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.
