ENGINE START
With cold engine, as after a prolonged inactivity of the
motorcycle or in presence of a low external temperature,
proceed as follows:
1) pull knob (1) towards the outside;
2) pull clutch lever (2) and hold it in place;
3) shift gear pedal (3) to neutral position;
4) press start button (4);
5) release the clutch lever (2);
6) take starter knob (1) back to its initial position as soon as
engine stays idle.
When a cold engine has just been started, do not increase
revs, to ensure an adequate oil warm-up and circulation.
IMPORTANT
NEVER START WITH DISCONNECTED BATTERY.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT OPERATE THE THROTTLE CONTROL WHILE
STARTING-UP.
IMPORTANT NOTE IN CASE OF COLD STARTS AT
LOW TEMPERATURES
It is recommended to briefly warm-up the engine at idle until,
after having disengaged the starter, there is a normal response
from the engine when opening the throttle.
In this way the oil can reach all the surfaces needing lubrication
and the coolant will reach the necessary temperature for correct
engine function.Avoid overheating the engine.
IMPORTANT
Never accelerate the engine after a cold start.
WARNING*: Exhaust contains poisonous car
-
bon monoxide gas. Never run the engine in a
closed garage or in a confined area.
