safe drive

"!3)# 3!&%49 25,%3

To drive the vehicle it is necessary to be in possession of all the requirements prescribed by law (driving licence, minimum age, psychophysical ability, insurance, state taxes, vehicle registration, number plate, etc.).

Gradually get to know the vehicle by driving it first in areas with low traffic and/or private areas.

The use of medicins, alcohol and drugs or psychotropic substances notably increases the risk of accidents.

Be sure that you are in good psychophysical conditions and fit for driving and pay particular attention to physical weariness and drowsiness.

Most road accidents are caused by the driver’s lack of experience.

NEVER lend the vehicle to beginners and, in any case, make sure that the driver has all the requirements for driving.

6 use and maintenance Habana 50/125 - Habana Custom 50/125

Rigorously observe all road signs and national and local road regulations.

Avoid abrupt movements that can be dangerous for yourself and other people (for example: rearing up on the back wheel, speeding, etc.), and give due consideration to the road surface, visibility and other driving conditions.

Avoid obstacles that could damage the vehicle or make you lose control.

Avoid riding in the slipstream created by preceding vehicles in order to increase your speed.

Always keep both hands on the handlebars and both feet on the footboard (or on the footrests), in the correct driving posture.

Avoid standing up or stretching your limbs while driving.

use and maintenance Habana 50/125 - Habana Custom 50/125 7

The driver should pay attention and avoid distractions caused by people, things and movements (never smoke, eat, drink, read, etc.) while driving.

COOLER

OIL

Use only the vehicle’s specific fuels and lubricants indicated in the “LUBRICANT CHART”; check all oil, fuel and coolant levels regularly.

If the vehicle has been involved in an accident, make sure that no damage has occurred to the control levers, pipes, wires, braking system and vital parts.

If necessary, have the vehicle inspected by an aprilia Official Dealer, who should carefully check the frame, handlebars, suspensions, safety parts and all the devices that you cannot check by yourself.

Always remember to report any malfunction to the technicians to help them in their work.

Never use the vehicle when the amount of damage it has suffered endangers your safety.

Never change the position, inclination or colour of: number plate, direction indicators, lights and horns.

Any modification of the vehicle will result in the invalidity of the guarantee.

For only vehicles up to 50 cm3

Any modification of the engine or of other members which is aimed at increasing the speed or the power of the vehicle is prohibited by the law; in fact, any modification resulting in an increase of the maximum speed or of the engine displacement would change the scooter into a motorcycle,

which implies the following obligations for the owner:

new homologation;

new registration;

appropriate driving license.

Further, said modifications cause the loss of the insurance cover, since insurance policies expressly prohibit to make technical changes aimed at increasing the vehicle performance levels.

For the reasons stated above, the failure to comply with the tampering prohibition is punished by law with appropriate sanctions (including the confiscation of the vehicle), which, according to the case, can be combined with the sanctions provided for not using the crash helmet and/or the number plate, for the violation of fiscal obligations (ownership tax) and with penal sanctions provided for using the vehicle without driving license.

ONLY ORIGINALS

For only vehicles over 50 cm3

Any modification of the vehicle and/or the removal of original components can compromise vehicle performance levels and safety or even make it illegal.

We recommend respecting all regulations and national and local provisions regarding the equipment of the vehicle.

In particular, avoid all modifications that increase the vehicle’s performance levels or alter its original characteristics.

Never race with other vehicles.

Avoid off-road driving.

#,/4().'

Before starting, always wear a correctly fastened crash helmet. Make sure that it is homologated, in good shape, of the right size and that the visor is clean.

Wear protective clothing, preferably in light and/or reflecting colours.

In this way you will make yourself more visible to the other drivers, thus notably reducing the risk of being knocked down, and you will be more protected in case of fall.

