use and maintenance RSV mille - RSV mille R
Clean the vehicle frequently if it used in
particular areas or conditions, such as:
– Polluted areas (cities and industrial ar-
eas).
– Areas characterized by an high percent-
age of salinity and humidity (sea areas,
hot and humid climates).
– Particular conditions (use of salt and
anti-ice chemical products on the roads
during the winter).
– Avoid leaving deposits of industrial and
polluting powders, tar spots, dead in-
sects, bird droppings, etc. on the body.
– Avoid parking the vehicle under trees,
since in some seasons residues, resins,
fruits or leaves fall down, which contain
substances that may damage the paint.
WARNING
After the vehicle has been washed, its
braking functions could be temporarily
impaired because of the presence of
water on the grip surfaces.
Calculate long braking distances to
avoid accidents.
Brake repeatedly to restore normal con-
ditions.
Carry out the preliminary checking op-
erations, see p. 49 (PRELIMINARY

CHECKING OPERATIONS).
