Difficultstartup (02_06)
In the event of difficulties, it is possible to proceed as follows:
1. Wet engine. With the vehicle on its centre stand and its rear wheel lifted off the
ground, give full throttle and repeatedly press the start button for approx. 5 seconds
with 5 seconds pauses between each attempt. If the engine does not start after a few
attempts, let it rest for a few minutes and try again following the same procedure just
described. In any case do not keep the start button continuously pressed down for
more than 20" when trying to start up the engine.
2. Weak battery or inefficient starter motor. Rest the vehicle on its centre stand,
« E », and ensure the rear wheel is lifted off the ground; turn the key-switch, « E », onto
« ON » and operate the kick-starter, « F ».
3. Out of fuel. After refilling the fuel tank , start the vehicle using the start button,
« A », with the throttle at idle. If the vehicle still fails to start, please contact your nearest
Piaggio - Gilera Authorised Service Centre .
