KEYLESS System
The bike has a «keyless» system. It allows the bike to start without any key or ON/OFF
switch. It automatically turns on and it turns off after 30 secondes of non use of the bike.
Lithium-ion batteries are far lighter than lead batteries, have a low self-discharge rate, and
have more starting power at temperatures over 15 °C (60 °F). At low temperatures, however,
the starting power of lithium-ion batteries drops to below that of lead batteries.
Multiple starting attempts may be needed. Press the electric starter button for 5 seconds,
and wait 30 seconds between attempts. The pauses are necessary so that the created heat
can distribute through the lithium-ion battery and the battery is not damaged.
If the charged lithium-ion battery does not or only weakly turns over the electric starter when
temperatures are below 15 °C (60 °F), then the battery is not faulty, but needs to be warmed
up internally to increase its starting power (current output). The starting power increases as
the battery warms up.
