Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 - Owner's Manual > Instrument cluster

Operation of Controls / Instrument cluster

This instrument cluster consists of the following:

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER

  1. Speedometer
  2. Odometer
  3. Selection Button
  4. Trip Meter 'A' and 'B'
  5. Turn Signal Indicator
  6. Hi beam Indicator
  7. Engine Malfunction Indicator
  8. Battery Low Voltage Indicator
  9. Fuel Level Indicator
  10. ABS Indicator
  11. Neutral Indicator
  12. Low Oil Pressure Indicator
  13. Tachometer

1. SPEEDOMETER

The Speedometer indicates the speed at which motorcycle is travelling and has both kms/ miles calibration.

SPEEDOMETER

2. ODOMETER

The default display in the odometer is the total kms/miles, the motorcycle has covered.

ODOMETER

NOTE

The last selection mode will be displayed whenever ignition is switched "ON".

WARNING

It is illegal to tamper with the odometer display or reset the total kms/miles, the motorcycle has covered.

It is illegal to ride the motorcycle after disconnecting the speed sensor of the motorcycle.

3. SELECTOR BUTTON

The selector knob will help to select between odometer, Trip 'A' or Trip 'B'.

SELECTOR BUTTON

4. TRIP METER A AND B

A light push for less than one second on the select button switch will change the display from odometer Trip 'A'. Again another press on the select button switch will change the display from Trip 'A' to Trip 'B'.

NOTE

1. Set the display as Trip 'A' or Trip 'B' as current mode.

2. Press the select button for more than 3 seconds.

3. Automatically the display will become zero.

WARNING

Do not attempt to change any setting while riding the motorcycle. It may cause loss of control leading to an accident.

5. TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR

Indicates that either the left or right indicators are "ON".

TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR

6. HI BEAM INDICATOR

Indicates that the high beam head lamp is "ON".

HI BEAM INDICATOR

7. ENGINE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP

A Malfunctioning indicator lamp (MIL) is provided in the tachometer.

When both the ignition and engine kill switch is in "ON" position and after vehicle is started, the MIL will glow for few seconds and switch "OFF" this indicates that all the functions of Electronic fuel injection (EFI) system is functioning normally. In the event of any malfunction in the EFI system MIL will glow continuously. It is recommended to take the motorcycle to a nearest Royal Enfield Authorised Service Centre for a detailed inspection and correction of EFI system.

ENGINE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP

8. BATTERY LOW VOLTAGE INDICATOR

When the ignition switch is turned in "ON" position, low voltage indicator symbol will glow.

As soon as the engine is started the battery low voltage indicator turns "OFF" automatically. In case the battery voltage is below 12 volt and the battery is not charging when the engine is started, the battery low voltage indicator will continue to glow in the instrument cluster.

BATTERY LOW VOLTAGE INDICATOR

CAUTION

DO NOT ride the motorcycle if the battery low voltage indicator is glowing continuously and please get the charging system checked through an Royal Enfield Authorised Service Centre immediately.

Warning Indications and Safety Systems

9. FUEL LEVEL INDICATOR

The fuel level indicator indicates the level of fuel in the fuel tank.

The display bars of the fuel meter fades towards the empty (E) when the fuel level decreases from full tank level (F).

The last bar of the fuel level indication in the instrument cluster will blink continuously when the fuel is less than 3 litre (0.8 imperial gallon).

Please do not ride the motorcycle with the low fuel indication blinking continuously as it may not only result in the motorcycle running out of fuel, but will also cause serious damage to the fuel pump. Please refuel as soon as the low fuel indication starts blinking.

Warning Indications and Safety Systems

10. ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)

Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) will help prevent the brakes from locking the wheels, during sudden application of the brakes at high speeds or at low friction surfaces. This will help the rider to have better traction and control over the motorcycle and prevent the motorcycle from skidding which can cause an accident.

In the event of a sudden and hard application of the brakes by the rider, the sensors in the braking system will signal the ABS modulator to momentarily and continously reduce the hydraulic pressure and thereby prevent the brakes from locking the wheels while reducing the speed of the vehicle. This will help the rider to control the motorcycle.

An ABS indicator lamp is provided in the cluster (as shown in the adjacent image) to warn the rider in the event of any malfunction of the ABS.

When the ignition and engine kill switch are switched in "ON" position the ABS sign will glow and remain "ON" till the motorcycle attains a speed of 5 kmph / 3 Mph and turns "OFF". This indicates the ABS is functioning properly. If the ABS indicator lamp does not switch "OFF" and remains continuously "ON" at higher speeds, it is recommended not to drive the ABS motorcycle. Get the brake system inspected and corrected through a nearest Authorised Royal Enfield Service Centre. Failure to do so can result in a serious injuries and loss of life.

Warning Indications and Safety Systems

CAUTION (ABS)

ABS is a safety feature to help prevent locking of wheels during panic application of brakes. It is by no means a substitute for good riding practices and anticipatory braking.

Please ride carefully and apply brakes cautiously, especially while cornering. ABS cannot estimate the "weight shifts" and momentum of the motorcycle while negotiating a corner and therefore prevent skidding due to loss of traction.

Please anticipate the stopping distance required for the speed of travel and apply brakes well in advance so as to bring the motorcycle to a safe stop.

Please apply both brakes simultaneously to stop with better traction and control of the motorcycle.

Failure to adhere to the above can cause an accident resulting in serious injuries and loss of life.

DO'S AND DON'TS : (ABS)

11. NEUTRAL INDICATOR

This indicator glows when the vehicle is in neutral position.

12. LOW OIL PRESSURE INDICATOR

This indicator glows whenever the oil pressure is too low. When the ignition switch is in "ON" position with the engine not running condition the indicator goes off when the engine oil pressure is high enough / normal condition.

CAUTION

When the indicator glows continuously and if the engine speed is above idle, stop the vehicle immediately and get the engine inspected and corrected through a nearest Authorised Royal Enfield Service Centre. Failure to do so can cause engine damage.

13. TACHOMETER

This indicates the engine speed in RPM.

ROLL OVER SENSOR

In the event of motorcycle falling over on either of its sides with the engine running, the roll over sensor will disable both the ignition and fuel systems and switch "OFF" the engine. This is to prevent further damage to the motorcycle and the rider.

To reset the roll over sensor and reactivate the ignition and fuel systems.

  • Ensure the motorcycle is parked upright on a firm surface.
  • Ensure gear is in neutral position and the neutral lamp is glowing in the instrument cluster.
  • Turn "OFF" ignition and switch "OFF" engine kill switch, wait for a few seconds and turn "ON" the Ignition and switch "ON" engine kill switch once again, to start the engine.
