2. For temperatures below -5°C/23°F or in conditions
with snow, a winter cover is available. Assemble the
winter cover on the starter housing. The winter cover
decreases the flow of cool air and keeps snow away
from the carburetor space.
CAUTION:
Remove the winter cover if
the temperature increases above -5°C/23°F.
Put the winter plug in in position 1 if the
temperature increases above 0°C/32°F. Risk
of too high engine temperature and damage
to the engine.
Heated handles (543 XPG)
On models with the designation "G", the front and
rear handles have electrical heating coils. A generator
supplies power to the heating coils.
Push the switch to engage the heat in the handles. The
heat is on when you can see the red mark on the switch.
Electrical carburetor heating (543 XPG)
Adjustment of the carburetor heating is done electrically
through a thermostat. This keeps the correct carburetor
temperature and prevents ice in the carburetor.
