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 display as
z
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 display.
Pressure adaptation
Compare the RDC value on the
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.
According to the Rider's
Manual, the tyre pressure
should be the following value:
2.5 bar
