Range
The description of the residual-
range function ( 49) also
covers range readout 1.
However, you can also view the
range reading before the fuel
level drops to reserve.
A special average-consumption
figure is used to calculate range;
this figure is not necessarily the
same as the value you can call
up for viewing on the display.
The calculated range is only
an approximate reading.
Consequently, BMW Motorrad
recommends that you should not
try to use the full range before
refuelling.
Oil level
Oil-level indicator 1 gives you
an indication of the engine oil
level. You can call up this read-
ing only when the motorcycle is
at a standstill.
The preconditions for the oil level
check are as follows:
Engine at operating temperat-
ure.
Engine idling for at least 10
seconds.
Side stand retracted.
Make sure the motorcycle is
upright.
The readings mean:
OK: Oil level is correct.
CHECK: Check the oil level the
next time you stop for fuel.
---: Oil level cannot be meas-
ured (conditions as stated above
not satisfied).
If you call up another read-
ing on the on-board com-
puter, this symbol remains visible
until the sensor again registers a
correct oil level.
The most recently measured
level is displayed for 5 seconds
when you next switch on the ig-
nition.
The oil-level sensor might
be defective if the "Check
oil level" message appears even
though the oil level in the oil
sight glass is correct. In this
