Range
The description of the residual-
range function ( 52) also cov-
ers range readout 1. You can
also view the range before the
fuel level drops to reserve.
A special average-consumption
figure is used to calculate range;
this figure is not necessarily the
same as the value you can call
up for viewing on the display.
When the motorcycle is propped
on its side stand the slight angle
of inclination means that the
sensor cannot register the fuel
level correctly. This is the reason
why the range is calculated only
when the motorcycle is on the
move.
The calculated range is only
an approximate reading.
Consequently, BMW Motorrad
recommends that you should not
try to use the full range before
refuelling.
Average speed
Average speed 1 is calculated
on the basis of the time elapsed
since the last reset. Times
during which the engine was
stopped are excluded from the
calculation.
Resetting average speed
Switch on the ignition.
Select average speed.
Press and hold down button 1
until the average-speed reading
is reset.
