WARNING
Do not use the vehicle if the lights are
not functioning properly.
Do not use the vehicle if the headlight is
adjusted incorrectly. This could tempo-
rarily blind oncoming cars, and also re-
duce the rider’s ability to see any obsta-
cle along the road while riding at night.
It is always advisable to reduce speed
when riding during the night, in such a
way as to have the time necessary to
avoid any obstacle and to adapt to the
poorer visibility that inevitably results
from darkness. Failure to observe this
warning can cause you to collide with
another object, with consequent risk of
serious injury or even death.
NOTE
The procedure described here is
in compliance with the Italian standard that
establishes the maximum height of the
headlight beam.
For vehicles used in other countries, you
must conform with the local regulations.
To rapidly check the correct direction of the
beam, place the vehicle on flat ground,
32.81 ft (10 m) away from a wall.
Turn on the low beam, sit on the vehicle
and make sure that the beam projected on
the wall is slightly under the horizontal line
of the headlight (about 9/10th of the total
height).
To adjust the headlight beam:
◆
Adjust screw (1) by means of a screw-
driver.
By SCREWING IT clockwise you adjust
the beam higher.
By UNSCREWING IT counterclockwise
you adjust the beam lower.
