The first 1000 km is a crucial part for the life of your scooter. Proper running-in operation during this period helps in ensuring a maximum life and smooth performance of your scooter.

The reliability and performance of your scooter depends on the special care and restraint exercised during the running-in period. It is especially important that you avoid operating the engine in high speed (RPM), which could expose the engine parts to excessive stress. Maximum recommended speed during the running-in is:

Maximum 50 kmph speed upto 1000 km (vary the engine speed for better mating of parts).

The first free service at 500 \~ 750 km is most important. During running-in period all the engine components and other parts will have set in. All adjustments to be restored, all fasteners to be tightened. Engine and transmission oil to be replaced. Timely performance of the first free service will ensure optimum service life and performance from the engine.

Caution

Replacing the engine and transmission oil during first free service is most important for better life of engine. Always use TVS TRU4 PREMIUM oil (SAE 10W30 SL-JASO MA2) for better performance and life.

SAFE RIDING RECOMMENDATIONS

Any two wheeler riding requires some precautions to be taken to ensure the safety of the rider, pillion and other road users. These precautions are:

Familiarise yourself with new Scooty Zest Riding skill and your mechanical knowledge form the foundation of safe riding practices. We suggest you to practice riding Scooty Zest 110 in a low-traffic condition until you are thoroughly familiar with your vehicle and its controls. Remember practice makes you perfect.

Riding apparel

Loose, fancy clothing can be uncomfortable and unsafe when riding a two-wheeler. Choose good quality two wheeler riding apparel.

Know your limits

Ride within the boundaries of your own skill at all times. Knowing these limits and staying within the limits will help you avoid accidents.

Posture

Proper vehicle riding starts with proper posture.

1. Keep your elbows inside close to the body and flexible.

Warning

Two wheeler safety equipment starts with a safety helmet of good quality. One of the most serious injuries that can happen is a head injury. Always wear ISI approved helmet. You should also have good suitable eye protection.

One-hand riding is dangerous. Keep both hands firmly on the handle bar and both feet securely on the floor board. Under no circumstances should both the hands be removed from the handle bar, as it is very dangerous.

Avoid use of mobile phones while riding as it could lead to fatal accident.

1. Hold your arms at an angle of about 120°.
2. Hips should be in a position so that arms and shoulders are relaxed.
3. Look widely instead of gazing at one point.
4. Relax to guard against a sudden impact.
5. Point the toes straight ahead.

Cornering

When cornering, centrifugal force works in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the vehicle is moving. Centrifugal force increases in proportion with speed and radius of the corner.

During cornering, reduce speed so as to lessen the effects of centrifugal force. By all means, avoid abrupt application of brake or sudden steering.

Warning

Slow down to a safe speed before negotiating a corner. If this is the first time that you are riding a vehicle of this type, we suggest that you practice on a safe, open area to become thoroughly familiar with the operation of the vehicle.

Braking

For safe riding, it is very important to master the braking techniques.

1. Close/release the throttle.
2. Hold the vehicle upright as you apply the brake.

3. Progressive application of brake is safer.

4. Apply both the brakes.

5. Riding down hills, while cornering and wet roads close throttle and come to a slower speed to avoid the loss of control over the vehicle due to skidding.

Causes for poor braking

1. If the brake shoes or drum are worn out or if there is water or oil on them, sufficient friction does not develop and brakes do not work well.
2. Even when the brake works normally, if the road surface is wet or the tyre surface is worn-out, tyres do not take a firm hold on the surface, increasing the stopping distance.
3. Approximately 60% braking effect is from front brake. Non-usage of front brake causes poor braking.

Warning

As the vehicle speed increases, the stopping distance also increases progressively. Be sure that, you have sufficient distance between you and the vehicle or obstruction ahead of you. Avoid directing the water jet directly towards brake drums during water wash.

Warning

Using only the front or rear brake is dangerous and can cause skidding and loss of control. Apply both the brakes together and with great care on a wet road or other slippery surfaces. Any abrupt braking on slippery or irregular roads can cause loss of rider control.

