Automatic headlight switch-off
This function helps reduce battery use by automatically
switching off the headlight.
The device is triggered in two cases:
- in the first case, if you turn the key from OFF to ON but
do not start the engine, After 60 seconds the headlight
will be deactivated and will only be reactivated the next
time the key is turned from OFF to ON or the engine is
started.
- in the second case, after normal use of the motorcycle
with the lights on, if the engine is shut off using the
ENGINE STOP switch (1, fig. 13). In this case,
60 seconds after the engine is stopped, the headlight
will be turned off and will only be turned on again the
next time the engine is started.
Notes
Also during engine starting, the system turns the
headlight off and turns it back on once the engine has
started.
