TIRE PRESSURE

n If equipped with pneumatic tires always maintain proper tire pressure.
WARNING! Overinflating a tire can cause it to explode.
n Regularly inspect your scooter’s tires for signs of wear.
EXTERIOR SURFACES
n Bumpers, tires, and trim can benefit from an occasional application of rubber or vinyl conditioner.
WARNING! Do not use a rubber or vinyl conditioner on the scooter’s vinyl seat or tire tread; they will
become dangerously slippery.
