Washing Precautions
Follow these guidelines when washing:
● Do not use high-pressure washers:
u High-pressure water cleaners can
damage moving parts and electrical
parts, rendering them inoperable.
● Dry the brakes:
u Water adversely affects braking
effectiveness. After washing, apply the
brakes intermittently at low speed to
help dry them.
● Do not wash the batteries for motor or box
of battery for motor in water or clean them
with detergent.
u This may cause start-up failures and
malfunctions.
● Do not direct water under the seat:
u Water in the under seat compartment
can damage your documents and other
belongings.
● Do not direct water near the headlight:
u The headlight's inside lens may fog
temporarily after washing or while riding
in the rain. This does not impact the
headlight function.
However, if you see a large amount of
water or ice accumulated inside the
lens(es), have your vehicle inspected by
your authorised dealer.
● Do not use wax or polishing compounds on
mat painted surfaces:
u
Use a soft cloth or sponge, plenty of
water, and a mild detergent to clean mat
painted surfaces. Dry with a soft clean
cloth.
