●Make sure that there is no oil or
wax on the brakes or tires. If
necessary, clean the brake
discs and brake linings with a

acetone, and wash the tires
with warm water and a mild
detergent.
●Before operating the scooter
test its braking performance
and cornering behavior.

NOTICE
●Apply spray oil and wax spa-
ringly and make sure to wipe
off any excess.
●Never apply oil or wax to any
rubber and plastic parts, but
treat them with a suitable care
product.

Storage
Short-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 chemi-
cals are stored.
Long-term
Before storing your scooter for seve-
ral months:
1. Follow all the instructions in the
“Care” section of this chapter.
2. Drain the carburetor float cham-
ber by loosening the drain bolt;
this will prevent fuel deposits
from building up. Pour the drai-
ned fuel into the fuel tank.
