use and maintenance Scarabeo 125 - Scarabeo 250

Most road accidents are caused by inexperienced riders. NEVER lend your vehicle to a beginner and make sure any person borrowing your vehicle fills the legal requirements for driving. Strictly observe all posted signs and national and local road regulations. Avoid any sudden or risky manoeuvres that may endanger your and other people's safety (for example: wheelies, speeding, etc.), and adjust your riding style to road surface conditions, visibility, etc.

Avoid obstacles that could damage the vehicle or make you lose control of the vehicle. Avoid riding in the slipstream of vehicles ahead in order to increase your speed.

WARNING Always hold the handlebars with both hands and keep both feet on the footpegs (or on the rider's footboards), in the correct riding position. Do not stand up or stretch your limbs while riding.

Scarabeo_uk.book Page 7 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 11:49 AM ONLY ORIGINALS The driver should pay attention and avoid distractions caused by people, things and movements (never smoke, eat, drink, read, etc.) while driving. Use only the specified fuels and lubricants indicated in the "LUBRICANT CHART" and check oil, fuel and coolant levels at regular intervals. If the vehicle has been involved in an accident, check the control levers, pipes and hoses, wires, the braking system and key components for damage.

If necessary, have the vehicle inspected by an aprilia Authorised Dealer who should carefully check the frame, handlebars, suspensions, safety parts and all the devices that you cannot check by yourself. Remember to report any malfunction to the technicians and/or mechanics to facilitate their work. Never use the vehicle when the amount of damage it has suffered makes it unsafe to ride. Never change the position, inclination or colour of: number plate, turn indicators, lights and horns. Any modification made to the vehicle will invalidate the warranty.

Making any modifications to the vehicle and/or removing the original components can adversely affect vehicle performance and safety or make it illegal to ride.

Scarabeo_uk.book Page 8 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 11:49 AM CLOTHING Always wear and fasten your helmet correctly before moving off. Make sure your helmet complies with applicable regulations, is not damaged, is the right size and keep the visor clean. Wear protective clothing, preferably bright and/or reflective clothing. This will ensure you are easily seen by other road users and reduce the risk of an accident, besides affording improved protection in the event of a fall. Wear tight-fitting clothing fastened at the wrists and ankles; make sure no strings, belts and ties are hanging loose; make sure no items of clothing or other objects can distract you or become entangled with moving parts or with the handlebars.

use and maintenance Scarabeo 125 - Scarabeo 250

Do not ride with sharp or pointed objects in your pockets as they might cause injury in the event of a fall (this includes keys, pens, glass vials, etc. - note that the same applies to your passenger).

ACCESSORIES The owner of the vehicle is responsible for the choice, installation and use of any accessory. Any accessories installed must not cover the horns or lights or impair their operation, restrict suspension travel and steering angle, impair the operation of any vehicle controls or affect ground clearance or bank angle in a bend. Avoid using accessories that may hamper access to vehicle controls, as this can slow down your reaction in an emergency. Large fairings and windshields may affect the vehicle's aerodynamics and make it unstable, especially at high speeds.

Scarabeo_uk.book Page 9 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 11:49 AM Make sure any accessories installed are fastened securely to the vehicle and will not affect safety during riding. Do not install or modify any electric devices in such a manner as to exceed vehicle capacity, as this may lead to a power shortage or failure causing the engine to stop suddenly or rendering the horn and lights inoperative. aprilia recommends the use of genuine accessories (aprilia genuine accessories).

LOAD Avoid fixing bulky, heavy and/or dangerous objects to the handlebars, mudguards and forks - this could slow down the vehicle's response in turns and would inevitably affect handling. Do not secure bulky bags to the vehicle sides, as they could hit people or obstacles when riding, resulting in loss of control.

Do not carry any luggage unless firmly secured to the vehicle. Do not carry bags which protrude too much from the luggage-rack or which cover the lights, horn or indicators. Do not carry animals or children on the glove compartment or on the luggage rack. Do not exceed the maximum load capacity of each luggage rack. The overloaded vehicle will become unstable and handle poorly.

