•
Grip the two connectors and disconnect them by pulling them in opposite directions.
•
If any signs of dirt, rust, moisture, etc. are noted, clean the inside of the connector carefully
with a jet of compressed air.
•
Ensure that the cables are correctly fastened to the internal connector terminals.
•
Then connect the two connectors, ensuring that they couple correctly (if fitted with clips, you
will hear them "click" into place).
CAUTION
DO NOT DISCONNECT CONNECTORS BY PULLING THE CABLES.
NOTE
THE TWO CONNECTORS CAN ONLY BE CONNECTED IN ONE DIRECTION: CONNECT THEM
THE RIGHT WAY ROUND.
TIGHTENING TORQUES
CAUTION
REMEMBER THAT THE TIGHTENING TORQUES FOR ALL FASTENING ELEMENTS ON WHEELS,
BRAKES, WHEEL AXLES AND ANY OTHER SUSPENSION COMPONENTS PLAY A KEY ROLE
IN ENSURING VEHICLE SAFETY AND MUST COMPLY WITH SPECIFIED VALUES. CHECK THE
TIGHTENING TORQUES OF FASTENING ELEMENTS ON A REGULAR BASIS AND ALWAYS USE
A TORQUE WRENCH TO REASSEMBLE THESE COMPONENTS. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH
THESE RECOMMENDATIONS MAY CAUSE ONE OF THESE COMPONENTS TO LOOSEN OR
EVEN DETACH, CAUSING A WHEEL TO LOCK OR COMPROMISING VEHICLE HANDLING. THIS
MAY LEAD TO FALLS, WITH THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Running-in
Engine run-in is essential to ensure engine long life and correct operation. Twisty roads and gradients
are ideal to run in engine, brakes and suspensions effectively. Vary your riding speed during the run-
in. This ensures that components operate under both "loaded" and "unloaded" conditions, allowing the
engine components to cool.
CAUTION
THE FULL PERFORMANCE OF THE VEHICLE IS ONLY AVAILABLE AFTER THE SERVICE AT
THE END OF THE RUN-IN PERIOD.
Follow the guidelines detailed below:
•
Do not twist the throttle grip abruptly and completely when the engine is working at a low
revs, either during or after run-in.
•
During the first 100 Km (62 miles) use the brakes gently, avoiding sudden or prolonged
braking. That is to permit the adequate adjustment of the pad friction material to the brake
discs.
•
It is recommended, during the first 1000 km (621 mi), not to exceed 7500 rpm and 9500 rpm
up 2000 km (1243 mi).
AFTER THE SPECIFIED MILEAGE, TAKE YOUR VEHICLE TO AN Official Aprilia Dealer FOR THE
CHECKS INDICATED IN THE "PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE" TABLE IN THE SCHEDULED MAIN-
