INSTALLATION
Installing the Thumb Tabs
1. See Figure 2. Obtain the two air deflectors (1 and 2) and two thumb tabs (4) from the kit. Position one air deflector so the three hinge mounting Phillips screw heads at the bottom of the deflector are facing you.
NOTE
Ambient temperature should be at least 60° F (16° C) for proper adhesion of the thumb tab to the air deflector wing.
For easiest operation, mount the thumb tab in line with the hinges of the deflector wing, in the molded depression second from the top (see Figure 1 ).
The thumb tab should be mounted with the five ribs at the top.

2. Obtain the alcohol wipe (5) from the kit. Open the packet, and use the wipe to thoroughly clean the thumb tab mounting area of any dirt or grease.
3. Peel the liner from the adhesive backing of the thumb tab. Carefully position the tab to the air deflector, and press firmly into the position indicated in Figure 1. Hold the tab in position with steady pressure for five minutes to ensure proper adhesion.
4. Repeat Step 3 for the opposite air deflector.
Installing the Air Deflectors
  1. See Figure 2. Models with NO air deflectors installed: Remove and discard the six hole plugs (A) from the right and left edges of the inner fairing assembly. Models WITH air deflectors currently installed: Remove and discard the six screws that retain the right and left air deflectors. Remove and discard the deflectors.
  2. Select a right-side (1) or left-side (2) air deflector, and three thumb screws (3) from the kit. Determine the correct side by holding the mounting-hole side of the deflector against the fairing. The thumb tab is accessible from the rider position. The three hinge mounting screws will be visible only from the rider position, and not from the front of the vehicle.
  3. Place the deflector against the inner fairing, lining up the holes. Insert the screws through the deflector holes and into the fairing air deflector holes. Tighten the screws snugly, but DO NOT over-tighten.
  4. Repeat Steps 6 and 7 for the remaining deflector.
AIR DEFLECTOR ADJUSTMENT
WARNING
Adjust air deflectors before riding. Distractions can lead to loss of control, resulting in death or serious injury. (00525b)
  1. Push the thumb tab downward toward the ground to free the wing from the locking mechanism. Rotate the wing into any of four positions (fully open to fully closed).
  2. Release the thumb tab. The spring in the lower hinge mount will automatically push the wing into the nearest position and lock it in place.
