IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be

washed off immediately and thor-

oughly as the acid they contain is par-

ticularly aggressive.

Detergents cause water pol-
lution. Therefore the engine
compartment should be
washed in areas equipped

for collecting and purifying the liq-
uid used in the washing process.

ADVICE FOR PRESERVING THE
BODYWORK

Paint

Paintwork does not only serve an

aestethic purpose, but also protects

the underlying sheet metal.

In the case of deep scrapes or scores,

you are advised to have the necessary

touching up carried out immediately

to avoid the formation of rust. Use

only original paint products for touch-

ing up (see “Bodywork paint identifi-

cation plate” in “Technical specifica-

tion” section). Normal paint mainte-

nance consists in washing at intervals

depending on the conditions and en-

vironment of use. For example, in

highly polluted areas, or if the roads

are sprayed with salt, it is wise to

wash the car more frequently.

To correctly wash the car:
❒ remove the aerial from the roof to

prevent damage to it if the car is

washed in an automatic system;

❒ wash the body using a low pressure

jet of water;

❒ wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy

solution over the bodywork, fre-

quently rinsing with the sponge;

❒ rinse well with water and dry with

a jet of air or a chamois leather.

When drying, take particular care

with the less visible parts like door

surrounds, bonnet and around the

headlights where water may stagnate.

The car should not be taken to a

closed area immediately, but left in

the open so that residual water can

evaporate. Do not wash the car after

it has been left in the sun or with the

bonnet hot: this may alter the shine of

the paintwork. Exterior plastic parts

must be cleaned in the same way as

the rest of the vehicle. Where possi-

ble, do not park under trees; the

resinous substance many species re-

lease give the paint a dull appearance

and increase the possibility of trigger-

ing rust processes.

To keep intact the aesthetic
properties of the paintwork
do not use abrasive and/or
polish products for cleaning

the car bodywork.

Windows

Use specific window cleaner products.

Use also clean cloths to avoid scratch-

ing the glass or damaging the trans-

parency.

IMPORTANT The inside of the

rearscreen should be wiped gently

with a cloth in the direction of the fil-

aments to avoid damaging the heat-

ing device.

Engine compartment

At the end of the winter the engine

compartment should be carefully

washed, without directing the jet

against electronic control units. Con-

tact a specialised workshop to have

this done.

IMPORTANT The car should be

washed with the engine cold and the

ignition key at STOP. After washing

make sure that the various protections

(e.g.: rubber caps and various covers)

have not been damaged or removed.

INTERIORS

Periodically check that water is not

trapped under the mats (due to water

dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.)

which could cause oxidisation of the

sheet metal.

CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC
AND VELVET PARTS

Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to

remove dust. Velvet is cleaned better

if the brush is moistened.

Rub the seats with a sponge moist-

ened with a solution of water and

neutral detergent.

Never use inflammable
products like fuel oil ether

or rectified petrol for cleaning in-
side the car. The electrostatic dis-
charges generated when rubbing to
clean may cause fire.

CLEANING LEATHER SEATS

Remove dried on dirt with lightly

moistened chamois leather or cloth

without pressing too hard.

Remove liquid or grease stains with a

dry absorbent cloth without rubbing.

Then wipe with a soft cloth or chamois

leather with water and neutral soap.

If the stain persists, use specific prod-

ucts, carefully following the instruc-

tions for use.

IMPORTANT Never use alcohol or al-

cohol-based products.

INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS 

Use appropriate products designed to

preserve the appearance of compo-

nents.

IMPORTANT Never use spirit or pe-

troleum to clean the instrument panel.

Do not keep aerosol cans
in the car: they might ex-

plode. Aerosol cans must never be
exposed to a temperature above
50°C. The temperature inside the
car exposed to the sun may go well
beyond that figure.
