DEN BY LAW, AND RENDERS THE VEHICLE NO LONGER CONFORMING TO THE APPROVED TYPE AND DANGEROUS FOR RIDING. CAUTION DO NOT ADJUST THE MIRRORS WHILE DRIVING. THIS COULD CAUSE YOU TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. WARNING IN ORDER TO PREVENT ANY ACCIDENTS RIDE VERY CAREFULLY AFTER ADDING ACCESSORIES AND WHILE CARRYING LUGGAGE.
Engine oil level (03_01) In four-stroke engines, the engine oil is used to lubricate the timing elements, the bench bearings and the head-engine block-piston assembly. An insufficient quantity of oil can cause serious damage to the engine. In all four-stroke engines, a loss of efficiency in oil performance and certain consumption should be considered normal.
Engine oil top-up (03_03) The oil should be topped up after having checked the level and in any case by adding oil without ever exceeding the MAX. level. Check and top up engine oil, if needed, according to the scheduled maintenance table at an Authorised Service Centre. 03_03 Warning light (insufficient oil pressure) (03_04) The vehicle is equipped with a warning light that comes on when the key is turned to...
CAUTION RUNNING THE ENGINE WITH INSUFFICIENT LUBRICATION OR WITH INADE- QUATE LUBRICANTS ACCELERATES THE WEAR AND TEAR OF THE MOVING PARTS AND CAN CAUSE IRREPARABLE DAMAGE. TOPPING UP THE ENGINE WITH AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL MAY CAUSE MALFUNCTION AND/OR A DROP IN PERFORMANCE OF THE VEHICLE. USING OILS OTHER THAN THOSE RECOMMENDED CAN SHORTEN THE LIFE OF THE ENGINE.
Page 67
FOR THE CONTROLS OF THE HUB OIL LEVEL THAT ARE NOT PREDETER- MINED BY THE SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE TABLE, OPERATE AS DESCRI- BED. LEVEL CHECK - Park the vehicle on level ground and centre stand. - Undo the screw «A» and by inserting punch, check the presence of oil that must be below the lower edge of the loading hole.
Tyres (03_06) Periodically check the inflation pressure of each tyre (when cold). Tyres are fitted with wear indicators; tyres should be replaced as soon as these indi- cators become visible on the tyre tread. Also check that the tyres do not show signs of splitting at the sides or irregular tread wear;...
Rear tyre pressure (with 2.0 bar (2.2 bar) passenger) Spark plug dismantlement (03_07, 03_08, 03_09) Removal In order to inspect the spark plug, follow the operation described when the engine is cold: - Slide off the spark plug inspection cover «A» by unscrewing the screw «B». - Slide off the spark plug tube «C».
USING IGNITION ELECTRONIC CENTRAL UNITS OR SPARK PLUGS OTHER THAN THE TYPES PRESCRIBED (SEE «TECHNICAL DATA» SECTION) CAN CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. CAUTION PROCEED WITH CAUTION. DO NOT DAMAGE THE TABS AND/OR THEIR CORRESPONDING SLOTS. HAN- 03_09 DLE THE PLASTIC AND PAINTED COMPONENTS WITH CARE, DO NOT SCRATCH OR IMPAIR THEM.
Checking the brake oil level (03_11) Both front and rear brake fluid tanks are equipped with a warning light «A» of trans- parent material; the quantity of fluid contained indicates the fluid level in the relative tank.

Use of a new battery (03_14) To install a new battery: - Place the battery in its housing. - Connect the positive pole «+» first and then the negative pole «-». - Position the fixing bracket and the battery cover, operating in reverse order than described in the «Battery»...
Long periods of inactivity (03_15) If the vehicle is not used for a long time, the performance of the battery will deteriorate. This is the result of the natural phenomenon of battery discharging, and may be due to residual absorption by vehicle components with constant power consumption. The deterioration of the battery's performance is also the result of environmental conditions and how clean the terminals are.
WARNING USED BATTERIES ARE HARMFUL FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT IN COMPLIANCE WITH REGULA- TIONS IN FORCE. Fuses (03_16, 03_17, 03_18, 03_19) The electrical system has 2 main fuses located inside the battery compartment, and 6 secondary fuses located inside the front case.

CAUTION DO NOT PULL THE ELECTRICAL CABLES WHEN TAKING OUT THE BULB HOLDER. 03_34 Rear-view mirrors (03_35, 03_36) The mirrors can be set to the desired position by adjusting the mirror frame. 03_35 To remove the rear view mirror, lift the rubber protection, unscrew the lock nut «A» slightly to unlock the stem.
CAUTION PAY ATTENTION TO THE THREAD TYPE OF THE MIRRORS: THE RIGHT MIR- ROR HAS A CLOCKWISE THREAD, WHILE THE LEFT MIRROR HAS AN ANTI- CLOCKWISE THREAD. Front disc brake (03_37) The brake disc and pad wear is automatically compensated, therefore it has no effect on the functioning of the front and rear brakes.
THE PLUNGERS TO SETTLE AND THE LEVER STROKE TO BE SET TO THE CORRECT POSITION. CAUTION THE PRESENCE OF SAND, MUD, SNOW MIXED WITH SALT, ETC. ON THE ROAD, CAN DRASTICALLY REDUCE THE LIFE OF THE BRAKE PADS. IN OR- DER TO AVOID THIS, WE RECOMMEND WASHING THE VEHICLE FREQUENTLY WHEN RIDING IN THESE ROAD CONDITIONS.
Puncture (03_39) The vehicle is equipped with Tubeless tyres (without inner tube). In the event of a puncture, Tubeless tyres - unlike tyres with inner tubes - go flat very slowly, resulting in a greater steering safety. In the case of puncture, you can make an emergency repair using an inflation canister.
Cleaning the vehicle (03_41, 03_42) Use a low pressure jet of water to soften the caked dirt and mud deposited on the painted surfaces. Once softened, sponge off mud and dirt using a car body sponge soaked in a car body shampoo and water solution (2-4% of car shampoo in water). Then rinse with abundant water, and dry with a chamois cloth.
