self-diagnosis to ensure its op-
erability. Self-diagnosis is per-
formed automatically when you
switch on the ignition.
Phase 1
Test of the diagnosable system
components with the vehicle at a
standstill.
ASC telltale and warning
light slow-flashes.
Phase 2
Test of the diagnosis-compatible
system components while the
motorcycle is on the move.
ASC telltale and warning
light slow-flashes.
ASC self-diagnosis
completed
The ASC telltale and warning
light goes out.
Check all the warning and tell-
tale lights.
After the ABS self-diagnosis
completes, an indicator show-
ing an ABS fault will appear.
You can continue to ride. Bear
in mind that the ASC function
is not available.
Have the fault rectified as
quickly as possible by a
specialist workshop, preferably
an authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.

Running in

Engine
Until the first running-in check,
vary the throttle opening and
engine-speed range frequently;
avoid riding at constant engine
rpm for prolonged periods.
Try to do most of your rid-
ing during this initial period on
twisting, fairly hilly roads, avoid-
ing high-speed main roads and
highways if possible.
Comply with the rpm limits for

running in.
