SCOOTER CARE AND STORAGE

steel exhaust systems can be 
removed through polishing.)

3.  To prevent corrosion, it is recom-

mended to apply a corrosion pro-
tection spray on all metal, includ-
ing chrome- and nickel-plated, 
surfaces.

4.  Use spray oil as a universal 

cleaner to remove any remaining 
dirt.

5.  Touch up minor paint damage 

caused by stones, etc.

6.  Wax all painted surfaces.
7.  Let the scooter dry completely 

before storing or covering it.

EWA10942

WARNING

Contaminants on the brakes or 
tires can cause loss of control.

  Make sure that there is no oil 

or wax on the brakes or tires. 
If necessary, clean the brake 
discs and brake linings with a 
regular brake disc cleaner or 
acetone, and wash the tires 
with warm water and a mild de-
tergent.

  Before operating the vehicle, 

test its braking performance 
and cornering behavior.

ECA10800

NOTICE

  Apply spray oil and wax spar-

ingly and make sure to wipe off 
any excess.

  Never apply oil or wax to any 

rubber and plastic parts, but 
treat them with a suitable care 
product.

  Avoid using abrasive polishing 

compounds as they will wear 
away the paint.

TIP

  Consult a Yamaha dealer for ad-

vice on what products to use.

  Washing, rainy weather or humid 

climates can cause the headlight 
lens to fog. Turning the headlight 
on for a short period of time will 
help remove the moisture from 
the lens.

EAU36563

Storage

Short-term

Always store your scooter in a cool, 
dry place and, if necessary, protect 
it against dust with a porous cover. 
Be sure the engine and the exhaust 
system are cool before covering the 
scooter.

ECA10820

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 chemi-
cals 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 

stabilizer (if available) to prevent
