61 00... Notes on handling optical fibres
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW X5 M, 2012 BMW X5 M, 2011 BMW X5 M, and 2010 BMW X5 M. 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:
- Green = MOST (M edia O riented S ystems T ransport) optical fibre
- Yellow = ISIS (I ntelligent S afety and I ntegration S ystem) fibre-optic cable
- Orange=repair fibre-optic cables
Follow instructions for PROCESSING CABLES AND OPTICAL FIBRES .
