After cleaning
1. Dry the scooter with a chamois
or an absorbing cloth.
2. Use a chrome polish to shine
chrome, aluminum and stain-
less-steel parts, including the
exhaust system. (Even the ther-
mally induced discoloring of
stainless-steel exhaust systems
can be removed through pol-
ishing.)
3. To prevent corrosion, it is rec-
ommended to apply a corro-
sion protection spray on all
metal, including chrome- and
nickel-plated, surfaces.
4. Use spray oil as a universal
cleaner to remove any remain-
ing dirt.
5. Touch up minor paint damage
caused by stones, etc.
6. Wax all painted surfaces.
7. Let the scooter dry completely
before storing or covering it.

Before operating the scooter
test its braking performance
and cornering behavior.
