Operating Instructions

182 TECHNOLOGY IN DETAIL
If the gas is shut off (throt-
tle position <5%) during the
intervention of the Dynamic
Brake Control, the engine
torque required by the ABS
brake system will be restored.
If the emergency braking is
stopped and the throttle grip
is still under actuation, the
Dynamic Brake Control will
reduce the engine torque as
required by the rider in a con-
trolled manner.
TIRE PRESSURE CONTROL
(RDC)
with tire pressure monitor
(TPM)
OE
Function
A sensor located in each tire
monitors the air temperature
and the tire pressure and trans-
mits this information to the
control unit.
The sensors are equipped with
a centrifugal controller, which
does not enable the transmis-
sion of the measured values
until the minimum speed is ex-
ceeded for the first time.
Minimum speed for the
transmission of the RDC
measured values:
min 19 mph (min 30 km/h)
Before initial reception of the
tire pressure, -- is shown in
the display for each tire. The
sensors continue to transmit
the measured readings for
some time after the vehicle
comes to a stop.
Duration of measured
data transmission after
motorcycle is stationary:
min 15 min
If an RDC control unit is in-
stalled but the wheels have no
sensors, a fault memory entry is
generated.
Tire inflation pressure ranges
The RDC control unit distin-
guishes between three inflation
pressure ranges matched to
the motorcycle:
Tire pressure within the per-
missible tolerance.
Tire pressure at the limits of
the permissible tolerance.
Tire pressure outside the per-
missible tolerance.
Temperature compensation
The tire pressure is tempera-
ture dependent, i.e. it increases
or decreases together with the
tire air temperature. The tire
temperature is dependent on
the outside temperature, the
riding style and the length of
the journey.
