10 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS
42
10.3 Starting off
Info
When you are riding, the side stand must be folded up and secured with the rubber strap.
– First familiarize yourself with the new riding and handling characteristic of this vehicle.
– Turn the throttle grip carefully. The absence of engine noise belies the actual power of the vehicle.
10.4 Recuperation
H02598-01
In riding mode 1 (Economy) ( p. 24), the Powerpack HV is
charged by the electric motor when the throttle grip is fully closed
in overrun.
Due to the recuperation function, there is an increased motor
braking effect in riding mode 1.
The recuperation effect increases with the motor speed.
Info
The recuperation function is not available in the riding
mode 2and 3.
10.5 Applying the brakes
Warning
Danger of accidents Excessively forceful application of the brakes blocks the wheels.
– Adjust application of the brakes to the respective riding situation and riding surface conditions.
Warning
Danger of accidents A spongy pressure point on the front or rear brake reduces braking efficiency.
– Check the brake system and do not continue riding until the problem is eliminated. (Your authorized
KTM workshop will be glad to help.)
Warning
Danger of accidents Moisture and dirt impair the brake system.
– Brake carefully several times to dry out and remove dirt from the brake linings and the brake discs.
Info
The rear brake lever is located on the left side of the handlebar.
– When braking, release the throttle and apply the front and rear brakes at the same time.
– On sandy, wet, or slippery surfaces, use mostly the rear brake if possible.
– Try to complete the braking procedure before riding into a curve.
