Periodically check that there is uid in the
tank.
The uid lling manifold for the
windscreen wiper and washer can
be accessed by lifting the luggage
compartment lid.
• Lift the cap and ll the tank with the
speci ed uid (see the “Recommended
lubricants and uid” table on page
14) until it can be seen in the lling
manifold.
• Close the cap.
Wheels and tyres
To guarantee top performance and
endurance and to permit the best tyre
adjustment on the rim, it is important to
comply with the following instructions for
the rst 200-300 km (125–190 mi.) of use
of new tyres:
• avoid sudden acceleration
• avoid sharp braking and steering
• drive at moderate speed on straight roads
and on curves.
How to use the tyres
For safe driving it is of prime importance that
the tyres be constantly maintained in good
conditions.
The in ation pressure must correspond to
the speci ed values and the tyres should
be checked only when they are cold. In
fact, the pressure increases as the tyre
temperature progressively increases.
Never reduce the pressure if the tyres are
hot.
Insuf cient tyre pressure can lead to
overheating, damage and even destruction
of the tyres.
In ating the tyres to a pressure different from
that speci ed (see table on page 12) will
render the tyre pressure monitoring system
inef cient (where tted.
Violent impact against sidewalks, holes in
the road and other obstacles of various
types, as well driving on rough roads for
long periods of time may cause damage to
the tyres not always visible to the naked
eye.
Check the tyres regularly for any signs of
damage (e.g. scratches, cuts, cracks, bulges,
etc.).
Sharp objects that have penetrated the tyres
may have caused damage, which can only
be diagnosed by removing the tyre.
Have any damage inspected by an expert as
it may considerably reduce tyre life.
Remember that tyres deteriorate with time
even if used little or not at all.
Cracks in the tread and sidewalls, possibly
accompanied by bulging, are sure signs of
ageing.
Have the tyres changed at an Authorised
Ferrari Service Centre who have the
necessary equipment available in order to
prevent that a carelessly carried out operation
damages the sensor located inside the wheel
rim of vehicles equipped with the tyre pressure
monitoring system.
Have a specialist assess whether old tyres are
suitable for use.
It is recommended to replace the tyres after six
years of normal use.
Frequent use in maximum load conditions
and high temperatures may accelerate ageing.
In any case, tyres that have been on a vehicle
for more than 3 years must be checked by a
specialist.
