Headlight Dimmer Switch
High or low beam can be selected with the
headlight dimmer switch. To select high
beam, push the switch forward. To select low
beam, push the switch rearwards. When the
high beam is turned on, the high beam
indicator light will illuminate.
Note:
• A lighting on/off switch is not
fitted to this model. The position,
rear light and license plate light all
function automatically when the
ignition is turned to the ON
position.
• The headlight will only function
when the ignition switch is turned
to the ON position and the engine
is running.
An alternative to turn on the
headlight, without the engine
running, is to pull the clutch lever
then turn the ignition switch to the
ON position. The headlight will be
on and remain on when the clutch
lever is released.
The headlight will go off while
pressing the starter button until
the engine starts.
