measured-value signals for some
time after the vehicle comes to a
stop.
Transmission duration
of the measured values
after vehicle standstill:
min 15 min
An error message is issued if
wheels without sensors are fit-
ted to a vehicle equipped with an
RDC control unit.
Tyre pressure ranges
The RDC control unit
distinguishes between three tyre
pressure ranges matched to the
vehicle:
Filling pressure within the per-
missible tolerance
Filling pressure in the limit
range of the permissible tol-
erance
Filling pressure outside permit-
ted tolerance
Temperature
compensation
Tyre pressure is a temperature-
sensitive variable: pressure in-
creases as tyre-air temperature
rises and decreases as tyre-air
temperature drops. Tyre-air tem-
perature depends on ambient
temperature as well as on the
style of riding and the duration of
the ride.
The tyre pressures
are shown in the TFT
display as temperature
compensated and always
refer to the following tyre air
temperature:
20 °C
The air lines available to the pub-
lic in petrol stations and motor-
way service areas have gauges
that do not compensate for tem-
perature; the reading shown by
a gauge of this nature is the
temperature-dependent tyre-air
pressure. As a result, the val-
ues displayed there usually do
not correspond to the values dis-
played in the TFT display.
Pressure adaptation
Compare the RDC value on the
TFT display with the value in the
table on the back cover of the
Rider's Manual. Then use the
air-line gauge at a service station
to compensate for the difference
between the RDC reading and
the value in the table.
Example
According to the Rider's
Manual, the tyre pressure
should be the following value:
2.5 bar
The following display is shown
in the TFT display:
2.3 bar
