FUEL RECOMMENDATION
Use unleaded petrol only.
The petrol should be 85 to 95 octane by research method.
Use recommended fuel additives for longer life of engine
components and lower maintenance.
CAUTION
Never mix oil in petrol in the fuel tank. Always fill fuel from the
reputed and reliable fuel stations.
NOTE
Use fuel additives in petrol as recommended by the respective
manufacturer for low carbon deposition.
CHECKS AND TIPS FOR IMPROVING FUEL ECONOMY
Regular checks
Carry out the periodic maintenance checks as specified in
this manual. (pages 32 to 34)
Regular maintenance checks will save fuel and ensure
trouble-free, enjoyable and safe riding besides keeping
environment clean.
Spark plug
A dirty or defective spark plug leads to wastage of fuel due
to incomplete combustion. Clean and adjust the spark plug
only if necessary. Replace the spark plug every 12000 kms (1
year). Always use recommended spark plug only.
Air cleaner element
A dirty air cleaner restricts airflow and increases fuel
consumption. Replace the air cleaner element every 12000
kms. Since viscous filter is used in your scooter it is not
recommended to clean the filter. Replace the filter incase of
any abnormalities.
Engine oil and Transmission oil
Dirty or less engine oil increases friction between various
parts of engine and reduce the engine life, thereby increases
the fuel consumption.
Running with low transmission oil will cause damage to the
gears and bearings.
Regularly inspect engine oil and transmission oil for correct
level and top-up if necessary. Get it replaced at regular
intervals as per the maintenance schedule.
Fuel leak
Inspect and arrest fuel leaks if any from tank, carburettor
and fuel lines. Loss of fuel due to leak may drain the fuel tank
completely.
