prevent inadvertent actuation to the
"off" function. The control shall be
identified with the marking "Lights" and
the control positions shall be marked
"Hi" and "Lo" to identify the
appropriate function.
(C) Horn control. Each moped shall be
equipped with a horn control mounted on
the left handlebar. The control opera-
tion shall be pushed to activate. The
control shall be identified with the
marking "Horn".
