SCOOTER CARE AND STORAGE
5. Lubricate all control cables and
the pivoting points of all levers
and pedals as well as of the
sidestand/centerstand.
6. Check and, if necessary, correct
the tire air pressure, and then
lift the scooter so that both of
its wheels are off the ground.
Alternatively, turn the wheels a
little every month in order to
prevent the tires from becom-
ing degraded in one spot.
7. Cover the muffler outlet with a
plastic bag to prevent moisture
from entering it.
8. 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 or more
than 30
°
C). For more informa-
tion on storing the battery, see
page 6-21.
NOTE:
Make any necessary repairs before
storing the scooter.
