General description
A
SAFETY
Carbon Monoxide
• Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide (CO) that is poisonous. Carbon monoxide can cause the loss of con-
sciousness and death.
• If it is necessary to switch on the engine, check that the environment is well ventilated. Never switch on the engine
in an enclosed environment.
• Switching on the engine can only be carried out in an enclosed environment when there are the appropriate devices
for the evacuation of exhaust gases.
Petrol
• Petrol is extremely inflammable and under certain conditions can be explosive.
• Keep sources of heat, sparks and flames away from the work area.
• Always work in a well-ventilated area.
• Never use petrol as a cleaning solvent. Generally, avoid handling it unless it is absolutely necessary.
• Do not use petrol for cleaning components by using compressed air.
• Keep petrol out of reach of children.
Engine oil
• Engine oil can cause skin illnesses if in constant and long contact with the skin.
• If the skin comes into contact with engine oil, wash the parts affected as soon as possible with soap and water.
• If engine oil comes into contact with the eyes, abundantly rinse with water and consult a doctor immediately.
• If engine oil is swallowed, do not provocate vomiting to avoid the aspiration of the product into the lungs. Transport
the injured person immediately to hospital.
• Used oil contains dangerous substances and poisonous for the environment. To substitute oil, it is recommended to
go to an authorised MV Agusta dealer who is equipped to deal with the collection of used oil in respect of the norms
in force.
• Do not dispose of used oil in the environment.
• Keep used oil out of the reach of children.
Engine coolant
• Under certain situations, the ethylene glycol contained in the engine coolant is inflammable and its flame is invisible.
Ethylene glycol would cause serious burns if ignited because it is invisible.
• Avoid bringing the engine coolant into contact with hot parts. Such parts could be sufficiently hot to ignite the coolant.
• The engine coolant (ethylene glycol) can cause irritation of the skin and is poisonous if swallowed.
• If the engine coolant comes into contact with the skin, immediately remove any contaminated clothing and wash with
soap and water. If it comes into contact with the eyes, abundantly rinse with clean water and immediately consult a
doctor. If swallowed, do not provocate vomiting to avoid the aspiration of the product into the lungs. Administer clean
water and transport the injured person immediately to hospital and show the product to the doctor.
• If exposed to high concentrations of vapour, transport the injured person to a non-poisonous atmosphere and if nec-
essary call a doctor.
• Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is still hot. Being under pressure, the engine coolant can be vio-
lently ejected and therefore provocate burns.
• The engine coolant contains dangerous and poisonous substances and is therefore dangerous for the environment.
To substitute used engine coolant, it is advisable to go to the authorised MV Agusta dealer who is equipped to deal
with the collection of used engine coolant in respect of the norms in force.
• Do not dispose of engine coolant in the environment.
• Keep engine coolant out of reach of children.
