Make Yourself Easy to See
Make yourself more visible, especially at night,
by wearing bright reflective clothing,
positioning yourself so other drivers can see
you, signaling before turning or changing lanes,
and using your horn when necessary.
Ride within Your Limits
Never ride beyond your personal abilities or
faster than conditions warrant. Fatigue and
inattention can impair your ability to use good
judgement and ride safely.
Don’t Drink and Ride
Alcohol and riding don’t mix. Even one

Riding Precautions
Running-in Period
During the first 500 km (300 miles) of running,
follow these guidelines to ensure your scooter’s
future reliability and performance.
●
Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid
acceleration.
●
Avoid hard braking.
●
Ride conservatively.
Brakes
Observe the following guidelines:
●
For full brake effectiveness, operate both the
front and rear brakes together.
●
Avoid excessively hard braking.
u Sudden braking can reduce the scooter’s
sta
bility.
u Where possibl
turning; otherwise you risk sliding out.
12
e, reduce speed before
●
Exercise caution on low traction surfaces.
u The tyres slip more easily o
and braking distances are longer.
●
Avoid continuous braking.
u Repeated braking, such as when
desce
nding long, steep slopes can
seriously overheat the brakes, reducing
their effectiveness.
Combi Brake
❙
Your scooter’s rear brake system is linked to the
front brake. This means that operating the rear
brake lever applies the rear brake and a portion
of the front brake. Operating the front brake
lever applies only the front brake.
For full braking effectiveness, operate both
levers t
gether.
o
n such surfaces
Page 16
Riding Precautions
Scooter Safety
http://www.motorcycle.in.th
Combined ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
❙
(NSS300A only)
This model is also equipped with an Anti-lock
Brake System (ABS) designed to help prevent
the brakes from locking up during hard braking.
Always use the recommended tyres to ensure
correct ABS operation.
●
ABS does not reduce braking distance. In
certain circumstances, ABS may result in a
longer stopping distance.
●
ABS does not function at speeds below 10
km/h (6 mph).
●
The brake lever and pedal may recoil slightly
when applying the brakes. This is normal.
Wet or Rainy Conditions
❙
Road surfaces are slippery when wet, and wet
brakes further reduce braking efficiency.
Exercise extra caution when braking in wet
conditio
ns.
If the brakes get wet, apply the brakes while
riding at low speed to hel
p them dry.
Parking
●
Park on a firm, level surface.
●
If you must park on a slight incline or loose
surface, park so that the scooter cannot
move or fall over.
●
Make sure that high-temperature parts
cannot come into contact with flammable
materials.
●
Do not touch the engine, muffler, brakes and
other high-temperature parts until they cool
down.

Battery
Your scooter has a maintenance-free type
battery. You do not have to check the battery
electrolyte level or add distilled water. Clean the
battery terminals if they become dirty or
corroded.
Do not remove the battery cap seals. There is no
need to remove the cap when charging.
Your battery is a maintenance-free type and can be
permanently damaged if the cap strip is removed.
This symbol on the battery means that
this product must not be treated as
household waste.
An improperly disposed of battery can be harmful to the
environment and human health.
Always confirm local regulations for battery disposal.
Maintenance Fundamentals
The battery gives off explosive
hydrogen gas during normal
operation.
A spark or flame can cause the battery
to explode with enough force to kill or
seriously hurt you.
Wear protective clothing and a face
shield, or have a skilled mechanic do
the battery servicing.

Tighten the spark plug:
●
If the old plug is good:
1/8 turn after it seats
●
If installing a new plug, tighten it twice
to prevent loosening:
a) First, tighten the plug:
NGK: 1/2 turn after it seats.
b) Then loosen the plug.
c) Next, tighten the plug again:
1/8 turn after it seats.
Improperly tightened spark plug can damage the engine.
If a plug is too loose, a piston may be damaged. If a plug
