Tire Pressure Control Tcp; Rdc - BMW R 1200 GS 2014 Rider's Manual

fault code is the completed self-
6
diagnosis.
In the following unusual driving
104
conditions, the BMW Motorrad
ASC can be automatically deacti-
vated.
Unusual driving conditions:
Driving on the rear wheel
(wheelie) for a longer period
with ASC deactivated.
Rear wheel spinning in place
with front brake engaged (burn
out).
Heating up on the main or aux-
iliary stand at idle or with gear
engaged.
z
The ASC is reactivated by
switching the ignition on and
off and then driving at a speed
above 6 mph (10 km/h).
With extremely massive-bar tires,
an ASC intervention can occur
before the optimum propulsion
is achieved due to the greater
slip involved. In these cases the
BMW Motorrad ASC should be
deactivated.
If the front wheel loses contact
to the ground during extreme
acceleration, the ASC reduces
the engine torque until the front
wheel touches the ground again.
In this case, BMW Motorrad rec-
ommends turning back the throt-
tle grip somewhat to achieve
a stable driving state again as
quickly as possible.
On a slippery surface, the
throttle grip should never be
suddenly turned back completely
without pulling the clutch at
the same time. The engine
braking torque can cause the
rear wheel to block, resulting in
an unstable driving state. This
case cannot be controlled by the
BMW Motorrad ASC.
Tire Pressure Control
TCP/RDC
with Tire Pressure Control
OE
(TPC/RDC)
Function
A sensor is located in each tire,
which measures the air temper-
ature and the inflation pressure
inside the tire and sends these
values to the control unit.
The sensors are equipped with
a centrifugal controller, which
does not enable the transmis-
sion of the measured values until
after a speed of approx. 18 mph
(30 km/h) is exceeded for the
first time. Before initial recep-
tion of the tire inflation pressure,
--
is shown in the display for
each tire. The sensors continue
to transmit the measured values
for approx. 15 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop.
The control unit can manage four
sensors, and as a result two sets
