WARNING

Do not use the vehicle if the lights are
not functioning properly. 
Do not use the vehicle if the headlight is
adjusted incorrectly. This could tempo-
rarily blind oncoming cars, and also re-
duce the rider’s ability to see any obsta-
cle along the road while riding at night.
It is always advisable to reduce speed
when riding during the night, in such a
way  as  to  have  the  time  necessary  to
avoid any obstacle and to adapt to the
poorer visibility that inevitably results
from darkness. Failure to observe this
warning  can cause you  to collide with
another object, with consequent risk of
serious injury or even death.

NOTE

 The procedure described here is

in compliance with the Italian standard that
establishes  the  maximum  height  of  the
headlight beam. 
For vehicles  used  in  other countries, you
must conform with the local regulations.

To rapidly check the correct direction of the
beam,  place  the  vehicle  on  flat  ground,

32.81 ft (10 m)

 away from a wall.

Turn on  the low  beam, sit on  the vehicle
and make sure that the beam projected on
the wall is slightly under the horizontal line
of the headlight (about 9/10th of the total
height).

To adjust the headlight beam:

Adjust  screw  (1)  using  a  phillips  screw-
driver.

By SCREWING IT clockwise, you adjust
the beam higher.

By UNSCREWING IT counterclockwise,
you adjust the beam lower.

a

WARNING

Make sure that the vertical adjustment
of the headlight beam is correct.
