2017 FIAT QUBO Owners Manual

rinse thoroughly to avoid soap marks staying on
the bodywork or less visible parts.
Some car washes with old-style blades
and/or in a poor state of repair can
damage the paintwork, facilitating the
formation of lines that give the paint a dull/misty
appearance, especially on dark colours. If this
happens, lightly polish the paintwork with
appropriate products.
Dry the less visible parts particularly carefully, such
as the door frames, bonnet and the headlight frames,
where water may stagnate more easily. It is a good
idea to leave the vehicle outdoors for a while after
washing it to give water time to evaporate.
Do not wash the vehicle after it has been left in the
sun or with the bonnet hot: this may alter the shine
of the paintwork.
Exterior plastic parts should be cleaned in the same
way as the rest of the vehicle. Where possible, do
not park the vehicle under trees; the resinous
substances released by many species give the paint a
dull appearance and increase the possibility of rust.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings should be washed
off immediately and thoroughly as the acid
they contain is particularly aggressive.
Detergents cause water pollution.The
vehicle should be washed in areas
equipped for collecting and purifying the
liquid used in the washing process.
Windows
Use specific detergents to clean the windows. Also
use clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or
altering the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window 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 to avoid spraying
the water jet directly onto the electronic control
units and the relay/fuse box on the left side of the
engine compartment (as you look from behind
the wheel). Have this operation performed at a
specialist garage.
IMPORTANT The washing should take place with the
engine cold and the ignition key in the STOP
position. After the wash, make sure that the various
protective devices (e.g. rubber caps and guards)
have not been removed or damaged.

Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.
petrol) or ketenes (e.g. acetone) for cleaning the
plastic lenses of the front headlights.INTERIORS
Check regularly that water is not trapped under the
mats (from dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.) which
could cause the metal to rust.
WARNING
Never use flammable products, such as
petroleum ether or modified petrol,
to clean the inside of the vehicle.The
electrostatic charges which are generated by
rubbing during the cleaning operation may
cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle:
these could explode. Aerosol cans must
not be exposed to temperatures of more than
50°C .When the vehicle is exposed to sunlight ,
the temperature inside can greatly exceed
this value.
SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.
It is advisable to use a damp brush on velvet
upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge and a solution of water
and mild soap.

PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior plastic parts with a
damp cloth and a solution of water and non-abrasive
mild soap. To remove grease and tough stains, use
products designed specifically for cleaning plastics.
These have no solvents and have been designed
so that they do not alter the appearance and colour
of the components.
IMPORTANT Never use spirits or petroleum to
clean the instrument panel glass.
REAL LEATHER STEERING WHEEL/GEAR
LEVER KNOB/HANDBRAKE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
These components must be cleaned with mild soap
and water only. Never use alcohol or alcohol-based
products.
Read the product label carefully before using specific
products for cleaning the interiors: make sure the
product does not contain spirits or alcohol-based
substances.If, when cleaning the windscreen with special
products, window cleaner accidentally drips onto the
leather of the steering wheel/gear lever knob/hand
brake, wipe away immediately and then wash the
affected area with mild soap and water.
IMPORTANT Be careful when installing a steering
wheel locking device not to damage the leather
upholstery.
