Display backlight The instrument panel backlight is switched on only if the parking lights or low/high beam is on. In this case the instrument panel, using sensors that measure ambient temperature and light intensity, automatically turn the backlight on or off. Intelligent headlight switch-off This function helps reduce battery use by automatically switching off the headlight. The device is triggered in 3 cases: - in the first case, if you turn the key from OFF to ON and do not start the engine within 60 seconds, the headlight is turned off and will be turned on again only when the engine is next switched on. - in the second case, after the normal use of the motorcycle with the lights on, if the engine is stopped using the RUN-STOP button on the right-hand handlebar switch. In this case, the headlamp is switched off 60 seconds after the engine is switched off, and only switched on again the next time the engine is started. - in the third case, the headlight is switched off while the engine is being started and switched back on again when the engine is running. Intelligent headlamp switch-on This function allows programmed activation of the headlight even with the motorcycle off (Key-Off). Immediately after key-off, the instrument panel remains active for 60 seconds, thus allowing the headlight to be switched on if the button (1, fig. 8) is switched to position B "▼". During these 60 seconds, each time the button (1, fig. 8) is pressed in position B "▼", the instrument panel will activate the headlight for 30 seconds; each press of button (1, fig. 8) in position B "▼" will add to the headlight activation time, up to a maximum of 6 presses (equivalent to a maximum activation time of 180 seconds). The first time you press the button (1, fig. 8) in position B "▼", the 30 second period starts, thus switching on the headlight. Further switch-on time can be added only if you press the button again within these 30 seconds. If the 30 second period has elapsed, no further multiples of 30 seconds can be added, and the instrument panel will switch off the headlight. To reset this function, you must perform at least one Key-On/ Key-Off. If the battery power is interrupted at any time while this function is active, when power is restored, the instrument panel will de-activate the function (the instrument panel does not remain active for 60 seconds).

Display backlight
The instrument panel backlight is switched on only if the
parking lights or low/high beam is on.
In this case the instrument panel, using sensors that
measure ambient temperature and light intensity,
automatically turn the backlight on or off.
Intelligent headlight switch-off
This function helps reduce battery use by automatically
switching off the headlight. The device is triggered in 3 cases:
-
in the first case, if you turn the key from
OFF
to
ON
and
do not start the engine within 60 seconds, the headlight
is turned off and will be turned on again only when the
engine is next switched on.
-
in the second case, after the normal use of the motorcycle
with the lights on, if the engine is stopped using the
RUN
-
STOP
button on the right-hand handlebar switch.
In this case, the headlamp is switched off 60 seconds
after the engine is switched off, and only switched on
again the next time the engine is started.
-
in the third case, the headlight is switched off while
the engine is being started and switched back on
again when the engine is running.
Intelligent headlamp switch-on
This function allows programmed activation of the headlight
even with the motorcycle off (Key-Off).
Immediately after key-off, the instrument panel remains
active for 60 seconds, thus allowing the headlight to be
switched on if the button (1, fig. 8) is switched to position B
“
▼
”.
During these 60 seconds, each time the button (1, fig. 8) is
pressed in position B “
▼
”, the instrument panel will activate
the headlight for 30 seconds; each press of button (1, fig. 8)
in position B “
▼
” will add to the headlight activation time,
up to a maximum of 6 presses (equivalent to a maximum
activation time of 180 seconds).
The first time you press the button (1, fig. 8) in position B
“
▼
”, the 30 second period starts, thus switching on the
headlight. Further switch-on time can be added only if you
press the button again within these 30 seconds. If the
30 second period has elapsed, no further multiples of
30 seconds can be added, and the instrument panel will
switch off the headlight.
To reset this function, you must perform at least one Key-On/
Key-Off.
If the battery power is interrupted at any time while this
function is active, when power is restored, the instrument
panel will de-activate the function (the instrument panel
does not remain active for 60 seconds).
