4. Do not brake hard on a wet surface, on dirt tracks or on any slippery road surface.
5. If you have to brake, use both brakes in order to divide the braking action between
both wheels.
6. Avoid starting off by mounting the vehicle while it is still resting on its stand. In any
case, the rear wheel should not be turning when it comes into contact with the ground,
in order to avoid abrupt departures.
7. If the vehicle is used on roads covered with sand, mud, snow mixed with salt, etc.,
clean the brake disc frequently with mild detergent in order to prevent abrasive sub-
stances from building up within the holes, which can result in early wear of the brake

original structural parts is strictly forbidden by law, and renders the vehicle not con-
forming to the approved type and therefor dangerous to ride.

CINES CAN BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FOR ONESELF AND FOR OTHERS.

ANY ELABORATION THAT MODIFIES THE VEHICLE'S PERFORMANCES, SUCH

DEN BY LAW, AND RENDERS THE VEHICLE NO LONGER CONFORMING TO
THE APPROVED TYPE AND DANGEROUS FOR RIDING.
