Brake system - with BMW Integral ABS
RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION
If the BMW Integral ABS devel-
ops a fault, a RESIDUAL BRAK-
ING FUNCTION only is available
in the brake circuits in question.
The RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION is the braking effi-
ciency without the hydraulic
servo assistance of the BMW
Integral ABS.
Under these circumstances,
therefore, you must apply CON-
SIDERABLY higher pressure to
the brake levers in question in
order to apply the brakes, and
lever travel is longer.
When the RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION is active, the ABS
function is unavailable in the
brake system in question.
When the RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION is active, the inte-
gral braking function is partially
or entirely unavailable.
d Warning:
When the RESIDUAL BRAK-
ING FUNCTION is active,
maintain a defensive riding
style and proceed immediate-
ly to the nearest specialist
workshop, preferably an au-
thorised BMW motorcycle
dealer.
L Note:
When the RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION for the front brake is
active, it is advisable to set ad-
juster A (
b47) of the hand-
brake lever to position 4.
The RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION is active under the
following circumstances:
– Ignition off
– Before and during self-diag- nosis (
b88)
– Fault in the BMW Integral ABS (
b91)
L Note:
When the RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION is active for both
brake circuits, the noise of the
pump is no longer audible when
you operate the brake levers.
