SUGGESTIONS TO PREVENT
THEFT
CAUTION
When a disk lock is used, remember to
remove it before moving off. Failure to
heed this warning can seriously damage
the braking system and lead to an
accident thus provoking serious injuries
or death.
NEVER leave the key in the ignition switch
and always use the steering lock. Park the
vehicle in a safe place, possibly in a garage
or at a guarded parking place. When
possible, use an additional anti-theft device.
Make sure you have all the necessary
documents with you and that the excise tax
has been paid. Write your personal data
and telephone number in this page to help
trace the vehicle back to you in the event it
is stolen and subsequently recovered.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Fire hazard.
Keep fuel and other flammable
substances away from electric
components.
Before proceeding to service or inspect
of the vehicle, stop the engine and
remove the key from the ignition, wait for
the engine and the exhaust system to
cool down and, if possible, lift the
vehicle using adequate lifting equipment
placed on firm and level ground.
Ensure the area is well ventilated before
proceeding.
Be careful not to touch hot engine and
exhaust system parts that might burn
you.
Do not put any vehicle parts into your
mouth: vehicle components are not
edible and some of them are harmful or
even toxic.
CAUTION
Unless expressly indicated otherwise,
reassembly is a reversal of the
disassembly procedure.
Wear latex gloves during servicing.
Normally, scheduled maintenance can be
carried out by the owner, although some
operations may require specific tools and
technical training.
For periodic maintenance, servicing or
technical advice, contact a Moto Guzzi
Authorized Dealer, who will ensure prompt,
accurate service.
Ask your Moto Guzzi Authorized Dealer to
carry out a road test after a repair or
scheduled maintenance operation.
In addition, perform the "Pre-ride checks"
after each maintenance operation, see page
62 (PRE-RIDE CHECKS CHART).
NOTE This vehicle is equipped with an
electronic engine control unit capable of
detecting abnormal operation in real time
and storing faults.
Any time the ignition switch is set to “ ”,
the light “” on the instrument panel
comes on for three seconds.
CAUTION
If the alarm LED “ ” and the “
SERVICE” diagnosis icon come on
during engine normal operation, it
means that the control unit has detected
a failure. In most cases, the engine will
keep running, although giving less
performance. Immediately contact a
Moto Guzzi Authorized Dealer.
