Starting off

Open the throttle carefully.
8.4
Riding
Info
If unusual noises occur while riding, stop immediately, switch off the engine, and contact an authorized
GASGAS Motorcycles workshop.
–
If the choke function has been activated, deactivate it after the engine has warmed up.
–
After reaching maximum speed by fully opening the throttle grip, turn the throttle back so it is ¾ open. This will barely
reduce the speed, but fuel consumption will be considerably lower.
–
Your child should always open the throttle only as much as the engine can handle – abruptly opening the throttle
increases fuel consumption.
–
Your child should switch off the engine if prolonged operation at idle speed or while stationary is imminent.
Guideline
≥ 2 min

Applying the brakes
Warning
Danger of accidents Excessively forceful application of the brakes blocks the wheels.

Warning
Danger of accidents A spongy pressure point on the front or rear brake reduces braking efficiency.
–
Check the brake system and do not allow your child to continue riding until the problem is eliminated. (Your
authorized GASGAS Motorcycles workshop will be glad to help.)
