1.4. RUNNING-IN
1.4.1. RUNNING-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
The running-in of the engine is primary to ensure its correct functioning and long life.
If possible, drive on hilly roads and/or roads with many bends, so that the engine, the suspensions and the brakes un-
dergo a more effective running-in.
For the first 500 km (312 mi), keep to the following indications:
•
0 -100 km (0- 62 mi)
.
During the first 100 km (62 mi) put on the brakes with caution, avoiding sharp and prolonged brakings. This ensures a
correct bedding-in of the pads on the brake disc.
•
0- 300 km (0- 187 mi).
Do not keep the throttle grip open more than one half for long stretches.
•
300- 500 km (187- 312 mi).
Do not keep the throttle grip open more than three-fourths for long stretches.
WARNING
After the first 500 km (312 mi), carry out the checking operations indicated in the column “After run-
ning-in” of the REGULAR SERVICE INTERVALS CHART, see p. 45, in order to avoid hurting yourself or
other people and/or damaging the vehicle
