Turn indicators
Turn indicators are automatically reset by the
instrument panel.
To activate the left turn indicator, move button (3) to
position (D); to activate the right turn indicator,
move button in position (E).
To switch off the turn indicators, move button (3) to
its centre position.
Automatic switch-off:
The turn indicators switch off automatically after the
turn, as calculated based on vehicle speed, leaning
angle and in general according to the analysis of
vehicle dynamic conditions.
This means that automatic switch-off is triggered
when vehicle speed exceeds 20 km/h (12.4 mph)
after the turn indicator button was pressed.
Turn indicators also switch off automatically if they
remained on for a long mileage, which can range
between 200 and 2000 metres (656-6562 feet),
depending on vehicle speed when the turn indicator
button was pressed.
If the turn indicator switch is again operated, while
turn indicator is still on, automatic switch-off feature
is re-initialised.

Attention
The automatic deactivation systems are assist
systems helping the rider control the turn indicators
in the most comfortable and easy way. Such systems
have been designed to work in most riding
manoeuvres, nonetheless the rider must pay
attention to the turn indicator operation (disabling
or enabling them by hand if needed).
