For controls and check-ups that cannot be carried out easily with the standard equipment supplied, we advise you to consult our Dealers who can assure you of quick and careful servicing. To keep your aprilia vehicle always in perfect operating conditions, we advise you to insist on Original Spares and to have repairs carried out only by aprilia Authorized Outlets and Official Dealers. When ordering spare parts from the Dealer, always quote the spares code which is stamped on a sticker placed under the saddle. It is a good idea to make a note of the identification code in the space provided in this manual, so that you will always have a record of it even if the identification sticker comes off. aprilia N° I UK CODICE RICAMBI spare parts code number I.M.

The catalytic Amico 50 is fitted with a silencer with metal catalytic converter of the "platinum-rhodium bivalent" type. This device provides for the oxidation of the CO (carbon monoxide) and of the HC (unburned hydrocarbons) contained in the exhaust gases, changing them into carbon dioxide and steam, respectively. Due to the catalytic reaction, the high temperature reached by the exhaust gases makes for the burning of the oil particles, thus keeping the silencer clean and eliminating the exhaust fumes. a To have the catalytic converter function correctly and for long and to reduce possible problems regarding the soiling of the thermal unit and of the exhaust, it is necessary to avoid covering long distances with the engine running at constantly low rpm. It is sufficient to alternate these periods with periods in which the engine runs at relatively high rpm, even if only for a few seconds, but rather frequently. What has been stated above assumes particular importance for the cold starting of the engine: in this case, in order to reach a rpm regime sufficient to enable the "priming" of the catalytic reaction, just make sure that the temperature of the thermal unit has reached at least 50°C, which generally occurs a few seconds after starting the engine.

Avoid starting the vehicle in closed or badlyventilated rooms. The non-observance of this warning may cause loss of consciousness or even lead to death by asphyxia. Do not get on the vehicle for the starting. Electric starting Position the vehicle on the stand. N Lock at least one wheel, by pulling a brake lever (Fig. 7). If this operation is not carried out, the start relay receives no current and therefore the engine does not start. N Turn the ignition switch (Fig. 8) to position "n". N a 9 N Press the start push button "r" (1-Fig. 9) without accelerating, then release it as soon as the engine starts. Avoid pressing the start push button "r" (3) when the engine is running: this may damage the starter. When the start push button "r" is pressed, the 2 stroke oil reserve warning light "j" comes on. With the engine in running condition, when the start push button "r" is released, the 2 stroke oil reserve warning light "j" must go out; if this does not occur, top up the 2 stroke oil tank. N N N N a If the starting is carried out with cold engine, rotate the cold start lever "e" (1-Fig. 10) downwards. Do not accelerate and pull the brake levers at the same time until you move off. Warm the engine up before leaving. Once the engine has warmed up, rotate the cold start lever "e" (1-Fig. 10) upwards. 10 CA5CÀQR3PR QR3PRAF9À 38R7PÀ3ÀDGF9ÀH7PAG6ÀG8ÀAF35RATARW For the kick start, proceed as follows: N Position the vehicle on the centre stand.
