OF MAXIMUM ALLOWED LOAD.

25

2 Use

Automatic transmission

To ensure simple, pleasurable riding, the vehicle is equipped with automatic trans­mission with regulator and centrifugal clutch. The system is designed to give the best
possible performance in terms of both acceleration and consumption, on level ground
and uphill, thanks to the adjustments made to engine speed and transmitted torque.
If you have to stop on an uphill slope (traffic lights, traffic jam, etc.) only use the brake
to keep the vehicle still, leaving the motor running at idling speed. Using the motor to
keep the vehicle still can cause the clutch to overheat. This problem is due to the
friction of the clutch parts on the clutch bell. It is therefore recommended to avoid
conditions of prolonged clutch slippage leading to clutch overheating (for example, as
well as the situation described above, riding uphill fully laden on steep slopes or start­ing off on slopes greater than 25%, etc.):

1. Do not continue riding in such conditions.

2. Let the clutch cool down with the motor at idling speed for a few minutes

Safe driving

WARNING

SOME SIMPLE TIPS ARE PROVIDED BELOW WHICH WILL ENABLE YOU TO
USE YOUR VEHICLE ON A DAILY BASIS MORE EASILY AND SAFELY.

<

Your ability and your knowledge of the vehicle form the basis of safe riding. We rec­ommend trying out the vehicle in traffic-free zones to get to know your vehicle
completely.

ALWAYS DRIVE WITHIN YOUR LIMITS

26

1. Before riding off, remember to put on your helmet and fasten it correctly.

2. Reduce speed and ride cautiously on uneven roads.

3. Remember that after riding on a long stretch of wet road without using the brakes,

the braking effect is initially lower. Under these conditions, it is a good idea to operate
the brakes from time to time.

4. Do not brake hard on a wet surface, on dirt tracks or on any slippery road surface.

5. If you have to brake, use both brakes in order to divide the braking action between

both wheels.

6. Avoid starting off by mounting the vehicle while it is still resting on its stand. In any
case, the rear wheel should not be turning when it comes into contact with the ground,
in order to avoid abrupt departures.

7. If the vehicle is used on roads covered with sand, mud, snow mixed with salt, etc.,
clean the brake disc frequently with mild detergent in order to prevent abrasive sub­stances from building up within the holes, which can result in early wear of the brake
pads.

8. Any elaboration that modifies the vehicle's performances, such as tampering with
original structural parts is strictly forbidden by law, and renders the vehicle not con­forming to the approved type and therefor dangerous to ride.

CAUTION

RIDING UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL, DRUGS OR CERTAIN MEDI­CINES CAN BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FOR ONESELF AND FOR OTHERS.

CAUTION

ANY ELABORATION THAT MODIFIES THE VEHICLE'S PERFORMANCES, SUCH
AS TAMPERING WITH ORIGINAL STRUCTURAL PARTS IS STRICTLY FORBID-

27

2 Use

DEN BY LAW, AND RENDERS THE VEHICLE NO LONGER CONFORMING TO
THE APPROVED TYPE AND DANGEROUS FOR RIDING.

03_01

Engine oil level (03_01)

In 4T engines, the engine oil is used to lubricate the distribution elements, the bench
bearings and the thermal group. An insufficient quantity of oil can seriously dam-
age the engine. In all 4T engines the decay of oil characteristics as well as some
consumption is normal. Consumption can particularly reflect the conditions of use (i.e.
when driving at 'full acceleration' all the time, oil consumption increases).

In order to avoid problems, it is advisable to control oil level every time the
vehicle is used.

03_02

Engine oil level check (03_02)

Every time the vehicle is used, a visual check should be made on the level of the
engine oil when the engine is cold. The oil level should be somewhere between the
MAX and MIN index marks on the level bar; the check must be made with the vehicle
upright, resting on the centre stand.

If the check is carried out after the vehicle has been used, and therefore with a hot
engine, the level will be lower; in order to carry out a correct check, wait at least 10
minutes after the engine has been stopped so as to get the correct level.

CAUTION

RUNNING THE ENGINE WITH INSUFFICIENT LUBRICATION OR WITH THE IN­ADEQUATE LUBRICANTS ACCELERATES WEAR AND TEAR OF THE MOVING
PARTS AND CAN CAUSE IRRETRIEVABLE DAMAGE.

Engine oil top-up

Always check oil level before carrying out top-ups and add oil without exceeding the
MAX level. An engine oil check-up and top-up should be carried out every 3,000 km

at an Authorised Piaggio Service Centre.

03_03

03_04

Engine oil change (03_03, 03_04, 03_05)

Change oil and clean the filter after every 6,000 km at an Authorised Service Cen­tre. Empty the engine by draining the oil through drainage cap «C» with a cold engine.

