Starting The Engine - KYMCO Quannon 150 Owner's Manual

OPERATION
License plate inspection
Make sure the license plate is secure on the motorcycle
and is in plain view. Make sure any other required inspec-
tion labels or tags are positioned as required by law.
Damaged items or needed repairs
Should you discover any damage to your motorcycle, or
that the motorcycle is in need of repair, take action to have
it serviced immediately. Keeping your motorcycle in proper
working condition is essential for your safety and for main-
taining the value of your vehicle.
Lubrication point check
Visually check that all of the motorcycle's lubrication points
have been lubricated properly.

Starting the engine

Always follow the proper starting procedure as described here.
NOTE: Your motorcycle is equipped with a side stand ig-
nition cutoff system. The engine cannot be started if the
side stand is down. A running engine will shut off if the
side stand is lowered.
Your motorcycle's exhaust emits poisonous carbon
monoxide gas. High levels of carbon monoxide can
collect rapidly in enclosed areas such as a garage. Do
not run the motorcycle's engine with the garage door
closed. Even with the door open, run the engine only long
enough to move your motorcycle out of the garage.
To prevent damage to the starter motor, do not operate the
starter motor for more than five seconds at a time. If the
motorcycle fails to start immediately, check the fuel level
and the battery condition, and allow the starter motor to
cool before attempting to start the engine again.
NOTE: Always check the engine oil level and the fuel level
BEFORE attempting to start your motorcycle's engine.
