CORRECT USE
OF THE CAR
Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned in
the same way as the rest of the car.
Where possible, do not park under trees;
the resinous substance many species re-
lease give the paint a dull appearance
and increase the possibility of triggering
rust processes.
IMPORTANTBird droppings must be
washed off immediately and thorough-
ly as the acid they contain is particular-
ly aggressive.Front headlights
Front headlights shall be washed with
soft cloth moistened with water and car
detergent.
IMPORTANT Cleaning headlight lens-
es with a dry cloth will damage the
headlights with lack of performance as
a consequence. Solvents mat the lens-
es with lack of performance as a con-
sequence.
IMPORTANTWhen washing front
headlights using a water nozzle, keep
the water jet at 2 cm at least from lens-
es. Windows
Use specific window cleaner products.
Use also clean cloths to avoid scratching
the glass or damaging the transparen-
cy.
IMPORTANTThe inside of the
rearscreen should be wiped gently with
a cloth in the direction of the filaments
to avoid damaging the heating device.
