8.0 Cleaning Your A2B
Rubber and plastic parts will be damaged by
caustic or penetrating cleaning agents or sol-
vents.
Always carry out a brake test after cleaning
and before starting a ride!
Do not use steam or high-pressure jet de-
vices!
Such devices can damage seals, the battery and
electrical system.
• 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.
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.
Protect the environment by using only envi-
ronmentally friendly preservation agents,and use
them frugally.
Use of the A2B in the winter can cause consi-
derable damage 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.
