CAUTION
Before performing any maintenance on vehicles with the Stop&Start system, turn the ignition key to 0 (Key-
OFF).
Before performing any maintenance procedures requiring the ignition key to be in position II on vehicles with
the Stop&Start system, deactivate the Stop&Start system with the relative button, ensuring that the
specific icon and the message "Stop&Start OFF" are shown on the TFT display, and that the LED on the
on/off button itself is off.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury to persons working on the vehicle and in the vicinity of the
vehicle in the event of the engine unexpectedly starting.
Use tools very carefully in order to prevent damaging the painted surfaces of the wheel rim.
Tyres that have been fitted for over 3 years must be checked to verify they are still suitable for use.
CAUTION
Tyre replacement is recommend after 4 years of normal use. Frequent use in maximum load conditions and
at high temperatures may lead to premature deterioration.
