DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS »

Starting the engine
1 Switch on emergency OFF switch [1].
2 Switch on ignition (turn ignition key [2] into position ).
NOTE:
You will hear the operation of the fuel pump for approx. 2 seconds after switching on
the ignition. The instrument cluster function test is also performed at this time.
3 Switch transmission to idle (green indicator lamp N [3] lights up).
4 Do not accelerate; operate starter button [4]. Do not actuate the starter control until the
instrument cluster function test is completed.
5 Take the load off the side stand and fold the side stand all the way up.
Do not start the engine and allow it to idle in a closed room. Exhaust fumes are poison-
ous and can cause loss of consciousness and death. Always provide adequate ventila-
tion while the engine is running.
Never operate the motorcycle with a run-down battery or without the battery. This can
damage the electronic components or safety equipment in either caseand the motorcy-
cle will no longer be roadworthy.
If you accelerate while starting, the engine management will not inject any fuel and the
engine will not start. Do not accelerate while starting!
Maximum period for continuous starting: 5 seconds. Wait at least 5 seconds before try-
ing again.
Don’t ride your motorcycle with full load and don’t rev engine when cold. Because the
piston is warming up faster than the water cooled cylinder, it can cause engine damage.
Always let the engine warm up before and refrain from driving with full load until the
engine is warm.
