1) ENGINE STOP SWITCH (
n - m)
Use the engine stop switch to stop the engine. It is essential
that you be very familiar with this control so that you will auto-
matically stop the engine in the event of a stuck throttle or oth-
er engine runaway.
aWARNING
If the throttle sticks open, it may cause a collision with an-
other vehicle, or an upset.
If the throttle sticks, kill the engine with the engine stop
switch located on the right handlebar.
Do not attempt to restart the engine until the throttle has
been repaired and works perfectly. Failure to obey this
warning can lead to a runaway with seriously injuries or
even death.
Your vehicle is equipped with a double cable throttle. One ca-
ble opens the throttle when you rotate the throttle grip toward
you; the other closes the throttle when you rotate the grip
away from you. It is essential, when you release the throttle
grip, that it automatically return to the idle position.
This double cable arrangement enhances safety by providing
for positive closing of the throttle.
aWARNING
In the event of a throttle sticking emergency, always kill the
engine using the engine stop switch located near the throt-
tle grip on the right handlebar. Never use your vehicle if the
throttle does not automatically fully return to the idle posi-
tion when the throttle grip is released. Contact your Local
APRILIA Dealer for repairs. Failure to heed this warning can
lead to a serious accident and subsequent injury or even
death.
aWARNING
Do not use the engine stop switch to stop the engine while
the vehicle is moving.
With the switch (1) in the “
n” (ON) position it is possible to
start the engine. The engine can be stopped by moving the
switch (1) to the “
m” (OFF) position.
aCAUTION
Do not leave the ignition on if you have stopped the engine
by moving the engine stop switch to the “
m” (OFF) position
as this will discharge the battery.
When the vehicle has come to rest after stopping the engine
with the engine stop switch, turn the ignition switch (A) to
the “
m” (OFF) position.
2) STARTER SWITCH (
r)
When the starter switch is depressed, the starter is engaged
and the engine will start. For starting, see p. 50 (STARTING).
