Before transporting the vehicle,
it is necessary to empty the fuel
tank and the carburettor completely,
making sure that both are completely
dry. During transport, the vehicle must
be held upright, in its normal use posi-
tion, to avoid any oil and battery fluid
leakage.

Clean the vehicle frequently if it
used in particular areas or con-
ditions, such as:
◆
Polluted areas (cities and industrial
areas).
◆
Areas characterized by an high per-
centage of salinity and humidity (sea
areas, hot and humid climates).
◆
Particular conditions (use of salt and
anti-ice chemical products on the
roads during the winter).
◆
Avoid leaving deposits of industrial
and polluting powders, tar spots,
dead insects, bird droppings, etc. on
the body.
◆
Avoid parking the vehicle under trees,
since in some seasons residues, res-

washed, its braking functions
could be temporarily impaired
because of the presence of water on the
grip surfaces.
Calculate long braking distances to
avoid accidents. Brake repeatedly to re-
store normal conditions.
To remove dirt and mud from the
p ainted surf aces use a lo w-
pressure water jet; carefully wet the
dirty parts, remove mud and filth with a
soft car sponge impregnated with a lot
of water and shampoo (2
÷
4% parts of
shampoo in water).
Then rinse with plenty of water and dry
with chamois leather.
To clean the outer parts of the engine
use a degreaser, brushes and wipers.
Polish with silicone wax only after hav-
ing carefully washed the vehicle.
Do not wash the vehicle under
the sun, especially during the
summer, when the body is still warm,
since if the shampoo dries before being
rinsed away, it can damage the paint.
Use neither high pressure water/air jets,
nor vapour jets on the following parts:
wheel hubs, controls on the right and
on the left side of the handlebars, brake
pump, instruments and indicators, si-
lencer exhaust, glove compartment, ig-
nition switch/steering lock.
Never use solvents to clean the rubber
and plastic parts.
