DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE
RUNNING-IN
State-of-the-art production methods
allow high precision in the construction
and coupling of components.
Nonetheless, the moving parts need to be
bedded in, especially in the first hours of
driving the vehicle.
Engine and transmission
Avoid exceeding 5000 RPM for the first
1000 km.
After starting, do not exceed 4000
RPM until the engine has warmed up
sufficiently (oil temperature: 65÷70 °C).
•
Do not let the engine run at a
constantly high speed for a prolonged
time.
BEFORE A TRIP
Preliminary checks
Check the following at regular intervals
and always before long trips:
•
tyre pressure and condition;
•
levels of fluids and lubricants;
•
condition of the windscreen wiper
blades;
•
warning lights and exterior lights’
operation.
In any case, it is advisable to perform
these checks at least every 1000 km, and
to always comply with the maintenance
schedule.
It is also advisable to:
•
clean the glass on the exterior lights
and all other glass surfaces;
•
properly adjust the mirrors, steering
wheel, seats and seat belts.

CAUTION
Use unleaded fuel only!
