Start-up button (01_17)
To start the engine, pull either brake lever and then press the starter button «R».
The vehicle is equipped with special starter procedure management. The starter motor
remains active until the engine starts even if switch «R» is released.
Keep one of the two brakes operated (front or rear) so as to not interrupt the starter
procedure.
The throttle grip must remain in the minimum position, because any other position
inhibits the vehicle starter.
The starter motor will remain active for a maximum of 5 consecutive seconds.
WARNING
IF THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH THE SUSPENSION LOCKING DEVICE, IT
WILL START, BUT WILL REMAIN (ALSO BY USING THE THROTTLE GRIP) IDLE
IF THE RIDER IS NOT SEATED ON THE SADDLE IN RIDING POSITION.
