Error interpreting special characters

Navigation

I'm looking for an element, and so far everything's okay, I've tested it before and it worked, but .. using this code 

driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@data-qtip="Configurações"]').click()

is an error, and cmd returns me 

  File "chrome.py", line 105, in tearDown
    driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@data-qtip="Configura├º├Áes"]').click()

Clearly he is not finding out why the "configurations" are unconfigured

this same element works normally 

driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@data-qtip="Sem descrição."]').click()

I added in the code 

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

However, the problem persists, how to proceed?

The way I've managed to solve: 

driver.find_element_by_partial_link_text('Conf').click()

But I still can not understand why that mania does not work.

Verify that your .py file is saved as Unicode (UTF-8) and not ASCII / ANSI. Also I would use the u prefix in the string: u'//*[@data-qtip="Configurações"]'
