AUTOMATIC MAIN SWITCH
WARNING!
Do not attempt to carry out do-it-yourself electrical repairs. Consult your local retailer.
If the scooter should stop working, for no apparent reason, it could be that the automatic main
switch has tripped.
POSSIBLE REASONS FOR THE AUTOMATIC MAIN SWITCH TRIPPING
• Driving on a steep incline;
• Overtaking on a pavement;
• Depleted batteries;
• Exceeding the maximum weight capacity.
When you switch on the scooter, the battery voltage decreases and the battery current
increases to satisfy the needs of the engine or the other electrical devices on the scooter. This
could result in heavy absorption of electric current that causes the automatic main switch to
trip.
Solutions:
• Charge the scooter batteries. Consult chapter 16.5 (Battery and charging) of this manual;
• If the problem persists, contact your authorised retailer to carry out a battery charging test;
• If the batteries are working properly, the problem could be the battery charger. Contact your
authorised retailer.
RESTARTING THE AUTOMATIC MAIN SWITCH.
•
If the automatic main switch trips due to the batteries being depleted or due to a temporary
overload, restart the automatic main switch;
•
Wait 10 minutes for the engine control panel to start operating again;
•
Check that the ignition is in the "Off" position;
•
Press the restart button on the automatic main switch.
NOTE:
If the automatic main switch continues to trip, there is probably a basic electrical
fault that requires repair by qualified personnel.
