IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs moisture. For this
reason, if the vehicle is mainly used in areas with a
high degree of atmospheric humidity, the fluid should
be replaced at more frequent intervals than specified
in the “Schedule Servicing Plan”.
Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts.Wash with water
immediately if this should happen.
WARNING
Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
c
orrosive. In the event of accidental
contact , wash the parts immediately with water
and mild soap, then rinse with plenty of water.
Call a doctor immediately if swallowed.
WARNING
Symbolon the contain indicates a
synthetic brake fluid, which is different
from a mineral fluid. Using a mineral-type fluid
will damage the special rubber seals of the
braking system beyond repair.POWER STEERING FLUID
Loose the cap A fig. 172: check that the fluid in the
reservoir is included between the MIN and MAX
on the reservoir.
The level may go over the MAX line when the oil is
hot. If topping up is required, make sure the oil
you use has the same specifications as that already in
the system.
WARNING
Prevent power steering fluid from
c
oming into contact with hot engine
parts: it is flammable.

WARNING
Remember that the road holding
qu
alities of your vehicle also depend on
the correct inflation pressure of the tyres.
WARNING
Excessively low pressure will cause
o
verheating of the tyre and may cause
severe tyre damage.
WARNING
Do not exchange the tyres from the left
to
the right of the vehicle and vice versa.
WARNING
Do not repaint alloy wheel rims at
temper
atures higher than 150°C.The
mechanical characteristics of the wheels might
be compromised.
RUBBER LINES
Follow the requirements in “Scheduled Servicing
Plan” in this section carefully for brake and fuel
rubber lines.
Ozone, high temperatures and a prolonged lack of
fluid in the system may cause hardening and cracking
of the tubes, which could result in leaks. Careful
inspections are therefore necessary.
