BODYWORK
PROTECTION AGAINST
ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS
The main causes of corrosion are the
following:
atmospheric pollution;
salty air and humidity (coastal areas,
or hot humid climates);
seasonal environmental conditions.
ADVICE FOR
PRESERVING THE
BODYWORK
Paintwork
Paintwork does not only serve an
aesthetic purpose, but also protects the
underlying sheet metal.
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent rust formation.
Use only original paint products for
touch-ups (see “Bodywork paint
identification plate” in the “Technical
specifications” section).
Normal maintenance of paintwork
consists in washing the car: the
frequency depends on the conditions
and environment where the car is used.
For example, it is advisable to wash
the vehicle more often in areas with
high levels of environmental pollution or
on roads spread with salt.To correctly wash the vehicle, proceed
as follows:
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.
If you put the vehicle through a car
wash, follow these recommendations:
remove the aerial from the roof
so it does not get damaged;
the vehicle should be washed with
water added to a soapy solution;
rinse thoroughly to avoid soap
marks remaining on the bodywork or
less visible parts.
Windows
To clean glasses, use specific cleaning
products. Use clean cloths to avoid
scratching the glass 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
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic
substances (e.g. petrol) or ketones (e.g.
acetone) for cleaning the plastic lenses
of the headlights.

WARNING
59)Some automatic systems equipped
with old generation blades and/or with
a poor maintenance can damage the paint,
promoting the creation of microscoring
which give an opaque/coated appearance
to the paint, especially on dark colours.
In this case, just lightly polish with specific
products.
WARNING
6)Detergents pollute the water. The
vehicle should be washed in areas
equipped for collecting and purifying the
liquid used in the washing process.

FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil that has been thoroughly developed and tested in order to meet the
requirements of the Service Schedule. Constant use of the prescribed lubricants guarantees the fuel consumption
and emission specifications. Lubricant quality is crucial for engine operation and duration.

WARNING
LUGGAGE CARRIER
Follow the instructions contained in the assembly kit carefully. Assembly must be performed by qualified personnel.
After travelling for a few kilometres, check to ensure that the fixing screws for the attachments are well tightened. Distribute the load
evenly and pay attention to side winds when driving.
Fully comply with the regulations in force concerning maximum clearance. Never exceed the maximum permitted loads (see chapter
"Technical specifications").
ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER
Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy wheels or non-standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the ventilation of the brakes and
affect efficiency under sharp, repeated braking or on long descents. Make sure that nothing obstructs the pedal stroke (mats, etc.).
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The Diesel particulate filter (DPF) reaches high temperatures during normal operation. Therefore, do not park the vehicle on flammable
material (grass, dry leaves, pine needles etc.): fire hazard.
RIM PROTECTOR TYRES
DO NOT fit wheel hub caps when using integral hub caps fixed (with springs) to the steel rim and after sale tyres provided with a Rim
Protector. Use of unsuitable tyres and wheel caps may cause sudden decrease of tyre pressure.
