Periodic Maintenance And Adjustment - Benelli IMPERIALE 400 Manuel Du Propriétaire

Periodic inspection, adjustment, and lu-
brication will keep your vehicle in the sa-
fest and most efficient condition possible.
Safety is an obligation of the vehicle ow-
ner/ operator. The most important points
of vehicle inspection, adjustment, and lu-
brication are explained on the following
pages.
The intervals given in the periodic mainte-
nance charts should be simply considered
as a general guide under normal riding
conditions.
However, depending on the weather, ter-
rain, geographical location, and individual
use, the maintenance intervals may need
to be shortened.
WARNING
Failure to properly maintain the vehicle
or performing maintenance activities
incorrectly may increase your risk of
injury or death during service or while
using the vehicle. If you are not familiar
with vehicle service, have a Benelli dea-
ler perform service.
WARNING
Turn off the engine when performing
maintenance unless otherwise speci-
fied.
• A running engine has moving par-
ts that can catch on body parts or
clothing and electrical parts that
can cause shocks or fires.
• Running the engine while servi-
cing can lead to eye injury, burns,
fire, or carbon monoxide poiso-
ning – possibly leading to death.
See page 1-2 for more information
about carbon monoxide.
WARNING
Brake discs, calipers, drums, and linin-
gs can become very hot during use.
To avoid possible burns, let brake com-
ponents cool before touching them.

Periodic maintenance and adjustment

Emission controls not only function to
ensure cleaner air, but are also vital to
proper engine operation and maximum
performance.
In the following periodic maintenance
charts, the services related to emissions
control are grouped separately.
These services require specialized data,
knowledge, and equipment.
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of
the emission control devices and systems
may be performed by any repair establi-
shment or individual that is certified (if
applicable). Benelli dealers are trained
and equipped to perform these particular
services.
