urgent: Engine oil warning light at 830 miles

I just got the low engine oil warning light at 830 miles.....I then stopped the car as I was scared with the whole oil pump recall etc ( my car was not effected by the recall) and called the SA. He said to bring the car tomorrow morning and will top off the oil. He dint knew if its common for M5 to burn so much oil at just 830 miles. He was surprised that I have the warning light at 800+ miles.
I then checked the engine oil measurement via idrive and it shows just above minimun line. When I started the car again the warning went away.

Is this something normal ? Should I wait till 1200 miles and do the service. Pl advise. I feel I get more information here than my local dealers.

Thanks,
