1.17 GENERAL REGULATION FOR THE PREVENTION OF FIRE RISK
▶ Assemblies or parts made using flammable material must never be fitted near the vehicle's ex-
haust system.
Synthetic materials must not be exposed to temperatures exceeding 70 °C; adequate protections must be implemented if higher
temperatures are expected (isolating shielding).
The factory mounted fuel tank is made from materials belonging to this class and therefore pay careful attention if fitting in a posi-
tion other than the original position.

1 Isolating shielding
Particular attention must be paid to prevent the spillage of hydraulic fluids or inflammable liquids above components which may
become hot or overheated.
Therefore, when pipes must be inevitably installed near the engine, exhaust system, catalytic converter or turbocharger, suitable
insulating shields or protective plates must be provided.
