Washing the car
· The car should be washed at regular intervals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spots adhere to the paint and may cause
damage.
NOTE: It is particularly important to wash the car frequently in the wintertime to prevent corrosion, when salt has
been used on the roads.
· When washing the car, do not expose it to direct sunlight. Use lukewarm water to soften the dirt before you wash
with a sponge, and plenty of water, to avoid scratching.
· Bird droppings: Remove from paintwork as soon as possible. Otherwise the finish may be permanently damaged.
· A detergent can be used to facilitate the softening of dirt and oil.
· A water-soluble grease solvent may be used in cases of sticky dirt. However, use a wash place equipped with a
drainage separator.
· Dry the car with a clean chamois and remember to clean the drain holes in the doors and rocker panels *.
· The power radio antenna must be dried after washing.
· Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar remover after the car has been washed.
· A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapy water can be used to clean the wiper blades. Frequent cleaning improves
visibility considerably.
· Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheel housings, fenders, etc.).
· In areas of high industrial fallout, more frequent washing is recommended.
CAUTION: During high pressure washing, the spray mouthpiece must never be closer to the vehicle than 13" (30
cm). Do not spray into the locks.
· When washing or steam cleaning the engine, avoid spraying water or steam directly on the electrical components or
toward the rear side of the engine.
· After cleaning the engine, the spark plug wells should be inspected for water and blown dry if necessary.
Suitable detergents
Special car washing detergents should be used. A suitable mixture is about 2.5 fl. oz. (8.5 cl) of detergent to 2.6 US
gal. (10 liters) of warm water. After washing with a detergent the car should be well rinsed with clean water.
WARNING!
· When the car is driven immediately after being washed, apply the brakes several times in order to remove any
moisture from the brake linings.
· Engine cleaning agents should not be used when the engine is warm. This constitutes a fire risk.
