Fuel reserve
The fuel quantity in the fuel tank
when the low-fuel warning light
switches on depends on the driv-
ing dynamics. The more the fuel
moves around in the fuel tank
(due to frequent changes of the
banking angle, frequent braking
and acceleration), the harder it is
to accurately determine the fuel
reserve. For this reason, the fuel
reserve cannot be determined
precisely.
After the low-fuel warn-
ing light switches on, the
odometer for the fuel reserve
TRIP R
is automatically shown.
The distance that can still be
traveled with the fuel reserve
depends on the riding style (on
the consumption) and on the fuel
quantity that was still available at
the time of switch-on.
The odometer for the fuel
reserve is reset when the fuel
quantity after refueling is greater
than the fuel reserve.
