
system
The BMW Motorrad Fit-for-All
communication system enables
wireless voice communication
between two helmet units on
the basis of the Bluetooth wire-
less standard. Multipoint pairing
makes it possible to connect to
a second Bluetooth-compatible
device such as a mobile phone,
MP3 player or navigation device.
The maximum range over which
1
6
z General instructions

devices can reliably communicate
is approximately ten metres.
The BMW Motorrad Fit-for-All
is a helmet-independent com-
munication system. It fits into
all BMW helmets. The BMW
Bowler helmet is the exception.
The BMW Motorrad Fit-for-All
communication system also fits
into all popular other-make hel-
mets. BMW Motorrad does not
guarantee this.
The system is non-motorcycle-
specific and designed to be used
by rider and passenger on the
same motorcycle. Although it is
possible for the riders of two mo-
torcycles to communicate with
this system, the likelihood of vari-
ations in distance between the
two machines and the possibil-
ity of interference from external
sources mean that communica-
tion could not always be relied on
to function as it should.
Interference noise picked up by
the wind-protected boom mi-
crophone is automatically sup-
pressed, making communica-
tion from within closed helmets
possible, even at high speeds.
However, in open-faced helmets,
communication at high speeds is
only possible to a limited extent.
The microphone should always
be positioned as close to the
mouth as possible.
Advanced Noise
Control™
Advanced Noise Control™ re-
duces background noise while
the motorcycle is on the move. It
is activated by default and cannot
be deactivated.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range
wireless technology. Bluetooth
devices are short-range devices
transmitting on the licence-
free ISM waveband (Industrial,
Scientific, Medical) between
2.402 GHz and 2.480 GHz. They
can be operated anywhere in the
world without a licence being
required.
Note on wireless connec-
tions:
Although Bluetooth is designed
to establish and sustain robust
connections over short distances,
as with every other wireless
technology disruptions are
possible. Interference can affect
connections or connections can
sometimes fail. Particularly when
multiple devices operate in a
Bluetooth network, with wireless
technology of this nature it is
not possible to ensure fault-
1

z General instructions

free communications in every
situation.
Note on health
compatibility
The body of scientific data
available at this time gives no
grounds for assuming that
Bluetooth can have negative
effects on human health. The
BMW Motorrad Fit-for-All
communication system transmits
at a maximum of 18.88 mW; a
mobile phone by contrast can
have a transmitting power rating
as high as 2 W.
The ISM waveband used by
Bluetooth is designated for
worldwide use by industry,
science and medical technology
and, thanks to the low
transmitting power, is classed as
uncritical in terms of health risks.
Disposal
If you want to dispose of
your communication system
in future: it is illegal to dispose
of electrical devices as normal
domestic waste. Please bring
the communication system to
a collection point for electronic
devices for disposal.
Currency
The high safety and quality levels
of BMW accessories are ensured
by a process of continuing evolu-
tion. Because of this, the access-
ory you have purchased may dif-
fer from the information supplied
in the operating instructions. 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.
Technical data
All dimensions, weights and
power ratings stated in the
instructions for use 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.
