• The tire pressure should only be checked and
regulated when the tire temperature equals the
ambient air temperature.
• The tire pressure and the suspension must be
adjusted according to the total weight (including
cargo, rider, passenger and accessories) and the
anticipated riding speed.
• Operation of an overloaded scooter could cause
tire damage, an accident or an injury.
• NEVER OVERLOAD THE SCOOTER.

WEAR INDICATOR
It is dangerous to ride with a worn-out tire. When the
tire tread reaches the wear limit, replace the tire
immediately.
1. Inspect tire thread depth and side wall surface condition. If
reach worn limit, replace it immediately.
Note: Patching a punctured tire is not recommended.
If tire were patched, replace it.
2. When replacing a tire always use original equipment size
and type.
New tires have a relatively low grip on the road
surface until they have been slightly worn.
Therefore, approximately 100 km should be traveled
at normal speed before any high-speed riding is
done.
There is a direction of rotation mark on tire surface. Install the
tire with the mark pointing in the direction of wheel rotation.
