In low temperatures
In mountainous and/or cold areas, it is
advisable to use a "winter" type fuel suited
to low or minus temperatures.
Battery standby system
If the vehicle is not to be used for a prolonged
p eriod, such as for winter storage, for example,
it is strongly recommended that the battery
be placed on standby in order to protect it and
optimise its ser vice life.
When the battery is on standby, access to
the vehicle is only possible by unlocking
the vehicle using the key in the lock barrel
in the driver's door.
After the battery is switched off, the
information (time, date, radio stations,
etc.) is stored.

Tipper
Safety recommendations
The tipper body is raised by an electro-
hydraulic unit powered by the vehicle's battery.The tipper body is raised and lowered by
pressing and holding the corresponding
buttons on the magnetic and portable remote
control situated on a
support in the cab.
The tipper body is raised by the motor in the
electro-hydraulic unit.
The tipper body is lowered by a solenoid valve
that opens the fluid return of the ram.
A safety device prevents the tipper body from
dropping when it is not moving or is being
raised. •
N
ever drive with a drop panel lowered.
•
E
nsure that there is no person or
obstacle nearby (below or above)
when unloading.
•
N
ever leave the tipper body raised
when not in use.
•
A
lways discharge the load with the
upper part of the rear drop panel
secured.
•
O
bser ve the maximum payload on the
weight plate on the vehicle.
•
C
heck regularly that the suspension
is in good condition and that the tyres
are inflated to the recommended
pressures.
•
D
istribute the load uniformly in the
tipper body.
•
T
ransport similar products that
discharge easily.
•
N
ever drive, even slowly, with the
tipper body raised.
Tip onto a
sur face that is flat
and hard: a sur face that is
sloping or loose could cause
the centre of gravity to shift,
making the whole vehicle
unstable.