First unscrew the cap-dipstick used to check engine oil level, then cap «C» and take
out the mesh filter. After cleaning and mounting again the mesh filter, screw cap «C»
and fill with oil the hole of the cap-dipstick used to check engine oil level. Then start
the vehicle, leave it running for a few minutes and switch it off: 5 minutes later check
oil level and, if necessary, add oil without exceeding the MAX level. Only use new
oil of the recommend type for oil top-ups and change.

Checking the brake oil level (03_11, 03_12)

The brake fluid reservoir is equipped with a sight glass «A» made of transparent ma­terial; the quantity of liquid contained in the sight glass indicates the level of liquid in
the reservoir.

When the sight glass «A» is full, the level inside the reservoir exceeds the MIN level;
when it is partially full, the level drops to the MIN level; when it is fully empty, the level
of fluid in the reservoir is below the MIN level.

The brake fluid level may fall due to wear on the brake pads. In case the pad wear is
below the minimum mark, contact an Authorised Service Centre to have the braking
system thoroughly checked. If you need to top up the level, follow the steps listed
below. Unscrew the 2 screws «B», remove the reservoir cap «C » and pour in the
required quantity of fluid (the brake fluid level must be above minimum). Place the
handlebar in the riding position and pay attention not to tilt the vehicle in order to keep
the brake fluid reservoir in horizontal position when checking the fluid level.

WARNING

IN NORMAL CLIMATIC CONDITIONS IT IS ADVISABLE TO REPLACE THE
ABOVE-MENTIONED FLUID EVERY 2 YEAR. NEVER USE BRAKE FLUID CON­TAINED IN CONTAINERS WHICH ARE ALREADY OPEN OR PARTIALLY USED.

CAUTION

THE BRAKING CIRCUIT FLUID IS HIGHLY CORROSIVE. THEREFORE, WHEN
TOPPING UP, AVOID LETTING IT COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE PAINTED
PARTS OF THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKING CIRCUIT FLUID IS HYGROSCOPIC,
THAT IS, IT ABSORBS HUMIDITY FROM THE SURROUNDING AIR. IF MOISTURE

SKIN AND CLOTHES. IN CASE OF ACCIDENTAL CONTACT, RINSE WITH ABUN­DANT WATER AND CONSULT A DOCTOR.

Long periods of inactivity

Battery performance will be poor if the vehicle is not used for a long time. This is the
result of the natural phenomenon of battery discharging, and may be due to residual
absorption by vehicle components with constant power consumption. Poor battery
performance may also be due to environmental conditions and the cleanliness of the
poles. In order to avoid difficult starts and/or irreversible damage to the battery, follow
any of these steps:

- At least once a month start the engine and run it slightly above idle speed for 10-15
minutes. This keeps all the engine components, as well as the battery, in good working
order.

- Take your vehicle to a garage (as indicated in the «Vehicle not used for extended
periods» section) to have the battery removed. Have the battery cleaned, charged
fully and stored in a dry, ventilated place. Recharge at least once every two

months.
N.B.
THE BATTERY MUST BE CHARGED WITH A CURRENT EQUAL TO 1/10 OF THE

RATED CAPACITY OF THE BATTERY AND FOR NOT LONGER THAN 10 HOURS.
CONTACT AN AUTHORISED SERVICE CENTRE TO CARRY OUT THIS OPERA­TION SAFELY. WHEN REFITTING THE BATTERY MAKE SURE THE LEADS ARE
CORRECTLY CONNECTED TO THE TERMINALS.

03_34

Front disc brake (03_34)

The brake disc and pad wear is automatically compensated, therefore it has no effect
on the functioning of the front and rear brakes. For this reason it is not necessary to
adjust the brakes. An excessively elastic brake lever stroke may indicate the presence
of air in the braking circuit or an irregular brake operation. In this case, particularly
considering the importance of the brakes in terms of safety, it is strongly recommended
that you take the vehicle to an Authorised Service Centre as soon as possible for
the appropriate checks.

WARNING

CHECK BRAKE PADS FOR WEAR ON A REGULAR BASIS (AS INDICATED IN
THE SCHEDULE MAINTENANCE TABLES). IF THE THICKNESS OF ONE OR
BOTH PADS IS IN THE REGION OF 1.5 MM, BOTH PADS MUST BE CHANGED.
IT IS RECOMMENDED TO CARRY OUT THIS OPERATION AT AN AUTHORISED
SERVICE CENTRE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

AFTER FITTING NEW BRAKE PADS DO NOT USE THE VEHICLE UNTIL YOU
HAVE ACTIVATED THE BRAKE LEVER REPEATEDLY TO POSITION THE PADS
AND RESTORE THE LEVER STROKE TO ITS CORRECT POSITION.

CAUTION

BRAKING SHOULD BEGIN AFTER ABOUT 1/3 OF THE BRAKE LEVER STROKE.

03_35

Rear drum brake (03_35)

Operate adjusting nut «B» and loosen lock nut «A» shown in the figure. Note that
when the throttle is in idle the wheel should rotate free. After the adjustment, screw
lock nut «A».

CAUTION

BRAKING SHOULD BEGIN AFTER ABOUT 1/3 OF THE BRAKE LEVER STROKE.

03_36

Puncture (03_36)

The vehicle is equipped with Tubeless tyres. When there is a puncture, Tubeless tyres

- unlike tyres with inner tubes - go flat very slowly. This offers greater riding safety. A
tyre that goes flat very slowly can be repaired with an "Inflate and Repair" spray. Tyres
should be later fully repaired or replaced at an Authorised Service Centre.

50

Periods of inactivity

We recommend carrying out the following operations:

1. General cleaning of the vehicle.
2 - With the engine off and the piston at bottom dead centre position, remove the spark

plug and pour 1÷2 cc of motor oil through its hole. Operate the starter motor 3-4 times
letting the engine perform a few revolutions, then remount the spark plug.

3 - Drain up all the vehicle's fuel; spread antirust grease on the uncoated metal parts;
keep the wheels lifted above the ground.

4 - For the battery, follow the procedures described in the «Battery» section.
5 - Replace engine oil.

Recommended products

Synthetic oil for 4-stroke engines

Synthetic-based lubricant for four stroke engines.

SAE 5W-40, API SL, ACEA A3, JASO MA

Cleaning the vehicle

Use a low pressure jet of water to soften the caked dirt and mud deposited on the
painted surfaces. Once softened, sponge off mud and dirt using a car body sponge
soaked in a car body shampoo and water solution (2-4% of car shampoo in water).
Then rinse with abundant water, and dry with a shammy cloth. For the engine exterior,
use petrol, a brush and clean cloths. Petrol can damage paintwork. Remember that
any polishing with silicone wax must always be preceded by washing.

WARNING

To avoid the appearance of oxidations, wash the vehicle every time it is used in
certain areas or in special conditions of:

· Environmental / seasonal conditions: use of salt, de-icer chemical products on
the road in winter.

· Air pollution: city and/or industrial areas.

· Salinity and humidity of the atmosphere: marine areas, hot and wet weather.
WARNING

. Avoid that deposits remain on the bodywork, industrial and pollutant residual
dust, tar spots, dead insects, bird droppings, etc.

· Do not park the vehicle under the trees. In some seasons, as from the trees
may fall residues, resins, fruits or leaves that contain chemicals which are
harmful to the paintwork.

CAUTION

DETERGENTS POLLUTE WATER. THEREFORE THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE
WASHED IN AN AREA EQUIPPED FOR THE COLLECTION AND PURIFICATION
OF THE LIQUIDS USED.

52

WARNING

NEVER WASH THE VEHICLE UNDER DIRECT SUNLIGHT, ESPECIALLY IN SUM­MER WHEN THE BODYWORK IS STILL HOT, AS THE CAR SHAMPOO MAY DRY
BEFORE BEING RINSED OFF, AND COULD DAMAGE THE PAINTWORK. NEVER
USE RAGS SOAKED IN PETROL OR DIESEL OIL TO CLEAN THE PAINTED OR
PLASTIC SURFACES, IN ORDER TO PREVENT THEM LOSING THEIR SHINE
AND MECHANICAL CHARACTERISTICS.

WARNING

WHEN WASHING THE ENGINE WITH A HIGH-PRESSURE WATER JET:

• ONLY USE FAN SPRAY JETS.

• DO NOT PLACE THE WATER JET NOZZLE CLOSER THAN 60 CM.

• DO NOT USE WATER AT TEMPERATURES OVER 40ºC.

• DO NOT DIRECT THE JET AT THE THROTTLE BODY, THE ELECTRIC CABLES,
THE COOLING SLITS IN THE TRANSMISSION COVER AND THE SPIRAL COVER.

IGNITION PROBLEMS

No spark from spark plug. Due to
the presence of high voltage, this
check should only be carried out by
an expert.

Make sure the electrodes are
properly adjusted. Check that they
are (clean with pure petrol and a
metal brush or with emery cloth).
Check the spark plug insulator:
Replace the spark plug if the
insulator is cracked or broken. If
the spark plug is in good
conditions, contact an Authorised

Service Centre.

LACK OF COMPRESSION

Spark plug loose. Loose cylinder
head, worn piston retaining rings.

Contact an Authorised Service

Centre.

HIGH CONSUMPTION AND LOW PERFORMANCE
