SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Risk of carbon monoxide poisoning

Exhaust fumes from internal combustion engines contain carbon monoxide.

Breathing in the exhaust fumes can be lethal!

You should therefore consider the following:

• Never start the moped in a closed area which lacks good ventilation.

• Never breathe in the exhaust fumes.

• Always ensure that the exhaust pipe is free of obstruction.

Handling and fi lling up with fuel - fi re risk

• Never fi ll the moped up with fuel when the engine is running.

• Never overfi ll the tank.

• If a spillage does arise when fi lling up with petrol, wipe away the petrol carefully

   and then wait 5-10 minutes until any petrol that remains has evaporated.

• Do not fi ll up in the proximity of fi re.

• Never use a petrol-driven moped in an environment that is explosive or fl ammable.

• If there is a leakage in the fuel line, tank or any other part of the fuel system,

   the engine should be stopped immediately and the fault should be rectifi ed

   immediately.

• Avoid breathing in petrol fumes.

• Avoid skin contact with petrol.

Work with the moped’s battery

When working on the moped’s battery, special safety precautions must be taken.
