The chock knob  is fitted on the left side of the frame.
Activating the choke function frees an opening through which the engine can draw
extra fuel. This gives a richer fuel-air mixture, which is needed for a cold start.
Info
If the engine is warm, the choke function must be deactivated.

• Choke function activated – The choke knob has been pulled out slightly and
turned.
