9.0 Cleaning
Never use paint-polishing
agents on plastic parts.
- After a longish ride,
thoroughly clean the A2B
and preserve it with a
commercially available
anti-corrosion agent.
- To wash the A2B, use a soft
sponge and clean water.
- Afterwards, dry off with a
polishing cloth or chamois.
- Do not wipe off dust or dirt
with a dry cloth, to avoid
scratching the paint or
covering.
Always carry out a brake test
after cleaning and before
starting a ride!
Do not use steam or high-
pressure jet devices!
Such devices can damage
seals, the battery and electri-
cal system.
Rubber and plastic parts will
be damaged by caustic or
penetrating cleaning agents
or solvents.
Protect the environment by using only environmentally
friendly preservation agents,and use them frugally.
Use of the A2B in the winter can cause considerable dam-
age due to the presence of salt on the roads.
Do not use hot water, which would in crease the effect of
the salt.
- At the end of each ride, wash the A2B with cold water.
- Thoroughly dry the A2B.
- Treat parts liable to corrosion with wax borne anti-
corrosion agents.
