Cleaning the titanium muffler
This model is equipped with a titanium
muffler which requires special care.
Use only a soft cloth or sponge and
mild detergent with water to clean the
muffler. This should remove finger-
prints and other oil stains. If necessary,
an alkaline pH cleaning product and
soft brush may be used. However, do
not use abrasive compounds or spe-
cial treatments to clean the muffler, as
these will wear away the protective fin-
ish.
TIP
The thermally induced discoloring of
the exhaust pipe leading into the titani-
um muffler is normal and cannot be re-
moved.
