Pre-Operating Checks
BRAKE PEDAL
Check for correct brake pedal free play. If the brake pedal free play is incorrect,
have a dealer adjust it. Check the operation of the brake pedal. It should move
smoothly and three should be a firm feeling when the brake is applied. If not, have
the vehicle inspected by a dealer.
Brake Fluid Level
Check the brake fluid level. Add fluid if necessary.
Recommended Brake Fluid: DOT 4
Brake Fluid Leakage
Check to see if any brake fluid is leaking out of the pipe joints or the brake
fluid reservoir. Apply the brakes firmly for one minute. IF there is any leakage,
have the vehicle inspected by a dealer.
Brake Operation
Test the brakes at slow speed after starting out to make sure they are
working properly. If the brakes do not provide proper braking performance,
inspect the brake system.
! WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD:
Driving with improperly operating brakes.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN:
You could lose braking ability, which could lead to an accident.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD:
Always check the brakes at the start of every ride. Do not operate the vehicle
if you find any problem with the brakes. If a problem cannot be corrected
by the adjustment procedures provided in this manual, have the vehicle
inspected by a dealer.
FUEL
Make sure there is sufficient gasoline in the tank.
Recommended Fuel: Unleaded Gasoline ONLY
Fuel Tank Capacity: 10L or 2.6 US Gallon
Your engine has been designed to use regular unleaded gasoline with a pump
octane number of ([R+M]/2) 86 or higher, or research octane number of 91 or
higher. If knocking or pinging occurs, use a different brand of gasoline or premium
unleaded fuel. Unleaded fuel will give you longer spark plug life and reduced
maintenance cost.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Be careful not to spill fuel, especially on the engine
or exhaust pipe. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately. Be sure the fuel tank cap
is closed securely.
! WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD:
Improper case when refueling.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN:
Fuel can spill, which can cause a fire and severe injury.
Fuel expands when it heats up. If the fuel tank is overfilled, fuel could spill put
due to heat from the engine or the sun.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD:
ENGINE OIL
Make sure the engine oil is at the specified level. Add oil as necessary.
CAUTION:
Make sure that no foreign material enters the crankcase.
ACCELERATOR PEDAL
Check to see that the accelerator pedal operates correctly. It must operate
smoothly and fully spring back to the idle position when released. Have a dealer
repair as necessary for the proper operation.
