tral position. The neutral indicator
light should come on. If not, ask a

close the throttle. (See page 4-12.)

start switch or by pushing the kick-
starter lever down.
NOTICE
ECA17800
If the starter motor will not turn when
pushing the start switch, stop push-
ing it immediately and start the en-
gine by pushing the kickstarter lever
down in order to avoid the load on
the motor.
TIP
Use the kickstarter in a condition with
ambient temperature below –5
C (40
F) or high altitude.
If the engine fails to start when us-
ing the start switch, release it, wait
a few seconds, and then try again.
Each starting attempt should be as
short as possible to preserve the
battery. Do not crank the engine
more than 10 seconds on any one
attempt. If the engine does not
start with the starter motor, try us-
ing the kickstarter.
5. When the engine is warm, turn the
starter off.
TIP
The engine is warm when it responds
quickly to the throttle with the starter
turned off.

Starting a warm engine
Follow the same procedure as for start-
ing a cold engine with the exception
that the starter is not required when the
engine is warm.
TIP
If the engine does not start at high
altitude, start the engine with the
throttle grip opened by one degree
or two degrees.
The mark on the throttle housing
indicates five degrees. Use the
mark for your reference when
opening the throttle grip.
