Tripmeter 1 (Trip I)
Tripmeter 2 (Trip II)Resetting tripmeterSwitch on the ignition.
Select the desired tripmeter.
Press and hold down
button 1until the reading
changes.
The tripmeter is reset to
zero.
Residual rangeThe residual-range readout 1
indicates how far you can ride
with the fuel remaining in the
tank. On a motorcycle not
equipped with an on-board
computer, this reading is not
displayed until fuel level has
dropped to reserve. This dis-
tance is calculated on the
basis of fuel level and average
consumption.
When you refuel, the increase
in fuel level is not registered
unless several litres are ad- ded to the fuel already in the
tank.
The residual range is
only an approximate
reading. Consequently, BMW
Motorrad recommends that
you should not try to use the
full residual range before
refuelling.
ClockSet the clock
Attempting to set the
clock while riding the
motorcycle can lead to ac-
cidents.
Set the clock only when the
motorcycle is stationary.
Switch on the ignition.

speed appears in the
display.
Press and hold down the
INFO button until the read-
ing changes ("RESET").
The display shows

Calculating average
consumptionAverage consumption 1is
calculated by dividing the dis-
tance covered since the last
RESET by the corresponding
amount of fuel used.
Reset average

ton 1until the average fuel
consumption appears in the
display.
Press and hold down the

RangeThe description of the
residual-range function
( 42) also covers the
residual-range readout.
You can also view range1
before the fuel level drops
to reserve. A special
average-consumption figure
is used to calculate range;
this figure is not necessarily
the same as the value you
can call up for viewing on the
display. The calculated range
is only an approximate
reading. Consequently, BMW
Motorrad recommends that
you should not try to use the
full range before refuelling.
Oil levelOil-level indicator 1gives you
an indication of the engine oil
level.
The preconditions for the oil
level check are as follows: Engine idling (for at least 10
seconds).
Engine at operating temper-
ature.
Side stand retracted.
The readings mean:
OK
: Oil level is correct.
CHECK
: Check the oil level.
---
: Oil level cannot be
measured (conditions as
stated above not satisfied).
The most recently measured
level is displayed for 5
seconds when you next
switch on the ignition.
The oil sensor might be
defective if the "Check
oil level" message reappears
even though the oil level in
the oil sight glass is correct.
In this case, consult your

Tyre pressure control
RDC
OE
FunctionA sensor integrated into each
tyre measures the air tem-
perature and the air pressure
inside the tyre and transmits
this information to the control
unit.
Each sensor has a
centrifugal-force tripswitch
that does not enable
transmission of the measured
values until the motorcycle
has accelerated to about
30 km/h. The display shows--
for each tyre until the
tyre-pressure signal is
received for the first time. The
sensors continue to transmit
the measured-value signals
for approximately 15 minutes
after the motorcycle comes to
a stop. The control unit can
administrate four sensors, so
two different sets of wheels
with RDC sensors can be
alternated on the motorcycle.
An error message is issued
if wheels without sensors
are fitted to a motorcycle
equipped with an RDC control
unit.
Temperature
compensationThe tyre-pressure readings
shown by the multifunction
display are temperature-
compensated; the reference
tyre temperature for these
readings is always 20 °C.
The air lines available to
the public in petrol stations
and motorway service areas
almost invariably show
temperature-dependent
tyre pressures, so in most
instances these gauge