ACCESSORY INSTALLATION AND SAFETY TIPS

Use extreme caution while selecting and installing the accessories for your scooter.

The addition of unsuitable accessories can lead to unsafe operating conditions. Your friendly Dealer will assist you in selecting quality accessories and installing them correctly.

While selecting the accessories, make sure the accessories should not obstruct lighting, steerability, suspension level and ground clearance. Additional electrical equipments and controls should not exceed the specified electrical system load of the vehicle (capacity of battery and magneto).

EMISSION CONTROL

All the TVS vehicles are tested in the factory for optimum fuel efficiency and lowest possible CO levels. Do not disturb the Carburettor settings as this may lead to higher fuel consumption and also higher CO levels.

If the vehicle needs any adjustments, please consult nearest TVS Motor Company Authorised Main Dealer or Authorised Dealer.

While adequate care is exercised at the factory to ensure that the emissions are within the limits, it is essential for the owner to always maintain the scooter in good condition by getting it periodically checked and serviced by TVS Motor Company Authorised Main Dealer or Authorised Dealer so that the emission and fuel consumption levels are maintained as per norms.

Note

Get your vehicle certified by the Government authorised emission testing stations at specified intervals.

VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER

Serial numbers of both frame and engine are required for vehicle identification. They are also required to assist your Dealer for ordering parts or referring to special information.

The frame serial number is stamped on the frame, at the rear end below the seat assembly. Open the seat assembly to read the frame number.

The engine serial number is stamped on the left side of the engine, at the bottom, near center stand mounting.

Do not keep the engine in idling rpm for long and do not open excessive throttle when the engine is idling and the vehicle is parked, it leads to overheating of the engine and damage to internal components.

Note

Your vehicle is equipped with quick engine warm-up technology that helps you for better start and save fuel. Your vehicle's engine would operate at higher rpm for quick warm-up of the engine.

FUEL RECOMMENDATION

Use unleaded petrol only.

The petrol should be 85 to 95 octane by research method. Use recommended fuel additives for longer life of engine components and lower maintenance. Petrol mixed with ethanol will have impact on engine components. Contact your TVS Motor Company Authorised Main Dealer / Authorised Dealer for usage.

Caution

Never mix oil in petrol in the fuel tank. Always fill fuel from the reputed and reliable fuel stations.

Note

Use fuel additives in petrol as recommended by the respective manufacturer for low carbon deposition.

CHECKS AND TIPS FOR IMPROVING FUEL ECONOMY

Regular checks

Carry out the periodic maintenance checks as specified in this manual (pages no. 26 and 27).

Regular maintenance checks will save fuel and ensure trouble-free, enjoyable and safe riding besides keeping environment clean.

Spark plug

A dirty or defective spark plug leads to wastage of fuel due to incomplete combustion. Clean and adjust the spark plug only if necessary. Replace the spark plug every 12000 kms (1 year). Always use recommended spark plug only.

Air cleaner element

A dirty air cleaner element restricts airflow and increases fuel consumption. Replace the element every 12000 kms.

Since viscous filter is used in your scooter it is not recommended to clean the filter. Replace the filter incase of any abnormalities.

Engine oil and Transmission oil

Dirty or less engine oil increases friction between various parts of the engine and reduces the engine life, thereby increases the fuel consumption.

Running with low transmission oil will cause damage to the gears and bearings.

Regularly inspect the engine oil and the transmission oil for correct level and top-up if necessary. Get it replaced at regular intervals as per the maintenance schedule.

Fuelleak

Inspect and arrest fuel leaks if any from tank, carburettor and fuel lines. Loss of fuel due to leak may drain the fuel tank completely.

Evaporation

Vehicle parked in the hot sun leads to wastage of fuel through evaporation. Also, lower fuel levels in the tank will have increased evaporation and condensation of moisture inside.

Ensure to close fuel tank cap after every filling, if the fuel tank cap kept open for long time, it leads to safety and fuel loss.

Tyres

Low tyre pressure has adverse effect on the vehicle. The drag on the vehicle increases resulting decreased fuel economy. Further more, handling may be adversely affected.

