Light control

Low / High beam
This function allows you to reduce current consumption from the battery, by managing headlight switching-
on and off.
Upon Key-On, low and high beams remain off (OFF).
By starting the engine, the low beam will be automatically activated; from now on, the "standard" operation
will become active, i.e. it will be possible to switch from low to high beam by pressing button (3) in position
(V) or use the "FLASH" function by pressing button (3) in position (O). If engine is not started upon key-on,
it is anyway possible to switch the lights on by pushing the button on the LH high/low beam switch: button
(3) in position (V).
The low beam lights are turned on the first time it is pressed; from this moment, the same button can be
used to switch on (and off) the high beam light: if the engine is not started within 60 seconds, the low
beam and high beam that were turned on will turn off. If the headlight was turned on before starting the
engine with the procedure described above, the headlight will turn off automatically when starting the
vehicle and will turn ON again when the engine has been completely started.
Turn indicators
Turn indicators are automatically controlled by the instrument panel.
After activating one of the two turn indicators, user can disable them using button
3, on the left
(see Fig 1)
switch.
If the turn indicator is not reset manually, the instrument panel will automatically switch it off after the
motorcycle has travelled 500 m (0.3 miles) from when the turn indicator was activated. The counter for the
distance travelled for automatic deactivation is only activated at speeds below 80 km/h (50 mph).
If the calculation of the distance for automatic deactivation is activated and then the motorcycle exceeds a
speed of 80 km/h (50 mph), the calculation will be interrupted and will restart when the speed returns
below the indicated threshold.

Hazard function

The "Hazard" function turns all four turn indicators on at the same time to signal an emergency condition.
The "Hazard" function is activated by taking button (3) to position (6) for 3 seconds. Activation is only
possible when motorcycle is ON (i.e. when key is turned to "ON" while engine status does not matter).
When the "Hazard" function is active, all four turn indicators blink at the same time as well as warning
lights (7) on the instrument panel. The "Hazard" function can be disabled both with motorcycle on (key set
to "ON") - by taking button (3) to position (6) or by taking button (3) to its central position - and with
motorcycle off (key set to OFF) by taking button (3) to position (6).
After activating the "Hazard" function, if motorcycle is switched OFF (key set to OFF), the function will stay
active until manually disabled by user or it will be automatically disabled after 120 minutes (2 hours) to
save battery charge.
