OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
SUGGESTIONS
The condition of a vehicle is the owner's responsibility. Vital
functions of the vehicle can start to deteriorate quickly and
unexpectedly, even if the vehicle remains unused (for instance,
as a result of exposure to the elements). Any damage, fluid leakage
or loss of tire air pressure could have serious consequences.
Therefore, check all main vehicle components with great care
before use.
WARNING!
AFTER A LONG RIDE AT HIGH RPM, WHEN YOU
STOP THE VEHICLE
DO NOT TURN THE ENGINE OFF IMMEDIATELY
BUT LET IT RUN IDLE FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS.
4.1 ENGINE BREAK-IN
Good running in is essential to ensure that the life of engine,
transmission and moving parts is sufficiently long.
During the first 1000 km (625 miles):
•
Avoid using full throttle and maintaining a constant speed for a
long time.
•
Do not use the vehicle over 80% of the top speed.
After the first 1000 km, increase speed progressively, as
established by the limits envisaged by rules in force.
Both during and after running in, use only UNLEADED
PETROL.
