When stored for a long time, your scooter must be protected against moisture, sunlight and rain. Before

3. Disconnect and remove the battery and put it in a cool place.
4. After cleaning your scooter, apply a colour fixing or preserving agent on coloured parts and grease on
moving metal parts.
5. Inflate tyres to specified pressure and then lift the scooter onto blocks to keep the wheels off the
ground.
6. Finally, cover your scooter.
