Starting up the engine (02_04)
The vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission system with a speed variator
and centrifugal clutch. For this reason, the throttle must be slightly untwisted while the
engine is being started; to start-off from stationary position, progressively twist the
throttle grip.
The vehicle is equipped with a fuel pump and a starter that switch on automatically as
soon as the engine is started.
In order to start the engine, it is necessary to pull either the rear brake lever " B " or the
front brake lever " C ", before pressing the starting button, " A ", so as to disengage the
safety switches.
Proceed as follows:
1: Put the scooter on its stand " E "; check that the rear wheel is off the ground.
2: Keep the throttle closed.
3: Insert the key into the ignition switch, " D ", and turn to the ON position.
4: Push the starter button « A » after pulling the rear brake lever « B» or the front brake
lever « C ».
CAUTION
DO NOT CARRY OUT THESE OPERATIONS IN CLOSED AREAS SINCE EX-
HAUST GASES ARE TOXIC.
WARNING
THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION MAKES THE REAR WHEEL TURN EVEN
WHEN THE THROTTLE IS SLIGHTLY TWISTED. RELEASE THE BRAKE CARE-
FULLY AFTER STARTING, AND THEN ACCELERATE GRADUALLY.
