Engine break-in
There is never a more important period
in the life of your engine than the period
between 0 and 1,000 km. For this
reason, you should read the following
material carefully.
Since the engine is brand new, do not
put an excessive load on it for the first
1,000 km. The various parts in the
engine wear and polish themselves to
the correct operating clearances.
During this period, prolonged full-
throttle operation or any condition that
might result in engine overheating must
be avoided.
EAUT0003*
0 — 150 km
Avoid operation above 1/3 throttle. Stop
the engine and let it cool for 5 to 10
minutes after every hour of operation.
Vary the speed of the scooter from time
to time. Do not operate it at one set
throttle position.150 — 500 km
Avoid prolonged operation above 1/2
throttle.
