WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW WASHING
FLUID
To add fluid, remove cap D (see previous pages) by
manoeuvring the special tab.
Use a mixture of water and TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC35, in the following
concentrations:
30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 and 70%
water in summer.
50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 and 50%
water in winter.
At temperatures below -20°C, use undiluted
TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 fluid.
Check level through the reservoir.
Close cap D by pressing on the central section.
WARNING
Do not travel if the windscreen washer
reservoir is empty: using the windscreen
washer is essential for improving visibility. Some
commercial windscreen washer additives are
flammable.The engine compartment contains
hot components which may set it on fire.
BRAKE FLUID
Unscrew cap E (see previous pages) and check that
the fluid in the reservoir is at the maximum level.
The fluid level in the reservoir must not exceed the
MAX mark.
If you need to top up, you should use the brake fluid
shown in the "Fluids and lubricants" table (see
chapter "Technical specifications").
Note Carefully clean the cap of the reservoir E and
the surrounding surface.
When opening the cap, make sure that no dirt gets
into the reservoir.
For topping-up, always use a funnel with integrated
filter with mesh equal to or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs moisture. For this
reason, if the car is mainly used in areas with a
high degree of atmospheric humidity, the fluid should
be replaced at more frequent intervals than specified
in the "Scheduled Servicing Plan".
Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
