BMW Motorrad R nineT/5, Rider'S Manual, Page: 69 / 183

Observe all the indicator and
warning lights.
ASC self-diagnosis not
completed
The ASC function is not avail-
able, because self-diagnosis
did not complete. (The motor-
cycle has to reach a defined
minimum speed for the wheel
sensors to be checked: min
5 km/h)
If an indicator showing an ASC
fault appears when ASC self-
diagnosis completes:
You can continue to ride. Bear
in mind that the ASC function
is not available.
Have the fault rectified as
quickly as possible by a
specialist workshop, preferably
an authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.
Running in
Engine
Until the running-in check,
vary the throttle opening and
engine-speed range frequently;
avoid riding at constant engine
rpm for prolonged periods.
Try to do most of your rid-
ing during this initial period on
twisting, fairly hilly roads.
Bear in mind the load condition
when running in.
Load condition for run-
ning in
no full load (Odometer reading
0...1000 km)
Be aware of the running-in
speeds.
Running-in speeds
0...1000 km
max 50 km/h (1st gear)
Running-in speeds
max 70 km/h (2nd gear)
max 90 km/h (3rd gear)
max 110 km/h (4th gear)

the running-in check should be
carried out.

Brake pads
New brake pads have to be run
in before they can achieve their
optimum frictional force. You can
compensate for this initial reduc-
tion in braking efficiency by ex-
erting greater pressure on the
levers.
