ADVICE FOR PRESERVING
THE BODYWORK
Paint
Paintwork does not only serve an aesthetic 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.
Only use original products when touching up the
paintwork (see section “Technical specifications”).
Ordinary paint maintenance consists in washing at
intervals depending on the conditions and environment
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 wash the car properly:
❒remove the aerial from the roof to prevent damages
if the car is washed in an automatic carwash;
❒wash the body using a low pressure jet of water.
❒wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy solution over
the bodywork, frequently 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 frames, bonnet and around the
headlights where water may collect. 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 car.
Where possible, do not park under trees; the resinous
substance many species release give the paint a dull
appearance and increase the possibility of triggering
rust processes.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly as the acid they contain is
particularly aggressive.
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.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the homologation tests set
down by specific European Directives.
Consumption values are defined by means of the following procedures:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extraurban use of the car: the speed varies between
0 and 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: is calculated weighing about 37% of urban cycle consumption and about 63% of
extraurban consumption.
IMPORTANT Road and traffic conditions, weather, driving style, general conditions of the car, fittings and
accessories, load, use of climate control system, roof rack and other situations can affect drag and therefore may
lead to fuel consumption levels different from those shown in the table.
