NOTICE
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use of
leaded gasoline will cause severe da-
mage to internal engine parts, such as
the valves and piston rings, both to the
exhaust system including the catalytic
converter.
NOTE
• This mark identies the recommen-
ded fuel for this vehicle as specied
by European regulation (EN228).
• Check that gasoline nozzle has the
same identier when fueling.
Your Benelli engine has been designed
to use premium unleaded gasoline
with a research octane number of 95 or
higher. If knocking (or pinging) occurs,
use a gasoline of a dierent brand.
Use of unleaded fuel will extend spark
plug life and reduce maintenance costs.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol
containing ethanol and that containing
methanol. Gasohol containing ethanol
can be used if the ethanol content does
not exceed 10% (E10). Gasohol containing
methanol is not recommended by Benelli
because it can cause damage to the fuel
system or vehicle performance problems.
Catalytic converter
This model is equipped with a catalytic
converter in the exhaust system.
WARNING
The exhaust system reaches high tem-
peratures after vehicle operation. To
prevent the risk of re and burns:
• Do not park the vehicle near -
re-hazardous materials, such as
vegetation or easily combustible
materials.
• Park the vehicle out of the reach of
children, people or animals.
• Make sure the exhaust system has
cooled down before carrying out
maintenance work on it.
• Avoid keeping the engine at idle
speed for a prolonged time, in or-
der to avoid an excessive increase
in the temperature of the engine
itself.