Be careful not to overload the vehicle with exceeding luggage. Place your luggage as close as possible to the centre of gravity of the vehicle and make sure its weight is evenly distributed across both sides of the vehicle to keep it stable. Make sure that the luggage is firmly secured to the vehicle, especially before long trips. use and maintenance Scarabeo 125 - Scarabeo 250

Scarabeo_uk.book Page 19 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 11:49 AM MAIN COMPONENTS FUEL LUBRICANTS WARNING The fuel used in internal combustion engines is highly flammable and can become explosive under particular conditions. It is important to refuel and service the vehicle in a well-ventilated area, with the engine off. Do not smoke while refuelling or near fuel vapours, in any case avoid contact with naked flames, sparks and any other heat source or source of ignition to prevent fires or explosion. Avoid spilling fuel, as it may ignite when in contact with hot engine parts. In the event of accidental spillage, make sure that the area has completely dried before starting the engine. Never fill the tank to the rim, as fuel expands from heat and when left under direct sunlight. Tighten the filler plug securely after refuelling. Avoid contact with skin, do not inhale fuel vapours; do not swallow fuel or transfer it between different receptacles using a hose.

WARNING Prolonged or repeated contact with oil may cause severe skin damage. Wash your hands carefully after handling engine oil. Wear latex gloves during servicing. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN. DO NOT DISPOSE OF OIL IN TH E ENVIRONMENT DO NOT RELEASE FUEL INTO THE ENVIRONMENT. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN. Use only premium grade leaded petrol (4 Stars) or unleaded petrol with 95 RON and 85 MON octane rating minimum. TANK CAPACITY (reserve included): 8.9 b TANK RESERVE: 2 b To reach the filler plug, proceed as follows: u Raise the seat, see page 17 (UNLOCKING/LOCKING THE SEAT). u Unscrew the filler plug (1).

ENGINE OIL Periodically check the engine oil level, see page 37 (CHECKING AND TOPPING UP ENGINE OIL LEVEL)

CAUTION Use oil with specifications 5/W 40, see page 59 (LUBRICANT CHART).

DISC BRAKES WARNING CAUTION When topping up the engine oil, never exceed the "MAX" level. It is necessary to have the engine oil changed after the first 1000 km (625 mi) and successively: – every 6000 km (3750 mi) have the engine oil changed – periodically check engine oil level/top up. Have engine oil changed at an aprilia Authorised dealer.

BRAKE FLUID - recommendations

CAUTION This vehicle is fitted with front and rear disc brakes. Each braking system is operated by an independent hydraulic circuit. The following information applies to both braking systems.

WARNING Sudden changes in brake lever play or a spongy feel of the lever may indicate problems with the hydraulic system. If in doubt about the braking efficiency of your bike or if you are not able to perform routine checks, contact an aprilia Authorised dealer.

WARNING Pay special attention to the brake disc and friction material, making sure that they are neither dirty nor oily, especially after maintenance operations or inspections. 20

use and maintenance Scarabeo 125 - Scarabeo 250

The brakes are critical to your safety and must always be kept in sleek running order. Check the brakes before each ride. A dirty disc will soil the pads, leading to loss of braking efficiency. Dirty pads must be replaced, while dirty discs must be cleaned with a high-quality degreaser. Have brake fluid changed at an aprilia Authorised dealer every two years.

Scarabeo_uk.book Page 21 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 11:49 AM If the fluid is below the "MIN" mark:

CAUTION Brake fluid level decreases as the brake pads wear down. u Check the brake pads for wear, see page 39 (CHECKING THE BRAKE PADS FOR WEAR) and brake disc. If the pads and/or the disc do not need replacing: u Contact an aprilia Authorised Dealer, who will provide for topping up.

CAUTION This vehicle is fitted with front and rear disc brakes. Each braking system is operated by an independent hydraulic circuit. The following information applies to both braking systems.

CHECK To check the brake fluid level, proceed as follows:

Brake fluid level decreases gradually as the brake pads wear down. The brake reservoirs are positioned on the handlebar, near the brake lever couplings. Periodically check the brake fluid level in the reservoirs, see on the side (CHECK) and the wear of the pads, see page 39 (CHECKING THE BRAKE PADS FOR WEAR).

WARNING CAUTION Position the vehicle on firm and flat ground. u

CAUTION Check the brake for proper operation. When the brake lever has exceeding travel or if you notice a loss of braking, contact an aprilia Authorised Dealer. The braking system may need bleeding.

Position the vehicle on the centre stand. Remove turn indicator plastic protections. Rotate the handlebar, so that the fluid contained in the brake reservoir is parallel to the "MIN" mark stamped on the glass gauge (1). Make sure that the fluid contained in the reservoir exceeds the "MIN" mark stamped on the glass gauge (1). MIN = minimum level.

Do not use the vehicle if the braking system is leaking fluid.

