empties down to the fuel reserve of approx. 1.5 liters.
RES The reserve, approximately 1.5 liters, cannot be tapped until the twist
grip is turned to the RES position. Fill the tank as soon as possible and
remember to turn the twist grip back to the ON position so that you
will have backup fuel next time, too.
