system
In order to maintain the effectiveness of the ASR system following the replacement of one or more tyres
a calibration procedure of the system must be performed as follows on a straight flat stretch of road.
• It is necessary that the diagnostic phase of the ASR systems and ABS is complete: for this purpose,
after switching to «ON», ride a short distance above 5 km/h and wait for the flashing of the two warning
lights to stop.
• Allow the engine to idle for at least 5 seconds.
• Pull the brake lever and press the ASR on/off button «1» simultaneously for at least 3 seconds. The
activation process will be confirmed by the ASR warning light «2» turning on with slow flashing.
• Accelerate to a constant speed of 30 to 40 km/h and maintain it for at least to 8 seconds. The continuity
of the vehicle speed in the correct field to complete the procedure will be confirmed by a very fast flashing
of the ASR warning light «2».
• The end of the procedure will be indicated by the steady lighting ASR warning light «2». The ASR
system is not active.
• Once the procedure is complete it is necessary to switch to «OFF» and wait for at least 60 seconds
before being able to switch again to «ON».
• In case of failure to complete the procedure within 5 minutes the ASR warning light «2» will stay on
steady and the ASR will remain off until switching to «OFF».
• To switch again to «ON» it is necessary to reactivate the ASR. It is however necessary to repeat the
process until it succeeds.
CAUTION
