WARNING
Running the engine indoors or in a
garage can be hazardous. Exhaust gas
contains carbon monoxide, a gas that is
colorless and odorless and can cause
death or severe injury.
Only run the engine outdoors where
there is fresh air.

riding may cause the engine to overheat.
Overheating can result in damage to
internal engine components and discol-
oration of exhaust pipes.
Shut the engine off if you cannot begin
your ride promptly.