This clothing should be very tight-fitting and fastened at the wrists and ankles. Strings, belts and ties should not be hanging loose; prevent these and other objects from interfering with driving by getting entangled with moving parts or driving mechanisms.

use and maintenance Habana 50/125 - Habana Custom 50/125 9

Do not keep objects that can be dangerous in case of fall, for example pointed objects like keys, pens, glass vials etc. in your pockets (the same recommendations also apply to passengers).

!##%33/2)%3

The owner of the vehicle is responsible for the choice, installation and use of any accessory.

Avoid installing accessories that cover horns or lights or that could impair their functions, limit the suspension stroke and the steering angle, hamper the operation of the controls and reduce the distance from the ground and the angle of inclination in turns.

Avoid using accessories that hamper access to the controls, since this can prolong reaction times during an emergency.

Big fairings and windshields installed on the vehicle may produce aerodynamic forces that affect the stability of the vehicle, especially when riding at high speed.

Make sure that the equipment is well fastened to the vehicle and not dangerous during driving. Do not install electrical devices and do not modify those already existing to avoid electrical overloads, because the vehicle could suddenly stop or there could be a dangerous current shortage in the horn and in the lights.

aprilia recommends the use of aprilia genuine accessories.

,/!$

Be careful and moderate when loading your luggage. Keep any luggage loaded as close as possible to the center of gravity of the vehicle and distribute the load uniformly on both sides, in order to reduce umbalance to the minimum. Furthermore, make sure that the load is firmly secured to the vehicle, especially during long trips.

10 use and maintenance Habana 50/125 - Habana Custom 50/125

KG!

Avoid hanging bulky, heavy and/or dangerous objects on the handlebars, mudguards and forks: the vehicle might respond more slowly in turns and its manoeuvrability could be unavoidably impaired.

Do not place bags that are too bulky on the vehicle sides, because they could hit people or obstacles, making you lose control of the vehicle.

Do not carry any bag if it is not tightly secured to the vehicle.

Do not carry bags which protrude too much from the luggage-rack or which cover the lights, horn or indicators.

Do not carry animals or children on the glove compartment or on the luggagerack.

Do not exceed the maximum load allowed for each side-bag.

When the vehicle is overloaded, its stability and its manoeuvrability can be compromised.

aWARNING

The fuel used for internal combustion engines is extremely inflammable and in particular conditions it can become explosive. It is important to carry out the refuelling and the maintenance operations in a well-ventilated area, with the engine off. Do not smoke while refuelling or near fuel vapours, in any case avoid any contact with naked flames, sparks and any other heat source to prevent the fuel from catching fire or from exploding.

Further, prevent fuel from flowing out of the fuel filler, as it could catch fire when getting in contact with the red-hot surfaces of the engine.

In case some fuel has accidentally been spilt, make sure that the area is completely dry before starting the vehicle.

Since petrol expands under the heat of the sun and due to the effects of sun radiation, never fill the tank to the brim. Screw the cap carefully after refuelling. Avoid any contact of the fuel with the skin and the inhalation of vapours; do not swallow fuel or pour it from a receptacle into another by means of a tube.

DO NOT DISPOSE OF FUEL IN THE ENVIRONMENT.

KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.

aWARNING

Sudden resistance or clearance problems on the brake lever may be due to troubles in the hydraulic system.

For any doubt regarding the perfect functioning of the braking system and in case you are not able to carry out the usual checking operations, contact your APRILIA Official Dealer.Pay special attention to the brake disc and friction material, making sure that they are neither dirty nor oily, especially after maintenance operations or inspections.

Make sure that the brake pipe is neither twisted nor worn out.

&2/.4 "2!+% $)3#

aWARNING

The brakes are the parts that most ensure your safety and for this reason they must always be perfectly working; check them before every trip.

A dirty disc soils the pads, with consequent reduction of the braking efficiency. Dirty pads must be replaced, while dirty discs must be cleaned with a highquality degreaser.

The brake fluid must be changed every two years by an APRILIA Official Dealer.

