Anti-lock braking system (ABS)*
ABS is out of action:
d Warning:
If ABS is not operational, as
shown by warning lights 1 and
2, the safety reserves
afforded by ABS are not at the
rider's disposal until the fault
has been rectified.
There is a risk of dropping the
machine if the brakes are
applied too hard and the front
wheel locks or the rear wheel
lifts clear of the ground as a
result of a high level of tyre
adhesion.
Have the defect rectified im-
mediately by a specialist
workshop, preferably an au-
thorised BMW dealer. ABS is out of action:
–
at speeds below 6 km/h
(3 mph) (or 12 km/h (6 mph) if
handbrake lever was pulled
beforehand)
– when the ignition is switched
off
– if the battery is flat or has a
fault (indicated by ABS warn-
ing lights coming on)
– if there is an ABS fault (
b80)
The brakes remain fully
operational, though without
the reserves of safety
afforded by ABS.
