61 00... Notes on handling wiring harnesses and cables

In general:

To avoid damage, observe the following instructions:

Avoid compressive and tensile loads
Make sure cables are laid without kinks or abrasions
Ensure non-contacting routing at sharp-edged body parts; use muckets if necessary
Secure additionally laid cables/leads with cable ties

In addition:

Shielded cables (coaxial cables):

IMPORTANT: Shielded cables must not be repaired!

This may lead to indifferences in noise radiation and interference immunity at contact points in the shield
To satisfy the requirements of the type approval, it is essential to replace shielded cables completely

Fibre-optic cables:

NOTE: Fibre-optic cables are colored differently as follows:

Green = MOST (M edia O riented S ystems T ransport) fibreoptic cables
Yellow = ISIS (I ntegrated S ervice and I nformation S erver) fibre-optic cables
Orange=repair fibre-optic cables

IMPORTANT:

Fibre-optic cables are permitted to show only one junction point (bridge), replace fibre-optic cables if necessary
Smallest permissible bending radius is 25 mm
Avoid effects of heat ≥ 85°