Inspect the tyre pressure regularly (weekly) and inflate it to the recommended pressure (refer page no. 36). Never use tyres which are worn beyond the permissible limit.

Wheel freeness

Inspect and ensure the wheel freeness by rotating the wheel at least once in a week to avoid wastage of fuel.

Avoid unnecessary idling

While waiting for someone or stopping in signals for long time, if the engine is kept running at idle speed, it causes unnecessary wastage of fuel.

Avoid frequent braking

Anticipate corners and slopes as well as the traffic conditions. Unnecessary and frequent braking will reduce the fuel economy. Never accelerate and apply brake simultaneously. It leads clutch shoes wear and wastage of fuel.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

The maintenance schedule indicates the intervals between periodic services. At the end of each interval, be sure to inspect, check, replace, adjust, lubricate and service as instructed. If the maintenance is not done periodically, it will result in rapid wear and severe damage to the vehicle. If the vehicle is used under high stress conditions such as continuous full throttle operation or if used / operated in dusty climate, certain jobs should be performed more often to ensure reliability of the vehicle. Cylinder head, steering components, suspension and wheel components etc., are key items and require very special and careful servicing. TVS Motor Company Limited strongly recommends that the jobs as per the maintenance schedule be performed by your TVS Motor Company Authorised Main Dealer / Authorised Dealer.

Periodic inspections may reveal one or more parts that may need replacement. Whenever replacing parts on Scooty Zest 110, it is recommended that you use only the TVS Motor Company Genuine parts.

Caution

Proper running-in and maintenance are mandatory for ensuring that your vehicle is reliable and gives optimum performance at all times. Be sure that the periodic maintenance is performed thoroughly in accordance with the instructions given in this owner's manual.

In more dusty areas, the air cleaner element may required early replacement than the mentioned kilometers to avoid costly damage to the engine.

Caution

Replace the brake shoes as a set, if the wear limit indicator shows beyond the wear limit even after indexing the lever.

TYRES

Tyre pressure

Check the tyre pressure atleast once in a week if not more frequently. Insufficient air pressure in the tyres not only hasten tyre wear, but also seriously affects the stability of the vehicle.

Under inflated tyres make smooth cornering difficult and over inflated tyres decrease the tyre contact with the ground which can lead to skidding and loss of control. Be sure that the tyre pressure is within the specified limits at all times.

Tyre pressure in cold condition:

	Solo	Dual
Front	1.69 kg/cm2(24 PSI)	1.69 kg/cm2(24 PSI)
Rear	2.00 kg/cm2(29 PSI)	2.53 kg/cm2(36 PSI)

Tyre tread condition

Operating the vehicle with excessively worn tyres will decrease riding stability and can lead to loss of control. It is recommended to replace the tyre when the tyre wears off to the tyre wear indicator level (indicated by TWI (A) on the tyre).

Tyre rotation direction

While reassembling the tyres, after removing from the wheel rim or while assembling a new tyre ensure that the arrow mark (B) provided on the tyre facing the direction of wheel rotation.

Tyre puncture

Your scooter is fitted with a tubeless tyre on both the wheel. Incase of any puncture / tyre damage, it is advised to visit the nearest tyre manufacturer Dealer or the tyre repair shops who knows the repairing method of tubeless tyre. It is not necessary to remove the tyre from wheel rim always to attend a puncture.

Even though, if there is need of tyre removal, it is strongly recommended to use a tyre removal / fitment machine. If at all, tyre levers needs to be used, the levers should be free from sharp edges. Care should be taken not to damage the tyres and rims.

Warning

The tyre inflation pressure in cold condition and the tyre tread condition are extremely important for the performance and safety of the rider. Check the tyres frequently for inflation pressure as well as the wear pattern on it. Use of a tyre other than the standard may cause instability.

Caution

The side walls of the tubeless tyre which in contact with the wheel rim are only seals the air inside the wheel assembly. Hence care should be taken not to damage the side walls of the tyres during removal / reassembly.
