HEADLIGHT WASHERS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
They are located inside the front bumper fig. 170.
They are activated when the dipped beam and/or
main beam headlights are on and the windscreen
washer is activated.
Check the correct condition and cleanliness of
nozzles at regular intervals.
BODYWORKPROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC
AGENTS
The car is equipped with the best available
technological solutions to protect the bodywork
against corrosion.
These are the most important:
❒painting products and systems which give the
car particular resistance to corrosion and
abrasion
❒use of galvanised (or pretreated) steel sheets,
with high resistance to corrosion
❒spraying the underbody, engine compartment,
wheel arch interiors and other parts with highly
protective wax products
❒spraying of plastic parts, with a protective
function in the more exposed points: underdoor,
inner wing, edges, etc.
❒use of “open” boxed sections to prevent
condensation and pockets of moisture from
triggering rust inside.
