KTM 690 Enduro R User Manual

8 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 52
– If the engine stalls (e.g. at a crossroads), just pull the clutch lever and press the elec-
tric starter button. You do not have to shift into neutral.
– Switch off the engine if running at idle or 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.
– Stop immediately if the FI warning lamp (MIL) lights up during a trip. When you shift to
neutral, the FI warning lamp (MIL) starts to flash.
Info
From the flash rhythm you can deduce a two-digit number, the so-called blink
code. The blink code tells you which component is affected by a malfunction.
8.5 Applying the brakes
Warning
Danger of accidents Reduced braking efficiency due to a wet or dirty brake system.
– Clean or dry a dirty or wet brake system by riding and braking gently.
Warning
Danger of accidents Reduced braking efficiency caused by spongy pressure point of front or rear brake.
– Check the brake system and do not continue riding. (Your authorized KTM workshop will be glad to help.)
Warning
Danger of accidents Failure of brake system.
– If the foot brake lever is not released, the brake linings drag continuously. The rear brake may fail due to overheating. Take your
foot off the foot brake lever when you are not braking.
