WHEELS AND TYRES
SUGGESTIONS ABOUT THE
ROTATION OF THE TYRES
192) 193)97) 98) 99) 100)
The front and rear tyres are subject to
different loads and stress due to steering,
manoeuvres and braking. For this reason
they are subject to uneven wear.
To resolve this problem, tyres should be
rotated at the appropriate time. This
operation is recommended for tyres with
a deep tread pattern, suitable both for
on-road and off-road driving.
Tyre rotation contributes to the
preservation of the grip and traction
performance on wet, muddy or snowy
roads, guaranteeing optimal driveability
of the vehicle.
In the case of irregular wear of the tyres,
the reason must be identified and
corrected before rotating them.
WARNING
192)Do not cross switch the tyres if they
are "unidirectional" type. In this case,
always take care not to fit the tyres with a
direction of rotation that is opposite to
that indicated: you would risk losing grip
and control of the vehicle.
193)Travelling with partially or completely
deflated tyres can cause safety problems
and damage the concerned tyre beyond
repair.
IMPORTANT
97)The road holding qualities of the car
also depend on the correct inflation
pressure of the tyres.
98)If tyre pressure is too low, the tyre may
overheat and be severely damaged as a
result.
99)Do not switch tyres from the
right-hand side of the vehicle to the
left-hand side, and vice versa.100)Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
SNOW CHAINS
101)
Front-wheel drive and four-wheel drive
versions: 7-mm snow chains can be used
on 215/65 R16 and 215/60 R17 tyres.
Chains cannot be fitted on
225/55 R18 tyres. e di incidenti.
IMPORTANTUse snow chains in
accordance with local regulations of each
country. In certain countries, tyres
marked with code M+S (Mud and Snow)
are considered as winter equipment;
therefore their use is equivalent to that of
the snow chains.
The snow chains may be applied only to
the front wheel tyres.
Check the tension of the snow chains
after the first few metres have been
driven.
Using snow chains with tyres with
non-original dimensions may damage the
vehicle.
Using different size or type (M+S, snow,
etc.) tyres between front and rear axle
may adversely affect vehicle driveability,
255

with the risk of losing control of the
vehicle and causing accidents.
IMPORTANT
101)Keep the vehicle's speed down when
snow chains are fitted; never exceed
50 km/h. Avoid potholes, do not drive over
steps or pavements and do not drive long
distances over roads without snow, to
avoid damaging both your vehicle and the
road surface.
BODYWORK
PRESERVING THE BODYWORK
Paintwork102)7)
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent the formation of
rust.
Versions with matt paint
(where provided)
Some parts of the vehicle are painted
with a matte paintwork which requires
special care for its preservation
103)
Washing the car
To correctly wash the car, follow these
instructions:
if the vehicle is washed remove the
aerial from the roof;
Versions with stickers(where
provided): avoid washing with rollers
and/or brushes in washing stations. Wash
the car by hand only, using pH-neutral
detergents Dry it with a damp chamois
leather. Abrasive products and/or
polishes should not be used for cleaning
the car.
if high pressure jets or cleaners are
used to wash the vehicle, keep a
distance of at least 40 cm from the
bodywork to avoid damage or alteration.
Build up of water could cause damage to
the car in the long term;
wash the bodywork using a low
pressure jet of water;
wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy
solution over the bodywork, frequently
rinsing the sponge;
rinse well with water and dry with a jet
of air or a chamois leather.
IMPORTANT
102)In order to preserve the aesthetic
appearance of the paint abrasive products
and/or polishes should not be used for
cleaning the vehicle.
256
SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

103)Avoid washing with rollers and/or
brushes in washing stations. Wash the
vehicle only by hand using neutral pH
detergents; dry it with a wet chamois
leather. Abrasive products and/or polishes
should not be used for cleaning the car.
Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly as the acid
they contain is particularly aggressive.
Avoid (if at all possible) parking the
vehicle under trees; remove vegetable
resins immediately as, when dried, it may
only be possible to remove them with
abrasive products and/or polishes, which is
highly inadvisable as they could alter the
typical opaqueness of the paint. Do not
use pure windscreen washer fluid for
cleaning the front windscreen and rear
window; dilute it min. 50% with water.
Only use pure screen washer fluid when
strictly necessary due to outside
temperature conditions.IMPORTANT
7)Detergents pollute the environment.
Only wash your vehicle in areas equipped
to collect and treat wastewater from this
type of activity.