Scarabeo_uk.book Page 22 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 11:49 AM COOLANT CAUTION Do not ride when coolant is below the minimum level MIN. Periodically check the coolant level and every time after long trips; have the coolant changed by an aprilia Authorised Dealer every 2 years.

WARNING Coolant is toxic when ingested. Contact with eyes or skin may cause irritation. In the event of contact with eyes or skin, rinse repeatedly with abundant water and seek medical advice. In the event of ingestion, induce vomiting, rinse mouth and throat with abundant water and seek medical advice immediately. DO NOT RELEASE INTO THE ENVIRONMENT. KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN. Take care not to spill coolant onto hot engine parts. It may ignite and produce invisible flames. Wear latex gloves during servicing. Have the coolant changed at an aprilia Authorised Dealer.

use and maintenance Scarabeo 125 - Scarabeo 250

Coolant mixture is a 50% solution of water and antifreeze. This is the ideal solution for most operating temperatures and provides good corrosion protection. This solution is also suited to the warm season, as the mixture is less prone to evaporative loss and will reduce the need for top-ups. In addition, less water evaporation means fewer mineral salts depositing in the radiator, which helps preserve the efficiency of the cooling system. When temperature drops below zero degrees centigrade, check the cooling system frequently and add more antifreeze (up to 60% maximum) to the solution.

Use distilled water in the coolant mixture. Tap water will damage the engine.

WARNING Do not remove the expansion tank plug (1) when the engine is hot, since coolant is very hot and under pressure. Contact with skin or clothes, may cause severe scalding and/or damage.

Scarabeo_uk.book Page 23 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 11:49 AM CHECKING AND TOPPING UP WARNING Wait for the engine to cool down before checking or topping up coolant level. u Stop the engine and wait until it has cooled down.

CAUTION Position the vehicle on firm and flat ground. u

Remove the front inspection cover, see page 42 (REMOVING THE FRONT INSPECTION COVER). Make sure that the level of the fluid contained in the expansion tank (2) is included between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks. MIN = minimum level. MAX = maximum level

If not so: u Loosen the filler plug (1) (by turning it anticlockwise by two turns), without removing it. u Wait a few seconds in order to release any residual pressure.

CAUTION A breather pipe (3) is connected to the plug (1). Neither force, nor disconnect the breather pipe (3). u

Unscrew and remove the cap (1).

WARNING Coolant is toxic when ingested. Contact with eyes or skin may cause irritation. Do not put your fingers or any other object into the filler opening in order to ensure that there is coolant.

CAUTION Never top up beyond the "MAX" level mark or coolant will leak out when the engine is running. u Top up with coolant, see page 59 (LUBRICANT CHART) up to just below the "MAX" mark. u Refit the filler plug (1).

CAUTION If coolant level drops too quickly or the tank is empty, check the cooling circuit for leaks. Have the repair carried out at an aprilia Authorised dealer. u Refit the front inspection cover, see page 42 (REMOVING THE FRONT INSPECTION COVER).

Scarabeo_uk.book Page 24 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 11:49 AM TYRES This vehicle is equipped with tubeless tyres.

WARNING Periodically check the tyre inflation pressure at room temperature, see page 56 (TECHNICAL DATA). Measuring pressure on hot tyres will lead to inaccurate measurement. It is especially important to measure tyre pressure before and after a long trip. Overinflated tyres will not absorb bumps when riding on rough road surfaces and resulting vibration is transferred through the handlebar, giving a harsh ride and reducing tyre grip especially during cornering.

use and maintenance Scarabeo 125 - Scarabeo 250

Conversely, underinflation will put more stress on the sidewalls (1) and the tyre may slip on the rim or even come off the rim, leading to loss of control. The tyres could come off the rims under harsh braking. Finally, the vehicle could skid during cornering. Inspect tyre surface condition and check for wear, as worn tyres lead to poor road holding and handling.

Some of the tyres approved for this vehicle are equipped with wear indicators. There are several kinds of wear indicators. For more information on how to check the tyres for wear, contact your Dealer. Visually inspect the tyres for wear and have them changed if worn. Old tyres, even if not completely worn down, may become hard and provide poor grip. In this case, have the tyres changed. Have a tyre changed when worn or punctured, if the puncture in the tread is larger than 5 mm. Have the wheels balanced after each tyre repair. Use only tyres in the size suggested by aprilia, see page 56 (TECHNICAL DATA). Do not install tube tyres on tubeless tyre rims or vice versa. Always check that the caps are in place on the valves , or the tyres may deflate suddenly.

