Braking system

Level check

Proceed as follows:
- Rest the vehicle on its centre stand with the han-
dlebars perfectly horizontal;
- Check the level of liquid with the related warning
light «A».
A certain lowering of the level is caused by wear
on the pads.

Top-up

Proceed as follows:
- Remove the tank cap by loosening the two
screws, remove the gasket and top up using only
the liquid specified without exceeding the maxi-
mum level.
CAUTION

GET INTO YOUR EYES OR ON YOUR SKIN OR
CLOTHES. IF THIS HAPPENS ACCIDENTALLY,

CAUTION
THE BRAKE FLUID IS HYGROSCOPIC, IN OTH-
ER WORDS, IT ABSORBS MOISTURE FROM
THE SURROUNDING AIR. IF THE CONTENT OF

TIALLY USED CONTAINERS.
