uments in the document storage space,
be sure to wrap them in a plastic bag so
that they will not get wet. When wash-
ing the vehicle, avoid letting water enter
the document storage space.NOTICE
ECA22540
Do not place heat-sensitive items in
the document storage space. This
space can get hot when the engine
is running or when the vehicle is in

gasoline, rust removers, brake
fluid, or antifreeze, etc.
Before washing 1. Park the vehicle out of direct sun- light and allow it to cool. This will
help avoid water spots.
2. Make sure all caps, covers, electri- cal couplers and connectors are
tightly installed.
3. Cover the muffler end with a plas- tic bag and a strong rubber band.
4. Pre-soak stubborn stains like in- sects or bird droppings with a wet
towel for a few minutes.
5. Remove road grime and oil stains with a quality degreasing agent
and a plastic-bristle brush or
sponge. NOTICE: Do not use de-
greasing agent on areas requir-
ing lubrication such as seals,
gaskets, and wheel axles. Fol-
low product instructions.
[ECA26290]
Washing 1. Rinse off any degreaser and spray down the vehicle with a garden
hose. Use only enough pressure to do the job. Avoid spraying water
directly into the muffler, instrument
panel, air inlet, or other inner areas
such as underseat storage com-
partments.
2. Wash the vehicle with a quality au- tomotive-type detergent mixed
with cool water and a soft, clean
towel or sponge. Use an old tooth-
brush or plastic-bristle brush for
hard-to-reach places. NOTICE:
Use cold water if the vehicle has
been exposed to salt. Warm wa-
ter will increase salt’s corrosive
properties.
[ECA26301]
3. For windshield-equipped vehicles: Clean the windshield with a soft
towel or sponge dampened with
water and a pH neutral detergent.
If necessary, use a high-quality
windshield cleaner or polish for
motorcycles. NOTICE: Never use
any strong chemicals to clean
the windshield. Additionally,
some cleaning compounds for
plastic may scratch the wind-
shield, so be sure to test all
cleaning products before gener-
al application.
[ECA26310]
4. Rinse off thoroughly with clean wa- ter. Be sure to remove all deter-
gent residues, as they can be
harmful to plastic parts.
After washing 1. Dry the vehicle with a chamois or absorbent towel, preferably micro-
fiber terrycloth.
2. For drive chain-equipped models: Dry and then lubricate the drive
chain to prevent rust.
3. Use a chrome polish to shine chrome, aluminum, and stainless
steel parts. Often the thermally in-
duced discoloring of stainless steel
exhaust systems can be removed
through polishing.
4. Apply a corrosion protection spray on all metal parts including chrome
or nickel-plated surfaces.
WARNING! Do not apply
silicone or oil spray to seats,
hand grips, rubber foot pegs or
tire treads. Otherwise these
parts will become slippery,
which could cause loss of con-
trol. Thoroughly clean the sur-
faces of these parts before
