OPERATION
Starting the engine
Always follow the proper starting procedure described here
and on the following pages.
NOTE: Your scooter is equipped with a side stand igni-
tion cut-off system. The engine cannot be started if the
side stand is down. A running engine will shut off if the
side stand is lowered.
To protect the catalytic converter in your scooter's ex-
haust system, avoid idling for extending periods of time
and do not use leaded gasoline.
Your scooter's exhaust emits poisonous carbon mon-
oxide gas. High levels of carbon monoxide can collect
rapidly in enclosed areas such as a garage. Do not run
the scooter's engine with the garage door closed. Even
with the door open, run the engine only long enough
to move your scooter out of the garage.
To prevent damage to the starter motor, do not operate
the starter motor for more than five seconds at a time. If
the scooter fails to start immediately, check the fuel level
and the battery condition, and allow the starter motor to
cool before attempting to start the engine again.
1. Place your scooter on its center stand and put the side
stand up.
2. Lock the rear wheel by engaging the parking brake (on
Xciting 500i and 500Ri models

).

Once the scooter starts the rear wheel may spin. To
avoid injury, keep your body and clothing away from
the rear wheel.
Set the parking brake on Xciting 500i and 500Ri mod-
els with the scooter on the center stand so the rear
wheel does not spin during starting.