Scarabeo_uk.book Page 25 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 11:49 AM EXHAUST MUFFLER/EXHAUST SILENCER WARNING Tyre replacement and repair, as well as wheel servicing and balancing are delicate operations. They should be carried out using adequate tools and are best left to experienced mechanics. Have your tyres and wheels serviced at an aprilia Authorised Dealeror a specialised tyre repairer. New tyres may be coated with an oily film: ride carefully until covering several kilometres. Never apply nonspecific products to the tyres.

MINIMUM RECOMMENDED TREAD DEPTH (2) front: 2 mm (7 3 mm) rear: 2 mm (7 3 mm)

Tampering with the noise control system is prohibited. Owners are warned that the law may forbid: – The removal or disconnection of any device or element of design incorporated into any new vehicle to limit the noise emissions before its sale or delivery to the final purchaser or while it is in use except if carried out for maintenance, repair or replacement purposes; and – the use of the vehicle after such device or element of design has been removed or rendered inoperative by any person. Check the exhaust muffler/silencer and the silencer pipes, making sure that they show no traces of rust or holes and that the exhaust system is operating properly. If the exhaust system noise increases, contact an aprilia Authorised Dealerimmediately.

use and maintenance Scarabeo 125 - Scarabeo 250

WARNING Do not open and close the throttle repeatedly and continuously, or you may lose control of the vehicle. When you need to brake, close the throttle and use both brakes for smooth braking; take care to apply the right amount of pressure to both brakes. Using one brake only gives less braking power and you could lock a wheel and lose grip. To stop uphill, decelerate completely and use the brakes to keep the vehicle at standstill. Do not use engine braking or the clutch may overheat.

When approaching a turn, slow down or brake and take the turn at moderate, constant speed or accelerate slightly; braking in a turn will greatly increase your chances of skidding. Continued application of the brakes on long downhill grades may cause the brakes to overheat, thereby reducing braking efficiency. Shift down to use engine braking and apply both brakes intermittently. Never ride downhill with the engine off! If the road surface is wet or slippery (snow, ice, mud, etc.), ride slowly, do not brake or swerve suddenly, or you may lose grip and fall. Watch out for obstacles or sudden changes in the road surface. Rough roads, rails, manhole covers, road markings, large steel plates near roadwork become slippery in the wet and should be avoided or negotiated with the greatest care, riding carefully and keeping the vehicle upright.

Scarabeo_uk.book Page 31 Wednesday, March 24, 2004 11:49 AM STOPPING WARNING Signal your intention to change lane or turn in good time using the turn indicators and avoid sudden swerving or movements. Switch off the turn indicators as soon as you have finished turning. Be extremely careful when overtaking or being overtaken. When riding in the rain, the spray thrown up by the tyres of large vehicles will reduce your vision; the air wave created by a large vehicle may make you lose control of the vehicle.

RUNNING-IN WARNING After the first 1000 km (625 mi), carry out the checking operations indicated in the column "After running-in" of the REGULAR SERVICE INTERVALS CHART, see page 34, in order to avoid hurting yourself or other people and/or damaging the vehicle. Correct engine running-is essential to ensuring proper performance and durability. Twisty, hilly roads are ideal for an effective running-in of engine, suspension and brakes.

CAUTION Only after the first 500 km (312 mi) o f r u n n i n g - i n i t i s possible to obtain the best speed and acceleration performance from the vehicle.

WARNING If you can, do not stop or slow down suddenly and avoid limit-braking. u Release the throttle grip (pos. A) and gradually put on the brakes to stop the vehicle. u If you need to stop only briefly, keep at least one brake applied. PARKING Follow these recommendations: u Do not open the throttle completely if the speed is low, both during and after the running-in. u

0-100 km (0-62 mi) Until you have covered the first 100 km (62 mi), use the brakes gently and avoid harsh, prolonged braking. This will help the brake pads bed in properly against the brake discs. 0-500 km (0-312 mi) During the first 500 km (312 mi), do not exceed the 80% of the maximum allowed speed. Avoid driving at constant speed for long distances. After the first 1000 km (625 mi), progressively increase the speed until reaching the highest performance levels.

WARNING Park the vehicle on firm and level ground, to prevent it from falling. Do not lean the vehicle against a wall, or lay it on the ground. Make sure that the vehicle, and in particular hot vehicle components, may not put the safety of persons and children at risk.
