Regular care and maintenance are essential for preserving your scooter’s value and operating condi-
tion. Moreover, what is true for the scooter is also true for the rider: good performance depends on
being in good shape. Riding under the influence of medication, drugs and alcohol is, of course, out of
the question. Scooter riders - more than car drivers - must always be at their mental and physical
best. Under the influence of even small amounts of alcohol, there is a tendency to take dangerous
risks.
Protective clothing is as essential for the scooter rider as seat belts are for car drivers and passen-
gers. Always wear a complete motorcycle suit (whether made of leather or tear-resistant synthetic
materials with protectors), sturdy boots, motorcycle gloves and a properly fitting helmet. Optimum
protective wear, however, should not encourage carelessness. Though full-coverage helmets and
suits, in particular, create an illusion of total safety and protection, motorcyclists will always be vul-
nerable. Riders who lack critical self-control run the risk of going too fast and are apt to take chances.
This is even more dangerous in wet weather. The good motorcyclist rides safely, predictably and
defensively - avoiding all dangers, including those caused by others.

PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
Owners are personally responsible for their vehicle’s condition. Your scooter’s vital functions can start to deterio-
rate quickly and unexpectedly, even if it remains unused (for instance, if it is exposed to the elements). Any dam-
age, fluid leak or loss of tire pressure could have serious consequences. Therefore, it is very important that, in
addition to a thorough visual inspection, you check the following points before each ride.

9 Tighten if necessary.
9 Check fuel level.

NOTE:
Pre-operation checks should be made each time the scooter is used. Such an inspection can be accomplished in a
very short time, and the added safety it assures is more than worth the time involved.

If any item in the Pre-operation Check is not working properly, have it inspected and repaired before operating the
scooter.
