Windows
Use specific window cleaner products.
Use also clean cloths to avoid scratching
the glass or damaging the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window in-
side gently with a cloth in the direction
of the filaments to avoid damaging the
heating device.Engine compartment
At the end of each winter, thoroughly
wash the engine compartment taking care
not to direct the water jet against the elec-
tronic control units and the relay/fuse con-
trol unit on the left side of the engine com-
partment (running direction). Have this
operation performed at a specialised
workshop.
IMPORTANT Perform this operation on
a cold engine and with the key at STOP.
After the washing operation, make sure
that the various protections (e.g. rubber
caps and guards) have not been removed
or damaged.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic sub-
stances (e.g.: petrol) or ketenes (e.g.: ace-
tone) for cleaning front headlight plastic
lens. Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned in
the same way as the rest of the vehicle.
Where possible, do not park the vehicle
under trees; the resinous substance re-
leased by many species 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 ag-
gressive.
Detergents cause water pol-
lution. The vehicle should be
washed in areas equipped for
collecting and purifying the
liquid used in the washing process.
