5. Operating the Security Kit
Once installed, the security kit is straightforward to operate:

- To Release the Navigation Device: Insert the provided key into the lock and turn it to disengage the locking arm. This will allow you to remove your navigation device.
- Key Management: Keep your keys in a safe and accessible place. It is advisable to have a spare key.
6. Maintenance
The Wunderlich Navigation Security Kit requires minimal maintenance to ensure long-term functionality:
- Regular Inspection: Periodically check all mounting screws for tightness. Vibration from riding can sometimes loosen fasteners.
- Cleaning: Clean the security kit with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the black coating.
- Lubrication: If the lock mechanism feels stiff, apply a small amount of graphite lubricant or a silicone-based spray specifically designed for locks. Do not use oil-based lubricants as they can attract dirt.
- Corrosion Prevention: The kit is made of stainless steel with a black coating, offering good corrosion resistance. However, in harsh environments (e.g., coastal areas, winter with road salt), occasional cleaning and a protective spray can further extend its life.
