Jump-starting
The wires leading to the
onboard socket do not
have a load-capacity rating
adequate for jump-starting
the engine. Excessively high
current can lead to a cable
fire or damage to the motor-
cycle electronics.
Do not use the onboard
socket to jump-start the
motorcycle.
Touching live parts of
the ignition system with
the engine running can cause
electric shock.
Do not touch parts of the igni-
tion system when the engine
is running.
A short-circuit can result
if the crocodile clips of
the jump leads are acciden-
tally brought into contact with
the motorcycle.
Use only jump leads fitted
with fully insulated crocodile
clips at both ends.
Jump-starting with a
donor-battery voltage
higher than 12 V can damage
the motorcycle electronics.
The battery of the donor ve-
hicle must have a voltage of
12 V.
