RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 48
For example, if the engine stalls at a junction, just pull the clutch and press the electric
starter button. You do not need to shift into neutral.
Switch off the engine if you expect to be standing for a long time.
Avoid frequent and longer slipping of the clutch. This heats the engine oil, the engine
and the cooling system.
Ride with a lower engine speed instead of with a high engine speed and a slipping
clutch.
If the FIwarning lamp(MIL) starts to light up during the journey, stop immediately. If
you shift to neutral, theFIwarning lamp(MIL) begins to flash.
Info
From the flash rhythm, you can deduce a two-digit number, the so-called flash
code. The flash code tells you which component is affected by a fault.
