Vehicle: Precautions for the repair
01D
4 - Safety
Operations on certain equipment and certain parts (for
instance: spring-shock absorber assembly, automatic
transmission, brake system, ABS, airbag, common rail
diesel injection, LPG, etc.) require particular attention
to be paid to safety, cleanliness and care.
The safety symbol used in this manual indicates that
special attention must be paid to the procedure or the
tightening torque values.
Working safely:
-use suitable tools which are in good condition (use of
« multi-purpose » tools, such as adjustable pliers,
etc., should be avoided wherever possible),
-use supports and adopt a correct posture when per-
forming heavy work or raising loads,
-make sure that the procedure used is not dangerous,
-Do not wear any jewellery or other small objects dur-
ing an operation,
-use personal protection (gloves, safety glasses, work
shoes, masks, skin barrier creams, etc.),
-always follow the safety instructions associated with
the operation to be performed,
-do not smoke when working on vehicles,
-use smoke extractors (welding, exhaust gases, etc.),
-do not use harmful products in unventilated rooms,
-do not overstrain yourself or attempt inappropriate
work operations,
-use axle stands when working under a vehicle raised
on a jack,
-do not ingest any chemicals (brake fluid, coolant,
etc.),
-do not open the cooling circuit when it is hot and pres-
surised,
-take care with components that are liable to start up
suddenly (engine cooling fan, etc.).
Respecting the environment:
-do not allow waste refrigerants to escape into the at-
mosphere,
-do not dispose of waste vehicle fluids (oil, brake fluid,
etc.) in drains,
-do not burn discarded products (tyres, etc.).5 - Conclusion
The procedures contained in this document merit your
attention. Please read them carefully in order to reduce
the risk of injury, and avoid using incorrect procedures
that could damage the vehicle or make it dangerous in
use.
Following the recommended procedures will help you
to provide a quality of service which will ensure the ve-
hicles achieve the highest levels of performance and
reliability.
Maintenance and repair operations must be carried out
under the proper conditions to ensure that our vehicles
run safely and reliably.
