10 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 10.2 Starting the vehicle Danger Danger of poisoning Exhaust gases are toxic and inhaling them may result in unconsciousness and death. – Always make sure there is sufficient ventilation when running the engine. – Use effective exhaust extraction when starting or running the engine in an enclosed space. Note Engine damage High revving speed with a cold engine negatively impacts the lifespan of the engine.
RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 10 – Turn emergency OFF switch/electric starter button to the lower position Info Do not press the emergency off switch/electric starter button into the lower position until the combination instrument function check has been completed. When starting, DO NOT open the throttle. If you open the throttle during the starting procedure, fuel is not injected by the engine management system and the engine cannot start.
10 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 10.4 Quickshifter + (optional) If the quickshifter + is activated, you can shift up and down with- out actuating the clutch. Because there is no need to close the throttle grip, uninterrupted gear shifts are possible. The quickshifter + uses the shifter shaft position to check whether or not a shift should be initiated, and sends a corresponding signal to the engine control.
RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 10 10.5 Shifting, riding Warning Danger of accidents Abrupt load alterations can cause the vehicle to get out of control. – Avoid abrupt load alterations and sudden braking actions. – Adapt your speed to the road conditions.

Page 161
RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 10 Warning Danger of accidents The rear wheel can lock due to the engine braking effect. – Pull in the clutch, if you perform emergency or full braking, or if you brake on a slippery ground. Warning Danger of accidents Driving aids can only prevent a rollover within the physical limitations. It is not always possible to compensate for extreme riding situations, for example with luggage loaded with a high center of gravity, varying road surfaces, steep descents or full braking without disengaging the gear.
10 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS – Use the braking effect of the engine on long downhill stretches. To do so, shift back one or two gears, but do not overrev the engine. This means that significantly less braking is required and the brake system does not overheat.

16 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Info Even when there is no load on the 12-V battery, it discharges steadily each day. The charging level and the method of charging are very important for the service life of the 12-V battery. Rapid recharging with a high charging current shortens the service life of the battery. If the charging current, charging voltage, or charging time is exceeded, electrolyte escapes through the safety valves.
