Fuel

In the condition at delivery, the LC8 engine requires unleaded fuel with at least RON 95
(USA = Premium PON 91, see technical specifications – engine).
After refueling, it will take approx. 3 minutes for the fuel warning lamp to switch off and for
MAX
TRIP F to automatically reset to 0 and return to the previous display mode.
NOTE:
Press the SET key for 2 seconds to immediately turn off the fuel warning lamp.
This motorcycle is equipped with a catalytic converter that will be destroyed if you use leaded
fuel. Always use unleaded fuel.
Fuel expands when its temperature rises. Therefore do not fill the tank to the top (see fig.).
Gasoline is highly flammable and poisonous. Extreme caution should be used when han-
dling gasoline. Do not refuel the motorcycle near open flames or burning cigarettes. Always
switch off the engine before refuelling. Be careful not to spill gasoline on the engine or exhaust
pipe while the engine is hot. Wipe up spills promptly. If gasoline is swallowed or splashed
in the eyes, seek a doctor's advice immediately.
