BMW F 800 GT, Rider'S Manual

Page: 40 / 183

The 2 tip indicates that the fuel
tank is more than half full.
If the fuel gage drops to the
1/
2
mark 1 , the fuel tank is still half
full. Now, the fill level is exactly
displayed.
If the fuel reserve has been
reached, the low-fuel warning
light is switched on.
Fuel reserve
The fuel quantity that is in the
fuel tank when the low-fuel warn-
ing light switches on depends on
the riding dynamics: the more
substantially the fuel is moved in
the tank (as a result of frequently
changing lean angles, frequent
braking and acceleration), the
more difficult it becomes to de-
termine the fuel reserve. How-
ever, the fuel tank still contains at
least the fuel reserve specified on
the back cover.
After the low-fuel warning
light is switched on, the
distance ridden since this point in
time is indicated.
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 (see previ-
ous explanation).
The odometer for the fuel
reserve is reset when the fuel
quantity after refueling is greater
than the fuel reserve.
