        BPW Brake Monitor
        With the BPW Brake Monitor retrofit kit for our disc
        brakes, you can check your vehicle from the outside at
        any time to see if the wear limit has been reached.
        As soon as only one of the brake pads has worn down by
        approx. 80% the yellow “WARNING” LED on the BPW
        Brake Monitor starts fl ashing.
        Once the minimum pad thickness of 2 mm has been
        reached, the “SERVICE” indicator changes to red, while
        the green and yellow LEDs fl ash alternately.
        The red SERVICE indicator remains visible even if you
        have parked the vehicle and there is no electrical power
        supply to the trailer.
        This means you can still tell if the wear limit has been   Warning:
        reached on at least one brake pad.                     At least one brake pad is approx. 80% worn down!
        If this is the case, you should change the brake pads as   Service:
        soon as possible.
                                                               At least one brake pad as reached the
                                                               minimum pad thickness of approx. 2 mm.
                                                               Have the pads replaced immediately!
