stabilizer (if available) to prevent the
fuel tank from rusting and the fuel
from deteriorating.
3. Perform the following steps to pro-
tect the cylinder, piston rings, etc.
from corrosion.
a. Remove the spark plug cap and
spark plug.
b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine oil
into the spark plug bore.
c. Install the spark plug cap onto
the spark plug, and then place
the spark plug on the cylinder
head so that the electrodes are
grounded. (This will limit spark-
ing during the next step.)
d. Turn the engine over several
times with the starter. (This will
coat the cylinder wall with oil.)
e. Remove the spark plug cap from
the spark plug, and then install
the spark plug and the spark plug
cap. WARNING! To prevent dam-
age or injury from sparking,
make sure to ground the sparkplug electrodes while turning
the engine over.
[EWA10951]
4. Lubricate all control cables and the
pivoting points of all levers and
pedals as well as of the sidestand/
centerstand.
5. Check and, if necessary, correct
the tire air pressure, and then lift
the scooter so that both of its
wheels are off the ground. Alterna-
tively, turn the wheels a little every
month in order to prevent the tires
from becoming degraded in one
spot.
6. Cover the muffler outlet with a plas-
tic bag to prevent moisture from en-
tering it.
7. Remove the battery and fully charge
it. Store it in a cool, dry place and
charge it once a month. Do not store
the battery in an excessively cold
or warm place [less than 0 °C (30
°F) or more than 30 °C (90 °F)]. For
more information on storing the
battery, see page 6-19. Storage
EAU36561

NOTICE● ●● ●
●
Storing the scooter in a poorly
ventilated room or covering it
with a tarp, while it is still wet,
will allow water and humidity to
seep in and cause rust.
● ●● ●
●
To prevent corrosion, avoid
damp cellars, stables (because of
the presence of ammonia) and
areas where strong chemicals are
stored.
Long-term
Before storing your scooter for several
months:
1. Follow all the instructions in the
“Care” section of this chapter.
2. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuel
