You cannot start the motorcycle with the side stand
extended and a gear engaged.
The engine will switch itself off if
it is started with the transmission
in neutral and then a gear is engaged before retracting the side
stand.
For cold starts and at low
ambient temperatures: pull the
lever to disengage the clutch
and twist the throttle grip
slightly.
Press starter button 1.
The start attempt is automatically interrupted if battery voltage is too low. Recharge
the battery before you start the
engine, or use jump leads and a
donor battery to start.
Engine starts.
Consult the troubleshooting
chart if the engine refuses to
start. ( 162)
Pre-Ride Check
In the "Pre-Ride-Check", the
instrument-cluster module executes a test routine to check the
status of the warning lamps and
the tachometer. This test routine
stops if the engine is started before it is completed.
Phase 1
The indicator and warning lamps
light up and the universal warning
lamp lights up in yellow.
The tachometer needle sweeps
to the maximum engine speed.
All segments are shown in the
display.
Phase 2
The universal warning lamp
changes from yellow to red.
Phase 3
The tachometer needle drops
back to zero.
The indicator and warning lamps
go out.
The display reverts to the standard format.
Should one of the warning lamps
fail to appear:
If it was not possible to
switch on the warning
lights, possible malfunctions
cannot be indicated.
Watch all warning and indicator
lights on the display.
Have the malfunction corrected
as soon as possible at an authorized workshop, preferably
