WARNING
Irregular engine operation or
engine shutdown due to lack
of fuel
Risk of accident, damage to
catalytic converter
Do not run the fuel tank dry.
Possible cause:
The fuel tank contains no more
than the reserve quantity of
fuel.
Reserve fuel
approx. 3.5 l
Refuelling ( 165).
Fuel reserve
The fuel quantity remaining in
the fuel tank once the fuel re-
serve indicator light switches
on depends on the riding dy-
namics. The more the fuel
moves around in the fluid tank
(caused by frequent changes
in lean angle, frequent braking
and accelerating), the harder it
is to determine the fuel reserve.
For this reason, it is not pos-
sible to accurately state the fuel
reserve volume.
The range is displayed
automatically once the
fuel warning light is switched
on.
The distance that can still be
travelled using the reserve
quantity depends on the style
of riding (consumption) and the
amount of fuel remaining at
the time the light came on (see
explanation above).
After a refuelling stop, the dis-
tance counter for reserve fuel
is reset if the amount of fuel in
the tank is greater than the re-
serve quantity.
Service-due indicator
When the next service is
due within a month, the
wording
SERVT!
1 and
the service due date 2 are
displayed. This information
appears briefly after the Pre-
Ride-Check completes.
