4.7.9.b CHANGING THE FUEL FILTER
DANGER
•
Change the filtering element after work, when the engine has cooled down to 40÷45°C.
•
When these operations are carried out, fuel may be spilled; clean the dirty areas immediately, in order
to prevent any risk of slipping or fire.
•
Oils, filters, the coolant and the battery are considered special waste and must be collected and dis-
posed of according to the anti-pollution regulations in force.
The fuel filter can be reached after opening the engine hood
(See “3.5.1 ENGINE HOOD”).

check the tightness of the fuel filter and of the fuel pump
