luted mild detergent with water
may be used. Be sure to rinse off
any detergent residue using
plenty of water, as it is harmful
to plastic parts.
● ●● ●
●
Do not use any harsh chemical
products on plastic parts. Be sure
to avoid using cloths or sponges
which have been in contact with
strong or abrasive cleaning prod-
ucts, solvent or thinner, fuel
(gasoline), rust removers or in-
hibitors, brake fluid, antifreeze or
electrolyte.
● ●● ●
●
Do not use high-pressure wash-
ers or steam-jet cleaners since
they cause water seepage and
deterioration in the following ar-
eas: seals (of wheel and
swingarm bearings, fork and
brakes), electric components
(couplers, connectors, instru-
ments, switches and lights),
breather hoses and vents.
● ●● ●
●
For scooters equipped with a
windshield: Do not use strongcleaners or hard sponges as they
will cause dulling or scratching.
Some cleaning compounds for
plastic may leave scratches on
the windshield. Test the product
on a small hidden part of the
windshield to make sure that it
does not leave any marks. If the
windshield is scratched, use a
quality plastic polishing com-
pound after washing.
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 oron 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.
TIP
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.
NOTICE:
Do
not use warm water since it in-
creases the corrosive action of
the salt.
[ECA10791]
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

stabilizer (if available) to prevent the
fuel tank from rusting and the fuel
from deteriorating.
3. Perform the following steps to pro-
tect the cylinder, piston rings, etc.
from corrosion.
a. Remove the spark plug cap and
spark plug.
b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine oil
into the spark plug bore.
c. Install the spark plug cap onto
the spark plug, and then place
the spark plug on the cylinder
head so that the electrodes are
grounded. (This will limit spark-
ing during the next step.)
d. Turn the engine over several
times with the starter. (This will
coat the cylinder wall with oil.)
e. Remove the spark plug cap from
the spark plug, and then install
the spark plug and the spark plug
cap. WARNING! To prevent dam-
age or injury from sparking,
make sure to ground the sparkplug electrodes while turning
the engine over.
[EWA10951]
4. Lubricate all control cables and the
pivoting points of all levers and
pedals as well as of the sidestand/
centerstand.
5. Check and, if necessary, correct
the tire air pressure, and then lift
the scooter so that both of its
wheels are off the ground. Alterna-
tively, turn the wheels a little every
month in order to prevent the tires
from becoming degraded in one
spot.
6. Cover the muffler outlet with a plas-
tic bag to prevent moisture from en-
tering it.
7. Remove the battery and fully charge
it. Store it in a cool, dry place and
charge it once a month. Do not store
the battery in an excessively cold
or warm place [less than 0 °C (30
°F) or more than 30 °C (90 °F)]. For
more information on storing the
battery, see page 6-19. Storage
EAU36561
StorageShort-term
Always store your scooter in a cool, dry
place and, if necessary, protect it against
dust with a porous cover.
ECA10820
NOTICE● ●● ●
●
Storing the scooter in a poorly
ventilated room or covering it
with a tarp, while it is still wet,
will allow water and humidity to
seep in and cause rust.
● ●● ●
●
To prevent corrosion, avoid
damp cellars, stables (because of
the presence of ammonia) and
areas where strong chemicals are
stored.
Long-term
Before storing your scooter for several
months:
1. Follow all the instructions in the
“Care” section of this chapter.
2. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuel
