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.
