–
Shift into a higher gear when conditions allow (incline, road
situation, etc.).
–
Release the throttle while simultaneously pulling the clutch
lever, shift into the next gear, release the clutch lever, and
open the throttle.
Info
You can see the positions of the 6 forward gears in
the figure. The neutral or idle position is between the
first and second gears. First gear is used for starting
off or for steep inclines.
The operating temperature is reached when 5 bars of
the temperature indicator light up.
–
After reaching maximum speed by fully opening the throt-
tle grip, turn the throttle back so it is ¾ open. This will barely
reduce the speed, but fuel consumption will be considerably
lower.
–
Only accelerate up to a speed suitable for the road surface
and weather conditions. Particularly in bends, do not shift,
and accelerate very carefully.
–
Brake if necessary and close the throttle at the same time in
order to shift down.
–
Pull clutch lever and shift into a lower gear, release the clutch
lever slowly, and open the throttle or shift again.
–
If the engine stalls (e.g., at a crossroads), just pull clutch lever
and press the start button/emergency OFF switch into the
lower position . The transmission must not be shifted into
neutral.
–
Switch off the engine if running at idle speed or stationary for
a long time.
–
If the oil pressure warning lamp
lights up during a trip, stop
immediately and switch off the engine. Contact an authorized
Husqvarna Motorcycles workshop.
–
If the malfunction indicator lamp
lights up during a trip,
please contact an authorized Husqvarna Motorcycles work-
shop as soon as possible.
–
If the general warning lamp
lights up during a trip, the dis-
play shows a message.
Info
Very important messages are stored in the
Warning
menu.
–
If the ice warning appears in the combination instrument, the
roads may be icy. Adjust your speed to the road conditions.
