❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions;
❒operation of lights (headlights, direction
indicators, emergency lights, etc.);
❒operation of the windscreen wiper/

below zero;
❒frequently idling engine or long distance
low speed driving (e.g. taxis or door-to-
door deliveries) or in case of a long
term inactivity;
❒urban driving;
perform the following inspections more
frequently than shown on the Scheduled
Servicing Plan:
❒check front disk brake pad conditions
and wear;❒check cleanness of bonnet and boot
locks and lever cleanness and lubrica-
tion;
❒visually inspect the conditions of: the
engine, gearbox, transmission, pipes and
hoses (exhaust - fuel - brakes), rubber
parts (boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);

RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber
hoses are concerned, carefully follow the
instructions provided in the “Scheduled
servicing plan” in this section.
Ozone, high temperatures and prolonged
lack of fluid in the system may cause hard-
ening and cracking of the hoses, with pos-
sible leaks. Careful inspections are there-
fore necessary.Remember that road holding
also depends on the correct
tyre inflation pressure.
WARNING
If the pressure is too low the
tyre overheats and this can
cause serious damage.
WARNING
Do not cross switch the
tyres, moving them from the
right of the vehicle to the left and
vice versa.
WARNING
Never submit alloy rims to
repainting treatments re-
quiring the use of temperatures ex-
ceeding 150°C. The mechanical prop-
erties of the wheels could be im-
paired.
