BY USING THE ENGINE STOP SWITCH; AT THE NEXT KEY
ON THE ASR SYSTEM IS ENABLED AUTOMATICALLY.

IT IS EMPHASISED THAT THE RIDING AUXILIARY SYS-
TEM CAN NOT CHANGE THE PHYSICAL LIMITS OF GRIP
AND IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROPER MANAGEMENT
OF POWER, BOTH ON STRAIGHT STRETCHES AND IN

USE THE VEHICLE WITH THE UTMOST CARE AND IN AC-
CORDANCE WITH THE REGULATIONS IN FORCE.

DOES NOT WORK.

IN THE EVENT OF ACCELERATION FROM STANDSTILL IN
CONDITIONS OF LOW GRIP, ESPECIALLY IN THE FIRST
METRES.
N.B.
IN CASE OF ROADS FULL OF HOLES THERE MAY OCCUR
BRIEF ACTIVATION OF THE ASR SYSTEM. THIS OCCURS
UNDER NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS OF THE VE-
HICLE.
N.B.
THE DEVICE PREVENTS IMPRESSING ON THE REAR
HIGH SPEED ROTATION WHEEL WITH THE VEHICLE ON
THE CENTRE STAND. IT IS RECOMMENDED NOT TO IN-
SIST WITH THE THROTTLE GRIP IN THIS PARTICULAR
CONDITION.
CAUTION
A POOR STATE OF MAINTENANCE OF THE TYRES CAN
RESULT IN ABNORMAL OPERATION OF THE ASR SYS-
TEM.
IN CASE OF REPEATED INTERVENTIONS OF THE ASR,
EVEN ON ROAD SURFACES WITH GOOD GRIP OR SMALL
THROTTLE OPENINGS, IT IS NECESSARY TO CHECK FOR
WEAR AND/OR THE STATE OF INFLATION OF TYRES
FIRST. IF THE PROBLEM PERSISTS, CONTACT AN AU-
THORISED SERVICE CENTRE.
