Starting The Engine - Swm Sm 650 R 2016 Handbuch

STARTING THE ENGINE

With cold engine, i.e., after the motorcycle has not
been used for a while or in low ambient tempera-
tures, operate in the following manner:
1) Place ignition key (1) to ON position (the buzz that
you hear when you turn the key to ON is caused
by the fuel pump which puts the feeding system
under pressure);
2) pull the clutch lever (3);
3) pull the starter lever (2);
4) shift gear pedal (4) to neutral position then re-
lease the clutch control level;
5) Check that the button (5) is in the out position
and press it, followed by the start button (6).
Bring the starter lever (2) back to its original po-
sition as soon as the motor can idle. When start-
ing with an already warmed up engine DO NOT
USE the starter. When a cold engine has just been
started, do not increase revs, to ensure an ad-
equate oil warm-up and circulation.
Note*:
A safety switch is set on the clutch lever support.
This switch allows you to ONLY start the engine
with the gearbox idle, or with the gear engaged and
the clutch lever pulled.
