Windscreen washer fig. 188
If the jet of fluid is inadequate, firstly check that there is
fluid in the reservoir: (see “Checking fluid levels” in this
chapter).
Then check that the nozzle holes are not clogged, if nec-
essary clean them using a needle.
The windscreen jets are directed by adjusting the nozzle
angle.
Fluid jets shall be directed at about
1/3height from the win-
dow upper edge.

WARRANTY
Your car is covered by warranty against perforation due
to rust of any original element of the structure or body.
For the general terms of this warranty, refer to the War-
ranty Booklet.
ADVICE FOR PRESERVING THE BODYWORK
Paint
Paintwork does not only serve an aesthetic purpose, but
also protects the underlying sheet metal.
Touch-up abrasions and scratches immediately to prevent
the formation of rust. Only use genuine spare paint prod-
ucts for touch-ups (see “Bodywork paint identification plate”
in the “Technical Specifications” chapter).
Standard maintenance of paintwork consists in washing the
vehicle; its frequency depends on the conditions and envi-
ronment where the vehicle is used. For example, in highly
polluted areas, or if the roads are sprayed with salt, it is
advisable to wash the car more frequently.
BODYWORKPROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS
The main causes of corrosion are the following:❒
atmospheric pollution;
❒
salty air and humidity (coastal areas, or hot humid cli-
mates);
❒
seasonal environmental conditions.
Not to be underestimated is also the abrasive action of
wind-borne atmospheric dust and sand, along with mud
and gravel raised by other vehicles.
On your car, Fiat implemented the best manufacturing
technologies to effectively protect the bodywork against
corrosion.
These include:
❒
painting products and systems which give the car par-
ticular resistance to corrosion and abrasion;
❒
use of galvanised (or pretreated) steel sheets, with high
resistance to corrosion;
❒
spraying the underbody, engine compartment, wheel
housing internal parts and other parts with highly pro-
tective wax products;

Glasses
To clean glasses, use specific window cleaner products.
Also use clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or dam-
aging the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently with
a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid damag-
ing the heating device.
Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine compartment should
be carefully washed, without directing the jet against any
electronic control unit. Have this operation performed
at a specialised workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should take place with the en-
gine cold and the ignition key in the
STOP
position. After
the washing operation, make sure that the various pro-
tections (e.g. rubber caps and guards) have not been re-
moved or damaged.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.: petrol)
or ketenes (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning front headlight plas-
tic lens. To correctly wash the vehicle, proceed as follows:
❒
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, frequently rinsing with the sponge;
❒
rinse well with water and dry with a jet of air or
a chamois leather.
Dry the less visible parts, such as the door frames, bonnet
and the headlight frames with special care, as in these ar-
eas water may stagnate more easily. The car should not
be taken to a closed area immediately, but left outside 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 paint-
work.
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 ap-
pearance and increase the possibility of triggering rust
processes.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off imme-
diately and thoroughly as the acid they contain is particu-
larly aggressive.
Detergents cause water pollution. The vehi-
cle should be washed in areas equipped for
collecting and cleaning the liquid used in the
washing process.

INTERIORSRegularly check that water is not trapped under the mats
(due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.), as this
would cause oxidation of the sheet metal.
Never use flammable products, such as
petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean the
car inside. The electrostatic charges which are
generated by rubbing during the cleaning opera-
tion may cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol bottles in the vehicle:
risk of bursting. Aerosol bottles must not
be exposed to a temperature exceeding 50 °C.
When the car is exposed to sunlight, inner tem-
perature can greatly exceed this value.
WARNING
SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. It is
advisable to use a moist brush on velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened with a solution of
water and neutral detergent.
INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior parts with a moist cloth and
a solution of water and mild soap. Use specific products
for cleaning plastic, without solvents and specifically de-
signed to prevent damage to the appearance and colour
of the treated parts to remove grease and tough stains.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol or petroleum to clean
the instrument panel.
CLEANING SEAT PROTECTORS
In order to clean/remove stains from the
seat protectors, it is not advisable to use
alcohol or alcohol based products (e.g. solvents).
