TIP
This model is equipped with:
z a lean angle sensor. This sensor
stops the engine in case of a turn-
over. In this case, the display will
indicate error code 30, but this is
not a malfunction. Turn the main
switch off and then on to clear the
error code. Failing to do so will
prevent the engine from starting
even though the engine will crank
when pushing the start switch.
z an engine auto-stop system. The
engine stops automatically if left
idling for 20 minutes. If the engine
stops, simply push the start
switch to restart the engine.
