RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber hoses are
concerned, carefully follow the “Service schedule”
in this section.
Indeed ozone, high temperatures and prolonged
lack of fluid in the system may cause hardening and
cracking of the hoses, with possible leaks. Careful
control is therefore necessary.
WINDSCREEN/
REAR WINDOW WIPERS
BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using special
products; TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is
recommended.
If the rubber blades are bent or worn they should be
replaced. In any case they should be changed once a
year.
A few simple notions can reduce the possibility of
damage to the blades:
❒if the temperature fall below zero, make sure
that ice has not frozen the rubber against glass.
If necessary, thaw using an antifreeze product;
❒remove any snow from the glass: in addition to
protecting the blades, this prevents effort on the
motor and overheating;
❒do not operate the windscreen and rear window
wipers on dry glass.

needle.
Windscreen nozzles are fluid-dynamic and do not require adjustment;
windscreen fluid is atomized to cover a preset glass area.

The rear window nozzle like the windscreen nozzle is fluid-dynamic
and do not require adjustment; rear window fluid is atomized to cover
a preset glass area.
