tank. The figure for average con-
sumption used to calculate range
is not shown and might not be
the same as the average-con-
sumption reading that appears on
the display.
You must put at least five litres of
fuel into the fuel tank for the new
level to be registered correctly.
If the sensor cannot register the
new level the range readout can-
not be updated.
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 side stand is in the re-
tracted position.
NOTICE
The calculated range is only
an approximate figure. Con-
sequently, BMW Motorrad re-
commends that you should not
try to use the full range before
refuelling.
