ENGINE IGNITION

C
OOL ENGINE
After having carried out the preliminary tests, pull the
clutch lever fully and press the start button "A".
When the engine is running, before re-positioning the
"CHOKE" control lever in running postion "2", let the
engine idle, with a low r.p.m., for a few seconds in the hot
season and for some minutes in the cold season.
WARNING
If the "green" warning light on the dashboard does
not come on when the ignition switch is enabled,
this means that a gear in the gearbox is engaged.
starting the engine in these conditions may be
dangerous; check that the gearbox is in the "neutral"
position before starting the engine.
E
NGINE WARM
The start-up procedures when the engine is warm are
the same as for a cool engine, except that it is not
necessary to place the "CHOKE" control lever in the start
position.
WARNING
The starter motor must not be activated for over
5 seconds; if the engine does not start, wait 10
seconds before trying to start it once again.
The start button must only be pressed when the
engine is not running.

the cold season.

ENGINE RUNNING

To shift gear, turn off the gas, pull the lever fully and
engage the next gear; gently let go of the clutch lever and
accelerate at the same time.
The gearbox shift pedal should be activated decisively
with your foot.
When shifting to a lower gear, gradually use the brakes
and gas turn off control on the handlebar. This will avoid
having the engine run at runaway speed rates when
the clutch control lever is released.
