2014 Alfa Romeo Giulietta windscreen

IMPORTANT
37) Do not operate the windscreen
wiper with the blades lifted from
the windscreen.
BODYWORKPROTECTION AGAINST
ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS
The car is equipped with the best
available technological solutions to
effectively protect the bodywork against
corrosion.
These include:
❒painting products and systems which
give the car resistance to corrosion
and abrasion
❒use of galvanised (or pretreated) steel
sheets, with high resistance to
corrosion;
❒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 which could favour the
formation of rust inside;
❒use of special films to protect against
abrasion in exposed areas (e.g. rear
wing, doors, etc.).BODY AND UNDERBODY
WARRANTY
Your car is covered by warranty against
perforation due to rust of any original
element of the structure or bodywork.
For the general terms of this warranty,
refer to the Warranty Booklet.
PRESERVING THE
BODYWORK
Paintwork
6)
38)
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent the formation of
rust.
Maintenance of paintwork consists of
washing the car: the frequency
depends on the conditions and
environment where the car is used. For
example, it is advisable to wash the
car more often in areas with high levels
of atmospheric pollution or salted
roads.
On some versions the car may be
equipped, on request, with an exclusive
opaque paint on the roof which, in
order to be maintained intact, requires
special care: see the instructions in
the warning.
39)
To correctly wash the car, follow these
instructions:

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

❒remove the aerial from the roof when
using a carwash;
❒if high pressure jets or cleaners are
used to wash the car, keep a
distance of at least 40 cm from the
bodywork to avoid damage or
alteration. Bear in mind that a build
up of water could cause damage
to the car in the long term;
❒wash the bodywork using a low
pressure jet of water;
❒wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy
solution over the bodywork,
frequently rinsing the sponge;
❒rinse well with water and dry with a
jet of air or a chamois leather.
Dry the less visible parts (e.g. door
frames, bonnet, headlight frames, etc.)
with special care, as water may
stagnate more easily in these areas. 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.IMPORTANT
Avoid parking under trees; the resin
dropped by trees makes the paintwork
go opaque and increases the possibility
of corrosion.
Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly as the acid
they contain is particularly aggressive.
Windows
Use specific detergents and clean
cloths to prevent scratching or altering
the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window
inside gently with a cloth following the
direction of the filaments to avoid
damaging the heating device.
Front headlights
Use a soft cloth soaked in water and
detergent for washing cars.
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic
substances (e.g. petrol) or ketenes (e.g.
acetone) for cleaning the plastic lenses
of the front headlights.
IMPORTANT When cleaning with a
pressure washer, keep the water jet at
least 20 cm away from the headlights.Engine compartment
At the end of every winter, wash the
engine compartment thoroughly, taking
care not to aim the jet of water directly
at the electronic control units or at
the windscreen wiper motors. Have this
operation performed at a specialised
workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should take
place with the engine cold and the
ignition key in the STOP position. After
the washing operation, make sure
that the various protections (e.g. rubber
caps and guards) have not been
removed or damaged.
IMPORTANT
6) Detergents cause water pollution.
Only wash your car in areas
equipped to collect and treat
wastewater from this type
of activity.
219

IMPORTANT
38) In order to preserve the aesthetic
appearance of the paint abrasive
products and/or polishes should
not be used for cleaning the car.39) Avoid washing with rollers
and/or brushes in washing
stations. Wash the car only by
hand using neutral pH detergents;
dry it with a wet chamois leather.
Abrasive products and/or polishes
should not be used for cleaning
the car. Bird droppings must
be washed off immediately and
thoroughly as the acid they
contain is particularly aggressive.
Avoid (if at all possible) parking
the car under trees; remove
vegetable resins immediately as,
when dried, it may only be
possible to remove them with
abrasive products and/or polishes,
which is highly inadvisable as
they could alter the typical opacity
of the paint. Do not use pure
windscreen washer fluid for
cleaning the front windscreen and
rear window; dilute it min. 50%
with water. Only use pure screen
washer fluid when strictly
necessary due to outside
temperature conditions.
INTERIORS
154) 155) 156)
Periodically check the cleanliness of the
interior, beneath the mats, which could
cause oxidation of the sheet metal.
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.
LEATHER SEATS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Remove the dry dirt with a slightly
damp buckskin or cloth, without
exercising too much pressure. Remove
any liquid or grease stains using an
absorbent dry cloth, without rubbing.
Then clean with a soft cloth or buckskin
cloth dampened with water and mild
soap. If the stain persists, use specific
products and observe the instructions
carefully.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol. Make
sure that the cleaning products used
contain no alcohol or alcohol
derivatives, even in small quantities.
