Checks
Before riding the vehicle, check:
1. The fuel and oil tanks are full.
2. The rear hub oil level.
3. The tyres are inflated correctly.
4. The headlight, taillight and turn signals are working properly.
5. The front and rear brakes are in riding order.
6. The fluid level in the brake pump reservoir.
7. The coolant level in the expansion tank.
02_01
Refuelling (02_01, 02_02)
Fill up the fuel tank «A» with unleaded petrol with min number of octanes of 95. A low-
fuel warning light on the dashboard indicates the vehicle is now running on reserve.
Top-up the oil tank «B» with recommended oil. The min oil level is flagged by the
warning light located on the dashboard. The top-up should be carried out as soon as
the warning light goes on or, by all means, before covering 150 km. The vehicle is
fittedwith anelectronic system which performs a check onthe low-fueland oilwarning
lights. As the key is turned onto "ON" the low-oil warning light goes on for a few sec-
onds, indicating it is working correctly; a similar check is run by the digital display at
the same time. A failed check may indicate a fault within the dashboard. If this is the
case, please contact an Authorised Piaggio Service Station. In the event of running
out of oil, even if this has not damaged the engine, it will still be necessary to contact
an Authorised Piaggio Service Station to bleed the oil pump. If this is the case, fill
the fuel tank with at least 3 litres of petrol-oil mixture with 2% oil. Once this has been
exhausted, revert to standard, petrol fill-ups.
