108 GENERAL INFORMATION NOTICE Always wear gloves when using the grip warmer. If the handlebar grip becomes worn or damaged, stop using the grip warmer and replace the grip with a new one. Using the grip warmer with worn or damaged grips may cause burns. On a warm day (ambient temperature 20°C (68°F) or higher), refrain from using the grip warmer. In warmer weather, keep the temperature adjustment dial near the "LO" position. Battery Protection This grip warmer is equipped with the automatic shift switch to prevent the battery from running down. Therefore, when the motorcycle is at a stop or is slowing down, the switch may be turned off automatically. Once the motorcycle returns to normal operating speed, the switch is turned on automatically. During the motorcycle is traveling at extremely low speed, the automatic shift switch may not be turned on depending on the battery condition. Batteries are consumable goods. If the lifetime of the battery is at the end, the grip warmer cannot operate. Inspect the battery and replace it with a new one. • • •
