INTERRUPTEUR DES FEUX CLIGNOTANTS

Fuel is extremely flammable. Always refuel in an open area and away from all fire sources (cigarettes, sparks,

openflames) after switching offthe engine.

While refuelling, stop the fuel from coming into contact with the hoi engine surfaces as it may flare up. If any fuel is spilt while refuelling, carefully wipe the fuel filler before starling the engine. Be sure lo close the tank cap tight after refuelling.

Never fill the tank to the rim as the heat of the sun causes fuel vapors to increase in volume.

Prevent the fuel from coming into contact with the eyes or the skin. In case of contact wash generously with running water. Do not inhale the fuel fumes. Avoid ingesting fuel.

The filler cap is located under the saddle. The fueltank capacity is 6 litres. Only use unleaded petrol with a minimum octane number of 95 RON/85 MON.

The warning light (1) located in the dashboard dial (Fig.1) lights up when the autonomy of operation left is about 40 Km.

LIVELLO OLIO MOTORE

In the 4T engines, the engine oil is used to lubricate the distribution elements, the main bearings and the thermal group.

Operating the scooter with insufficient oil can damage the engine.

In all 4T engines, a loss of efficiency in oil performance and some oil consumption should be considered normal. Consumption can particularly reflect the condition of use (i.e. when driving at "full speed" all time, oil consumption increases).

The replacement intervals indicated by the maintenance chart are defined according to the total oil content in the engine and the average consumption levels measured following standardised methods.

In order to prevent any problems, we recommend checking oil level every time you ride your scooter.

LEVEL CHECK

• Check the oil level as indicated in the maintenance tables.
• Park the vehicle on its centre stand.

NOTE

Every time the scooter is used, check engine oil level when the engine is cold.

NIVEAU D' HUILE MOTEUR

-Unscrew and take out the measuring tap-dipstick 1 (fig. 2).

-Clean the area in contact with oil with a clean cloth.

-Screw the tap-dipstick 1 completely in its tube 2.

-Remove the tap-dipstick 1 again and read the level the oil reaches on the dipstick.

-The level is correct when it is close to maximum notch marked on the measuring dipstick.

-Top up if necessary.

The MAX level reference indicates a quantity of about 700 cc of oil in the engine. If the check is carried out after the vehicle has been used, and therefore with a hot engine, the level line will be lower; in order to carry out a correct check, it is necessary to wait for at least 10 minutes after the engine has been stopped so as to get the correct level.

OIL TOP UP

Tou up engine oil as indicated in the maintenance tables. According to the scheduled maintenance tables, take the vehicle to an Benelli Official Dealer regularly to have engine oil checked and topped up if necessary.

Any topping up with oil must be carried out after cheking oil level and by adding oil but never exceeding the max level.

ENGINE OIL AND FILTER REPLACEMENT

Oil change and filter cleaning should be carried out as indicated in the scheduled maintenance tables at an Official Benelli Dealer. The engine should be emptied by draining the oil through the drainage plug 2. After cleaning and refitting the mesh filter and screwing the plug 2, add about 700 cc of oil through the plug 1.

Then, start the scooter, leave it running for a few seconds and switch it off: after 5 minutes check the level, and if necessary, top up without exceeding the MAX level. Always use new oil at every top-up or change.

Do not ride the scooter with insufficient oil or with inadequate lubricants as this accelerates the wear and tear of the moving parts and can cause serious damage.

MARMITTA CATALITICA

The catalytic muffler reaches high temperatures.

• Avoid parking the vehicle near inflammables.
• Do not park the vehicle in places within the reach of children.
  • Take care not to touch the muffler unless it has cooled down completely.

The muffler function is to extract the exhaust gas from the cylinder, cool them and emit them to the outside, as well as to reduce the sound pollution (noise) within the limits stated by the Euro regulations.

Never use leaded gasoline as it will cause the catalyst poisoning making it inefficient.

Tables of scheduled maintenance and checks

WARNING

Impropriety or lack of recommended maintenance operations can lead to an increase of the risk of accidents and damage to the motorcycle.

Always use genuine Benelli Q.J. spare parts. Using non-genuine spare parts can accelerate the wear of your motorcycle and shorten its life.

Failure to perform the recommended operations, as well as using non-genuine spare parts, can cause the unoperativeness of the legal guaranty.

To replace or top up the lubricants and fluids of your motorcycle, use only the suitable products.

PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT

Benelli Q.J., in order to protect the interests of the community, awakens Customers and the Technical Assistance operators to use the vehicle and dispose of its replaced parts respecting the laws in force concerning environmental pollution and waste disposal and recycling.

The main periodic checks and maintenance operations are shown in the following tables. These operations are necessary to keep themotorcycle safe and in perfect running order.

The intervals indicated in the periodic maintenance and lubrication tables must be intended as a general guide under normal riding conditions. It could be necessary to reduce these intervals according to the climate, the ground conditions, the geographic position and the conditions of use. Some of the operations can be carried out by the user, providing he or she possesses the requisite skills and, however, only when explicitly scheduled in this Owner's Manual. In any other case have the operations performed by a Benelli Authorized Workshop, whose list is available on the web site www.benelli.com or calling the Benelli Couser Service dialling +39 0721.418740.

As a rule maintenance operations must be performed while the scooter is on the rear stand after switching of the engine and setting the start switch to OFF. On the contrary, while checking the fluid levels it is advisable to keep the motorcycle in an upright position without using the rear stand.

Tables of scheduled maintenance

NOTE:

The annual checks must be performed every year, except if a kilometer-based maintenance is performed instead.

• From 14.000 Km, repeat the maintenance intervals starting from 3.500 Km.
- Items marked with an "O" should be performed by a Benelli dealer as they require special tools, data and technical skills.
