Fuel Reserve; Oil Level Indicator - BMW R 1200GS Adventure 2015 Rider's Manual

WARNING
Danger of black ice even
above 37 °F (3 °C), despite
the lack of outside tempera-
ture warning.
Risk of accident due to black ice.
At a low outside temperature,
icy conditions must expected
on bridges and in shady road
areas.

Fuel reserve

The fuel level in the fuel tank,
when the fuel warning lamp
switches on, depends on the
driving dynamics. The more
the fuel is moved within the
tank (due to frequently changing
inclined positions, frequent
braking and accelerating), the
more difficult it is to determine
the reserve quantity. For this
reason, the reserve quantity
cannot be accurately indicated.
After the fuel warning lamp
is switched on, the range is
automatically displayed.
The distance, which can still be
driven with the reserve quantity,
depends on the driving style (on
the consumption) and on the fuel
level when the warning lamp was
initially activated (see the expla-
nation above).
The odometer for the fuel re-
serve is reset if the fuel level af-
ter refueling is greater than the
reserve quantity.

Oil level indicator

The oil level display 1 provides
information on the oil level in the
engine. This display can only
be activated when the vehicle is
stopped.
The conditions required for using
the oil level display are as follows:
Engine at operating tempera-
ture
Engine idling for at least ten
seconds
Side stand retracted
