SCOOTER CARE AND STORAGE
After normal use
Remove dirt with warm
water,
a mild
detergent,
and
a
soft,
clean
sponge,
and
then rinse thoroughly with clean
water.
Use
a toothbrush or bottlebrush for
hard-
to-reach
areas.
Stubborn dirt
and
insects
will come off more easily if the area is
covered with a wet cloth for a few
min-
utes before cleaning.
After riding in the
rain,
near the sea or
on salt-sprayed roads
Since sea salt or salt sprayed on the
roads during winter are extremely corro-
sive in combination with
water,
carry out
the following steps after each ride in the
rain,
near the sea or on salt-sprayed
roads.
NOTE:
Salt sprayed on roads in the winter may
remain well into spring.
1.
Clean the scooter with cold water
and a mild detergent after the en-
gine has cooled down.

C
Do not use warm water since it in-
creases the corrosive action of the
salt.
2.
Apply a corrosion protection spray
on all
metal,
including chrome- and
nickel-plated, surfaces to prevent
corrosion.
After cleaning
1.
Dry the scooter with a chamois or
an absorbing cloth.
2.
Use a chrome polish to shine
chrome, aluminum and stainless-
steel parts, including the exhaust
system.
(Even the thermally in-
duced discoloring of stainless-steel
exhaust systems can be removed
through polishing.)
3. To prevent corrosion, it is recom-
mended to apply a corrosion pro-
tection spray on all metal, includ-
ing chrome- and
nickel-plated,
sur-
faces.
4.
Use spray
oil
as a universal cleaner
to remove any remaining dirt.
5. Touch up minor paint damage
caused by stones, etc.
6. Wax all painted surfaces.
7. Let the scooter dry completely be-
fore storing or covering it.
