OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
•The vehicle must be accompanied by: number-plate, registration document, tax
disc and insurance.
•Do not carry animals, pets or loose objects that can stick out from the vehicle.
•Riding without a crash helmet is forbidden.
•Always ride with the low beam on.
•Any modifications of the engine or other parts resulting in a power and/or speed
increase are punishable by severe sanctions including the confiscation of the vehicle.
•To protect your safety and that of others, always drive carefully and with your helmet
on.
WARNING
Any modifications and tampering with the vehicle during the warranty period exempt
the manufacturer from all responsibility and invalidate warranty.
ECOLOGIC GUIDE
•Every vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine produces an amount of
noise (noise pollution) and gases (air pollution) which varies with the riding style.
•The abatement of noise and air pollution levels is the duty of everybody. Avoid
full-throttle starts, sudden acceleration and abrupt braking. This will reduce noise
emission as well as the wear and tear of the tyres and mechanical parts, and will
also allow a considerable reduction in fuel consumption.

GB
RIDING SAFETY
•Observe the Highway Code.
•Always put on and fasten a homologated helmet.
•Always ride with the low beam on.
•Always keep the crash helmet visor clean.
•Avoid wearing garments with hanging ends.
•Do not keep sharp or brittle objects in your pockets while riding.
•Properly adjust the rearview mirrors.
•Always ride in a seated position, with both hands on the handlebars and both feet
on the footrests.
•Always pay attention and do not allow anything to distract you while riding.
•Do not eat, drink, smoke, use a mobile phone, etc. while riding.
•Do not wear headphones to listen to music while riding.

•To reduce the braking distance, always apply both brakes.
•On wet roads and in off-road riding, drive with care and at moderate speed. Take
special care in applying the brakes.
•Do not start the engine in closed places.
