Residual braking function
active
General warning light
lights up red.
ABS warning light flash-
es four times per sec-
ond.
Without the ABS func-
tion, the wheels could
lock during very hard brak-
ing. without servo-assisted
brakes, considerably greater
force is required to brake.
The altered braking behavior
can lead to accidents.
Avoid hard braking whenev-
er possible. Brake early, as
increased braking force is re-
quired.
Only the residual braking
function is available in at least
one brake circuit.
You can continue to ride.
However, bear in mind that
neither the ABS function nor
the brake booster is avail-
able.
Have the fault rectified as
soon as possible by a spe-
cialized workshop, prefer-
ably an authorized BMW
motorcycle retailer.
Brake fluid level in wheel
brake circuit too low
General warning light
flashes red once per
second.
ABS warning light flash-
es once per second.
The ABS wheel brake
circuit is a closed sys-
tem; you cannot check the
fluid level in this circuit at the
brake-fluid reservoirs.
Triggers for the warning
"Brake fluid level too low"
can be extremely worn brake
pads etc.
Checking front brake pad
thickness (
101)
Checking brake pad thick-
ness at rear (
102)
Worn brake pads can
considerably increase
the braking distance, and
therefore lead to accidents.
Brake early.
Worn brake pads can
damage the brake disks.
Think well ahead and brake
carefully; avoid severe brak-
ing.
Have worn brake pads re-
placed as soon as possible
by a specialized workshop,
preferably an authorized
BMW motorcycle retailer.
If the brake pad thickness is
sufficient, the brake system
must be checked for proper
operation and leaks.
