2022 Kawasaki Z650 Ignition Switch/Steering Lock

Ignition Switch/Steering Lock

This is a three-position, key-operated switch. The key can be removed when it is in the “OFF or LOCK” position.

For Locking:

1. Turn the handlebars fully to the left.
2. Push the key down in the “OFF” position and turn it to “LOCK”.

WARNING
Turning the ignition switch to the “OFF” position while riding the motorcycle shuts down the entire electrical system (headlight, brake light, turn signal light, etc) and the engine will stop, which could cause an accident resulting in severe injury or death. Never operate the ignition switch while riding the motorcycle; only operate it when the motorcycle is at a standstill.

NOTE

• The tail, city and license plate lights are on whenever the ignition key is in the “ON” position. The headlight goes on when the starter button is released after starting the engine.
• Do not leave the ignition switch at the “ON” position for an extended time with the engine stopped, or the battery may become totally discharged.
• Do not leave the hazard lights switched on for a long time without the engine running or the battery will become discharged.
