CLEANING YOUR SCOOTER
Cleaning the Windshield
Using plenty of water, clean the windshield with a soft cloth or sponge (avoid using detergents or any kind of
chemical cleaner on the windshield). Dry with a soft, clean cloth. For a dirtier windshield, use a diluted, neutral
detergent with a sponge and plenty of water. Make sure to wash off all of the detergent (detergent residue may
cause windshield cracks).
Replace the windshield if scratches cannot be removed and they obstruct clear vision.
Do not let battery electrolyte, brake fluid or other acid chemicals get on the windshield and screen garnish.
They will damage the plastic.
Finishing touches:
After washing your scooter, consider using a commercially available spray cleaner/polish or a quality liquid or paste wax to enhance and protect the
paint's finish. Use only a nonabrasive polish or wax made specifically for scooters, motorcycles, or automobiles. Apply the polish or wax according
to the instructions on the container.
Removing road salt
The salt used in some communities to prevent road icing can become very corrosive to your scooter. Wash your scooter as soon as possible if it
comes in contact with road salt (or sea water).
1. Clean the scooter using cool water (see page 49). Do not use warm water, as this will increase the corrosive effect of the salt.
2. Dry the scooter and protect painted and metal surfaces with wax or polish.
Painted aluminum wheel maintenance
Even if protected by paint, aluminum may corrode from contact with dirt, mud, or road salt. Clean the scooter's wheels with a wet sponge and mild
detergent. Avoid stiff brushes, steel wool, or cleaners containing abrasives or chemical compounds. After washing, rinse with plenty of water and
dry with a clean cloth . Apply touch-up paint to the wheels where damage has occurred.
Exhaust pipe maintenance
The exhaust system is stainless steel, but it can become stained by oil or mud. If necessary, remove heat stains with a liquid kitchen-counter
CAUTION
Do not wipe with organic
solvent (ex. gas thinner, etc).

windshield.
