Turn signal switch "< >>"
To signal a right-hand turn, push this
switch to the right. To signal a left-hand
turn, push this switch to the left. When
released, the switch returns to the cen-
ter position.
Since this model
is equipped with a
self-canceling system, the turn signal
lights will self-cancel after the motor-
cycle has traveled both about 150 m
(490 ft) and for approximately 15 sec-
onds. However, the turn signal lights
can
also be canceled
manually
by
pushing the switch in after it has re-
turned to the center position.
NOTE: SSS
The self-canceling system only oper-
ates when the motorcycle is moving, so
that the turn signal lights will not self-
cancel while you are stopped at an
intersection.
