Washing or operating the scooter in freezing temperatures can result in
water freezing in the throttle cable conduit and/or on the throttle

This may result in the throttle sticking which can cause the engine to continue
to run and result in loss of control.
Front and Rear Brakes
The brake fluid level should be checked before each ride. The reservoir of
hand brake is located on the left side of the handlebar. The reservoir of foot
brake is located under the seat. The fluid should be kept between the
maximum and minimum marks.
CAUTION
Once a bottle of brake fluid is opened, use what is necessary and discard the
rest. Do not store or use a partial bottle of brake fluid. Brake fluid is
hygroscopic,meaning it rapidly absorbe moisture from the air. This cause the
boiling temperature of the brake fluid to drop,which can lead to early brake
fade and the possible of sever injury
Front and Rear Brakes
The front and rear brakes are located on the inside of the right floor board and
are operated by the right foot. The front and rear brakes are hydraulically
activated disc type brakes which are activated by one pedal only.
Always test brake pedal travel and reservoir fluid level before riding. When
squeezed, the pedal should feel firm. Any sponginess would indicate a
possible fluid leak or low master cylinder fluid pedal which must be corrected
