BRAKE FLUID fig. 12
Release cap: check that the liquid
contained in the tank is at the maxi-
mum level.
Fluid level in the reservoir must not
exceed the MAXmark.
Use the brake fluid shown in the
“Fluids and lubricants” table (see
“Technical Specifications”chapter).
NOTE Carefully clean the cap of the
reservoir and the surrounding surface.
When opening the cap, make sure
that no dirt gets into the reservoir.
For topping up always use a funnel
with integrated filter that has a mesh
inferior or equal to 0.12 mm.
fig. 12L0D0213m
IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs
moisture. For this reason, if the car is
mainly used in areas with a high de-
gree of atmospheric humidity, the
fluid should be replaced at more fre-
quent intervals than specified in the
“Service schedule”.
Prevent brake fluid which
is highly corrosive from
coming into contact with
painted parts. Should that
occur, immediately wash with wa-
ter.
The brake fluid is poiso-
nous and highly corrosive.
In the case of accidental contact,
wash the parts with water and
mild soap and rinse with plenty of
water. In case of swallowing im-
mediately call a doctor.
WARNING
The symbol π, on the con-
tainer, indicates a syn-
thetic brake fluid, which is differ-
ent from a mineral fluid. Use of a
mineral type fluid will damage the
special rubber seals of the braking
system beyond repair.

❒the tyre ages even if rarely used.
Cracks in the tread and on the
sidewalls are a sign of ageing.
Have the tyres checked by spe-
cialised personnel if they have
been fitted for longer than 6 years.
Remember to check the spare
wheel very carefully;
❒In the case of replacement, always
fit new tyres, avoiding those of du-
bious origin;
❒If a tyre is changed, also change
the inflation valve;
❒to allow even wear between the
front and rear tyres, it is advisable
to change them over every 10-15
thousand kilometres, keeping
them on the same side of the car
so as not to reverse the direction of
rotation.
Remember that road hold-
ing depends also on the
correct tyre inflation pressure.
WARNING
If the pressure is too low
the tyre overheats and this
can cause it serious damage.
WARNING
Do not cross switch the
tyres, moving them from the
right of the car to the left and vice
versa.
WARNING
Never subject alloy rims to
repainting treatments re-
quiring the use of temperatures ex-
ceeding 150°C. The mechanical
properties of the wheels could be
impaired.
WARNING
RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel
rubber hoses are concerned, carefully
follow the “Service schedule” in this
section.
Ozone, high temperatures and pro-
longed lack of fluid in the system may
cause hardening and cracking of the
hoses, with possible leaks. Careful in-
spections are therefore necessary.
