●
car washing.
Be careful not to allow water to enter
●
the muffler during the washing.Water
inside the muffler may cause an
improper engine starting or rust
occurrence.
Do not let water get inside the braking
●

inside the brake system may weaken
the braking power. Upon completion of
MAIN STAND
washing, select a safe place where
there is no traffic obstruction, and start
the vehicle.
Lightly apply the brake while driving at
a slow speed and check the braking
power. If the braking power has been
weak-ened, apply brake lightly while
driving at a slow speed to dry up the
brake system.

●
vehicle. Excessive polish of the painted
section and/or the resin part with
compound wax might damage the
painted section causing discoloration of
the affected area.
