Throttle
The electronic throttle controls the air supply to the engine by means of an integrated
electric motor. The use of a mechanical operator such as throttle cable is therefore
not required.

•
Electronic throttle
•
Redundant design by using 2 potentiometers
Throttle Setting
There is no mechanical connection between the throttle and accelerator pedal. The
electrical signal from the accelerator pedal is converted by an electric servo-motor in
the throttle into an opening angle.
A calibration of the throttle is not required. After switching on the ignition, the throttle
opens and closes automatically to determine its limits.
After switching on the ignition the starter button is
deactivated for 3 seconds as the throttle blade is going
through its calibration cycle.
