Windows
Use specific window cleaner products to clean cloths
to avoid scratching the glass or damaging the
transparency.
IMPORTANT The inside of the rear window should
be wiped gently with a cloth in the direction of the
filaments to avoid damaging the heating device.
Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine compartment
should be carefully washed, without directing the jet
against electronic control units. Contact a specialised
workshop to have this done.
IMPORTANT Wash 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.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.:
petrol) or ketones (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning front
headlight plastic lens.
IMPORTANT Wash 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/JERSEY
UPHOLSTERY
❒Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dust.
❒Rub the seats with a sponge moistened with a
solution of water and neutral detergent.
PLASTIC PARTS INSIDE THE CAR
Clean the plastic parts inside the car with a cloth
moistened with a solution of water and non-abrasive
neutral detergent. To remove grease or hard stains,
use special solvent-free products designed not to alter
the appearance and colour of components.
IMPORTANT Do not use alcohol or petrol to clean
the instrument panel.
Detergents cause water pollution.
Therefore the engine compartment should
be washed in areas equipped for
collecting and purifying the liquid used in
the washing process.
