General Information
Fuel Gauge
1. Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the amount of fuel
in the tank.
With the ignition switched on, the number of
bars shown in the display indicates the level
of fuel.
When the fuel tank is full all 12 bars are
displayed and when empty, no bars are
displayed. Other gauge markings indicate
intermediate fuel levels between full and
empty.
When 2 bars are displayed the low fuel
warning light will illuminate. This indicates
there are approximately 4.5 litres of fuel
remaining in the tank and you should refuel
at the earliest opportunity. If a trip meter
display is visible, the range to empty display
can be selected by pressing and releasing
button 'B' until it is visible.
After refuelling, the fuel gauge and range to
empty information will be updated only while
riding the motorcycle. Depending on the
riding style, updating could take up to five
minutes.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS)
Note:
• TPMS is an accessory option on
Tiger 800 models only. It is not
available on Tiger 800XC models.
Function
Tyre pressure sensors are fitted to the front
and rear wheels. These sensors measure the
air pressure inside the tyre and transmit
pressure data to the instruments. These
sensors will not transmit the data until the
motorcycle is travelling at a speed greater
than 12 mph (20 km). Two dashes will be
visible in the display area until the tyre
pressure signal is received.

Warning
The daily check of tyre pressures must not
be excluded because of the fitment of the
TPMS. Check the tyre pressure when the
tyres are cold and using an accurate tyre
pressure gauge (see page
100 ).
Use of the TPMS system to set inflation
pressures may lead to incorrect tyre
pressures leading to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
