Fuel Reserve; Service-Due Indicator - BMW F 800 GT Rider's Manual

If the fill-level indicator reaches
1/2
the -mark 1, the fuel tank
is half-full. From then on, the
fill-level will be displayed more
accurately.
The fuel warning light shows
when the fuel level drops to re-
serve.

Fuel reserve

The quantity of fuel in the fuel
tank after the fuel warning light
comes on is dependent on the
driving dynamics: the more the
fuel moves inside the tank (due
to regularly changing heel angles,
frequent braking and acceler-
ation), the more difficult it be-
comes to determine the reserve
volume. However, the tank will
at least contain the fuel reserve
volume indicated on the back
cover.

After the fuel warning light
comes on, the distance that
has travelled since this time is
displayed.
The distance that can still be
travelled using the reserve quant-
ity depends on the style of riding
(usage) and the amount of fuel
remaining at the time the light
came on (see explanation above).
After a refuelling stop, the dis-
tance counter for reserve fuel is
reset if the amount of fuel in the
tank is greater than the reserve
quantity.

Service-due indicator

If the next service is due in less
than one month, the date for the
next service 1 is shown briefly
after the Pre-Ride-Check com-
pletes. The month and year are
displayed with two and four di-
gits respectively, separated by a
colon. In this example, the read-
ing means "June 2014".
