ing on the country.
Service display
If the time remaining until the
next service lies within a month,
the service date 1 is briefly dis-
played following the pre-ride
check. In this example the dis-
play means "March 2012".
If the motorcycle is driven long
distances annually, it is possible
that earlier service is required. If
the odometer reading for the ear-
lier service lies within 621 miles
(1000 km), the remaining miles
(kilometers) 2 are counted down
in 62-mile (100-km) steps and
briefly displayed following the
pre-ride check.
If the service interval has
been exceeded, the general
warning light also lights up yellow
in addition to the date or mileage
display. The Service lettering is
displayed continuously.
If the service display
appears more than a month
before the service date, the
stored date must be adjusted
in the instrument cluster. This
situation can occur if the battery
has been disconnected for a
longer time.
Consult a certified workshop,
preferably an authorized BMW
Motorrad retailer, for setting of
the date.
Range
The range indicates what dis-
tance can still be driven with the
remaining fuel. This distance is
calculated on the basis of fuel
level and average consumption.
When refueling after running on
reserve, make sure that you top
up the tank to a level above re-
serve, as otherwise the sensor
will not be able to register the
new level. If the sensor cannot
