This handbook should be read and understood before using the vehicle. To use this vehicle it is necessary to have fulfilled
all the requirements of law (driving licence, minimum age, insurance, government taxes, registration, number plate, etc.).
The taking of certain medicines, alcohol and narcotics or a state of physical fatigue and somnolence may considerably
increase the risk of accidents as they affect the body.
If the rider is inexperienced, it is advisable to become familiar with the vehicle on sections of road with little traffic. NEVER
lend the vehicle to inexperienced persons and in any case ensure that the person has the necessary qualifications for riding
the vehicle.
The Highway Code must be meticulously observed when riding the vehicle. It is absolutely forbidden to race with the
vehicles outside special authorised circuits supervised by appointed personnel. Avoid riding off-road.
Always ride correctly, avoiding manoeuvres that are abrupt or dangerous for yourself and others (e.g.: wheeling , remaining
in the slipstream of the vehicles in front, failing to comply with speed limits, etc.). Assess and always take into due
consideration road conditions, visibility, etc. Always keep both hands on the handlebars in order to steer properly and
always keep both feet on the relative footrests. Under no circumstances is it allowed to stand up or to stretch out limbs
while riding.
While riding it is a good rule to pay the utmost attention, avoiding being distracted or influenced by persons, things, actions
(e.g. do not smoke, eat, drink, read, etc.). The vehicle should always be kept in perfect condition, checking that the fuel,
brake fluid and coolant are always within the recommended levels. Only use specific lubricants and fuels of the type
indicated in the relative tables for the vehicle in question.
After a fall, check all the controls, levers, pipes, cables, braking systems, wheels and tyres for damage. If any damage is
found, do not ride the vehicle, but have it suitably transported (complying with safety and legal regulations) to a FANTIC
MOTOR authorised dealer.
It is forbidden to change in any way whatsoever the position, angle or colour of: number plate, turn indicators,
lighting devices and horns. Do not make technical changes to increase performance or to alter the original
characteristics of the vehicle in any way.
Such changes lead to cancellation of the warranty and may jeopardise the performance and therefore decrease the level of
safety of the vehicle or even make it illegal and subject to penal sanctions.
Compliance with all legal provisions as well as national and local regulations regarding vehicle equipment is recommended
at all times.
