When the ignition switch is turned "ON" the PGM-FI indicator lamp (RED) glows for a seconds and then it should go "OFF".
ACHIEVER, CD DAWN, CD DELUXE, GLAMOUR, KARIZMA, PASSION PLUS, PASSION PRO, PLEASURE, SPLENDOR +, SPLENDOR NXG, SUPER SPLENDOR Ensure sufficient fuel is available in your fuel tank for your journey. Check for leaks.
Fuel Cock - The three-way fuel valve is on the left side of the carburetor.
OFF- At "OFF" position fuel cannot flow from the tank to the carburetor. Turn the valve "OFF" whenever the two-wheeler is not in use.
ON - At "ON" position fuel will flow from fuel tank to the carburetor.
RES - At "RES" position fuel will flow from the reserve fuel supply to the carburetor. Use the reserve fuel only when the main supply is exhausted. Refill the tank as soon as possible after switching to "RES" position. The reserve fuel supply is specified as per our model.
Note
cleaning products only.
TYRES
- Ensure sufficient fuel is available in your fuel tank for your journey. Check for leaks.
- The fuel gauge is liquid crystal type.
- The approximate amount of fuel quantity available in the fuel tank is indicated by the number of segments in the display.
- Each segment displays approx.1.5 litres of fuel.
- If all the segments are displayed it means fuel quantity in the fuel tank is 12 litres.
- If only one segment is displayed above the red mark, this indicates that the fuel quantity is low and the fuel tank should be refilled as soon as possible.

Note
- Do not operate the two-wheeler with the fuel valve in the "RES" position after refilling, you may run out of fuel, with no reserve.
- Do not keep the fuel valve between "ON" and "OFF" position while riding, since this may drain reserve fuel from the tank.

The tyres
that are fitted on your motorcycle are designed to match the performance
capabilities of your motorcycle and provide the best combination of
handling, braking, durability and comfort. To safely operate your
motorcycle, the tyres must be of recommended type and size, in good
condition with the adequate tread, and correctly inflated.
Properly inflated tyres provide the best combination of handling, tread life, and riding comfort. Generally, under-inflated tyres wear unevenly, adversely affect handling, and more likely to fail from being overheated. Under inflated tyre can also cause wheel damage in rocky terrain. Over inflated tyres make your motorcycle ride more harshly, and more prone to damage from surface hazards, and wear unevenly. Check tyre condition and air pressure. Whenever you check the tyre air pressure, you should also examine tyre treads & sidewalls for wear, damage & foreign objects. Look for – |
|
Unidirectional Tyres
Some tyres are unidirectional. That means they need to be fitted in a particular direction only. Whenever the tyre is removed and put back in case of puncture you must ensure that the arrow mark on the tyre is in the same direction as that of forward rotation of the wheel. Make sure the valve stem caps are secure. If necessary, install a new cap. Caution Over inflation / under inflation will affect the performance. Warning |

Tyres fitted with TUFFUP tube [Achiever/CBZ xtreme/Hunk/Pleasure]
|
Compared with
ordinary tyre tube, the TUFFUP tube releases little air when punctured
by a nail or other similar object. For this reason even though they
remain fully inflated it is important to regularly check the tyre for
embedded objects.
Note: The TUFFUP tube is not intended to prevent tyre puncture completely. It is not effective in case of ‘L' shaped cut on the tread surface and damages or cuts in the tyre other than the tread surface. |
Tyre Repair & Replacement If a tube is punctured or damaged, you should replace it as soon as possible. A tube that is repaired may not have the same reliability as a new one, and it may fail while you are riding. If you need to make a temporary repair by patching a tube or using an aerosol sealant, ride cautiously at reduced speed and have the tube replaced before you ride again. Each time a tube is replaced, the tyre should be carefully inspected. When replacing a TUFFUP tube, be sure to select the size appropriate for the tyre. The TUFFUP tube should always be repaired or replace by your Authorized Hero Honda Workshop because of its special construction. |
