DEPARTURE AND DRIVE
NOTE Before departure, carefully read the
“safe drive” chapter, see page 5 (SAFE DRIVE).
WARNING
Any mention to the use of the vehicle with passenger is to be intended as referred only to the countries where this is al­lowed. If you drive without passenger, make sure that the passenger footrests are folded. While riding, keep your hands on the grips and your feet on the footrests.
NEVER RIDE IN ANY POSITION OTHER THAN THOSE INDICATED.
WARNING
If you drive with a passenger, instruct him/her so that he / she does not create problems during manouvres.
Before leaving, make sure that the stand/ stands is / are completely up.
To leave:
Release the throttle grip (Pos. A), put on
the rear brake, then move the vehicle down the stand.
Get on the vehicle, keeping at least one
foot on the ground in order not to lose bal­ance.
Adjust the inclination of the rear-view mir-
rors correctly.
WARNING
With the vehicle at rest, try to get ac­quainted with the use of the rear-view mirrors.
use and maintenance
To leave, release the brake lever and the
vehicle will start moving.
CAUTION
Do not start off abruptly when the engine is cold. To reduce the emission of polluting sub­stances and the consumption of fuel, warm the engine up by proceeding at low speed for the first miles.
WARNING
Avoid opening and closing the throttle re­peatedly and continuously, so that you do not accidentally lose control of the vehicle.
Scarabeo 50 - Scarabeo 100 4T

Page 6
If you have to brake, close the throttle and put on both brakes in order to obtain uni­form deceleration, properly exerting pres­sure on the braking parts. By putting on the front brake only or the rear brake only, you reduce the braking force considerably, thus running the risk of locking one wheel and consequently losing grip.
If you stop uphill, decelerate completely and use the brakes only to keep the vehi­cle steady. Using the engine to keep the vehicle sta­tionary can overheat the clutch and the variator.
Before beginning to turn, slow down or brake driving at moderate and constant speed or accelerating slightly; avoid braking at the last moment: it would be very easy to skid.
If the brakes are operated continuously on downhill stretches, the friction mate­rial may overheat, thus reducing the brak­ing efficiency.
Exploit the engine compression by putting on both brakes intermittently. Never drive downhill with the engine off!
When riding in conditions of poor visibil-
WARNINGWARNINGWARNING
ity, switch on the high beam lights to im­prove the visibility also in the daytime; in case of wet road or scarce wheel grip (snow, ice, mud, etc.), drive slowly , avoid­ing sudden brakings or manoeuvres that could make you lose grip and fall down.

Pay the utmost attention to any obstacle or variation of the road surface. Uneven roads, rails, manhole covers, in­dications painted on the road surface, building site metal plates become rather slippery by rain. For this reason all these obstacles have to be carefully avoided, driving smoothly and bending the vehi­cle as little as possible.
Always use the direction indicators in time when you intend to change lane or direction, avoiding sharp and dangerous movements. Switch off the direction indicators as soon as you have changed direction.
Be extremely careful when you overtake other vehicles or are overtaken. In case of rain, the water cloud created by big vehicles reduces visibility; the air shift may make you lose control of the vehicle.
If the mixer oil reserve warning light “
WARNINGWARNINGWARNING
comes on during the normal functioning of the engine, this means that the mixer oil reserve is being used; in this case, top up the mixer oil tank, see page 28 (MIXER OIL).

RUNNING-IN
WARNING
After the first 500 km (312 mi), carry out the checking operations indicated in the column “After running-in” of the REGU­LAR SERVICE INTERVALS CHART, see page 48 - 53, in order to avoid hurting yourself or other people and/or damag­ing the vehicle.
The running-in of the engine is primary to ensure its correct functioning and its correct functioning. If possible, drive on hilly roads and/or roads with many bends, so that the engine, the suspensions and the brakes un­dergo a more effective running-in.
For the first 500 km (312 mi), keep to the following indications:
0-100 km (0-62 mi)
During the first 100 km (62 mi) put on the brakes with caution, avoiding sharp and prolonged brakings. This ensures a cor­rect bedding-in of the pads on the brake disc.
0-300 km (0-187 mi)
Do not keep the throttle grip open more than one half for long stretches.
300-500 km (187-312 mi)
Do not keep the throttle grip open more than three-fourths for long stretches.

STOPPING
WARNING WARNING
If possible, avoid stopping abruptly, slow­ing down suddenly and braking at the last moment.
Release the throttle grip (Pos. A) and
gradually put on the brakes to stop the vehicle.
In case of a brief stop, keep at least one
brake on.
PARKING
Park the vehicle on firm and flat ground, to prevent it from falling down. Neither lean the vehicle against walls, nor lay it on the ground. Make sure that the vehicle and especially its red-hot parts do not represent a dan­ger for persons and children.
