If "Spark knock" or "pinking" occurs at a steady
engine speed under normal load, change petrol
brand. If the same still persists, consult your
Authorised Hero MotoCorp workshop. Failure
to do so is considered misuse, and damage
caused by misuse is not covered under Hero
MotoCorp warranty policy.
NOTE
If you decide to use a petrol containing alcohol
(gasohol), be sure its octane rating is at least as
high as that recommended by Hero MotoCorp.
Petrol containing alcohol
There are two types of "gasohol", one
containing ethanol, and the other containing
methanol.
î When certain type of petrol containing
alcohols are used, problems such as hard
starting, poor performance, etc. may occur.
Do not use petrol that contains more than
10% of ethanol.
Do not use petrol containing methanol
(methyl or wood alcohol) that does not
contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors for
methanol.
î When a problem resulting from the use of
petrol containing alcohol occurs, contact your
Authorised Hero MotoCorp workshop.
î If you notice any undesirable operating
symptoms while using the petrol that
contains alcohol, try another station or
switch to another brand of petrol.
Never use petrol containing more than 5%
methanol, even if it has cosolvents and
corrosion inhibitors.
CAUTION
When the fuel level indicator displays the last
segment in the fuel gauge, the fuel quantity in
the fuel tank is low. Please fill petrol once the
fuel level indicator reaches the last segment.
WARNING
î Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks and
flame away.
Petrol is highly flammable and explosive.
You can be burned or seriously injured when
handling fuel.
î Refuel only outdoors.
î Wipe off spills immediately.
