    2 SAFETY ADVICE Use definition – intended use This vehicle is designed and constructed to withstand the stresses and strains of regular racing if the maximum rider weight is not exceeded. Info Only operate this vehicle in closed-off areas remote from public road traffic. Only use the lithium-ion battery while it is inside the vehicle.
  • Page 9: Safe Operation

    Only operate the vehicle when it is in perfect technical condition, in accordance with its intended use, and in a safe and environmentally compatible manner. Have malfunctions that impair safety promptly eliminated by an authorized KTM workshop. Adhere to the information and warning labels on the vehicle.
  • Page 10: Fall Or Accident

    When disposing of the lithium-ion battery (Powerpack LV), observe the relevant laws and guidelines of your coun- try. Your authorized KTM dealer can dispose of the Powerpack LV free of charge and in an environmentally compati- ble manner. Because motorcycles are not subject to the EU regulations governing the disposal of used vehicles, there are no legal regulations that pertain to the disposal of an end-of-life motorcycle.
