Panels
Follow these guidelines to prevent
scratches and blemishes:
Wash gently using a soft sponge and
●
plenty of water.
To remove stubborn stains, use diluted
●
detergent and rinse thoroughly with
plenty of water.
Avoid getting gasoline, brake fluid, or
●
detergents on the instruments, panels, or
headlight.
Replace the carbon panel if it is
●
damaged.
Do not touch damaged carbon panel
●
with bare hands.
II AC type only
Carbon panels will deteriorate if subjected
to prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays.
Therefore we would recommend the
painting of carbon panels in order to
prevent damage.
Windscreen
Using plenty of water, clean the
windscreen with a soft cloth or sponge.
(Avoid using detergents or any kind of
chemical cleaner on the windscreen.) Dry
with a soft, clean cloth.
NOTICE
To avoid possible scratching or other damage, use only
water and a soft cloth or sponge to clean the
windscreen.
For a dirtier windscreen, use a diluted
neutral detergent with a sponge and plenty
of water. Make sure to wash off all the
detergent. (Detergent residue may cause
windscreen cracks.)
Replace the windscreen if scratches cannot
be removed and they obstruct clear vision.
Take care to keep battery electrolyte, brake
fluid, or other chemical solvents off the
windscreen and screen garnish. They will
damage the plastic.
