However, this light should switch off once the engine has been started.
If the light comes on during braking, at idling speed or while turning a corner,
it is necessary to check the oil level and top-up if required. If after having topped-
up the oil, the warning light still comes on while braking, at idle speed or while
turning a corner, it will be necessary to take your vehicle to an Authorised Serv-
ice Centre.
Engine oil change (03_04, 03_05)
The oil and the filter must be changed as indicated in the scheduled maintenance table
at an
Authorised Service Centre . The engine should be emptied by draining the oil
via the drainage tap « B » of the mesh filter on the transmission side. In order to facilitate
oil drainage, loosen the cap/dipstick « A ». Unscrew and remove the oil cartridge filter
« C ». Install a new oil filter taking care to lubricate the sealing O-rings with engine oil.
Since a certain quantity of oil still remains in the circuit, add approximately 1500 cm³
of oil through cap «
A ». Then start up the scooter, leave it running for a few minutes
and switch it off: after five minutes, check the level and if necessary, top-up without
exceeding the MAX. level . The cartridge filter must be replaced at every oil change.
For top-ups and oil changes, use new oil of the recommended type.
CAUTION
RUNNING THE ENGINE WITH INSUFFICIENT LUBRICATION OR WITH INADE-
QUATE LUBRICANTS ACCELERATES THE WEAR AND TEAR OF THE MOVING
PARTS AND CAN CAUSE IRRETRIEVABLE DAMAGE.
TOPPING UP THE ENGINE WITH AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL MAY CAUSE
MALFUNCTION AND/OR A DROP IN PERFORMANCE OF THE VEHICLE.
USING OILS OTHER THAN THOSE RECOMMENDED CAN SHORTEN THE LIFE
OF THE ENGINE.