For any doubt regarding the perfect functioning of the braking system and in case you are not able to carry out the

usual checking operations, contact your APRILIA Official Dealer.

This vehicle is provided with front hydraulic disc brake.

When the disc pads wear out, the level of the fluid decreases to automatically compensate for their wear.

The brake fluid reservoir (1) is positioned near the front brake lever coupling. Periodically check the brake fluid level in the reservoir (1) and the pad wear, see p. 52 (CHECKING THE BRAKE PAD WEAR)

aWARNING

Do not use the vehicle if the braking system leaks fluid.

CHECKING

To check the brake fluid level, proceed as follows:

NOTE Position the vehicle on firm and flat ground.

Position the vehicle on the centre stand.

Rotate the handlebar, so that the fluid contained in the brake reservoir is parallel to the “MIN” mark stamped on the glass gauge (2).

Make sure that the fluid contained in the reservoir exceeds the “MIN” mark stamped on the glass gauge (2).

MIN = minimum level.

If the fluid does not reach at least the “MIN” mark:

aCAUTION

When the disc pads wear out, the level of the fluid decreases progressively to compensate for their wear.

Check the brake pad wear, see p. 52 (CHECKING THE BRAKE PAD WEAR) and the disc wear.

If the pads and / or the disc do not need replacing:

Contact an aprilia Official Dealer, who will provide for topping up.

aCAUTION

Check the braking efficiency.

In case of excessive stroke of the brake lever or reduced efficiency of the braking system, contact an APRILIA Official Dealer, since it may be necessary to bleed the system.

For any doubt regarding the perfect functioning of the braking system and in case you are not able to carry out the

usual checking operations, contact your APRILIA Official Dealer.

ADJUSTING THE BRAKE

Measure the distance covered by the lever before the brake starts it braking action. The idle stroke at the end of the brake lever must be about 10 mm.

To adjust the clearance, proceed as follows:

Force the spring (1) to reach the seat (2) of the threaded rod.

Lock the rotation of the threaded rod by acting on the appropriate seat (2) with a spanner.

Act on the adjuster (3).

Put on the brake repeatedly and make sure that the wheel turns freely after the brake has been released.

Check the braking efficiency.

aCAUTION

w v

The fact that the adjuster (3) can be tightened completely or the indicator (4) is positioned beyond the reference tooth (5) indicates that the brake shoes are worn; in this case, see p. 53 (CHECKING THE SHOE WEAR).

This vehicle is provided with tubeless tyres.

aWARNING

Periodically check the tyre inflation pressure at room temperature, see p. 82 (TECHNICAL DATA)

If the tyres are hot, the measurement is not correct.

Carry out the measurement especially before and after long rides.

If the inflation pressure is too high, the ground unevenness cannot be dampened and is therefore transmitted to the handlebar, thus compromising the driving comfort and reducing road holding during turns.

If, on the contrary, the inflation pressure is too low, the tyre sides (1) are under greater stress and the tyre itself may slip on the rim or it may become loose, with consequent loss of control of the vehicle.

In case of sudden braking the tyres could even get out of the rims. Further, the vehicle could skid while turning.

Check the surface and the wear of the tyres, since tyres in bad conditions can impair both the grip and the controllability of the vehicle.

Some types of tyres homologated for this vehicle are provided with wear indicators.

There are several kinds of wear indicators.

For more information on how to check the wear, contact your Dealer.

Visually check if the tyres are worn and in this case have them changed.

If the tyres are old, even if not completely worn out, they may become hard and may not ensure good road holding.

In this case, have the tyres changed.

Change the tyre when it is worn out or in case of puncture on the tread side, if the puncture is larger than 5 mm.

After repairing a tyre, have the wheels balanced.

Use only tyres in the size suggested by APRILIA, see p. 82 (TECHNICAL DATA).

Do not install tyres with air tube on rims for tubeless tyres and viceversa.
