GENERAL SAFETY MEASURES REGARDING THE ELECTRICAL
SYSTEM
-Work on the electrical system should only be carried out by
specialized personnel with suitable work and verification
methods.
-Stop the engine before working on the electrical system.
-All cables and plugs should be marked up before being
disconnected and must be protected against contact with metal
parts by fitting them with protective caps or taping them with
insulation tape, for example.
-Any defects in the electrical installation (broken insulation, for
example) must be repaired immediately.
-The battery's negative (-) cable must always be disconnected
before starting any cleaning operation. It is not enough to simply
turn off the battery's cut-off switch.
-If it is necessary to clean the interior of the cabin with water or
water-soluble detergents, it is important to take special care not
to damage the electronics system. Use only authorized solvents.
Avoid breathing in the fumes from any thinners used.
-After the cleaning operation, make sure all electrical
components are completely dry before reconnecting the battery.
-The electrical conductors must be protected against wear and
should be checked regularly for damage; change as required.
-Unprotected electrical conductors should not be allowed to rest
on pipes containing oil or brake fluid.
