For this reason, the fuel reserve
volume cannot be displayed ex-
40
actly.
After the fuel warning light
has switched on, the range
is displayed automatically.
The distance that can still be
travelled using the reserve
volume depends on the style of
driving (usage) and the amount
of fuel remaining at the time the
light came on (see explanation
above).
The odometer for the fuel re-
z
serve is reset when the amount
of fuel after refuelling is greater
than the reserve volume.

Oil level

The oil-level indicator 1 gives you
an indication of the engine oil
level. You can call up this read-
ing only when the vehicle is at a
standstill.
The preconditions for the oil level
check are as follows:
Engine at operating tempera-
ture
Engine idling for at least ten
seconds
Side stand retracted
Motorcycle standing upright on
a smooth, level surface.
The readings mean:
OK
: oil level is correct.
CHECK
: check the oil level the
next time you stop for fuel.
---
: oil level cannot be meas-
ured (conditions as stated above
not satisfied).
If the oil level needs to be
checked, the symbol 2 is
displayed until the oil level is de-
tected as being correct again.
