PROTECTION AGAINST ATMOSPHERIC
A
GENTS
The vehicle is equipped with the best available
technological solutions to protect the bodywork
against corrosion.
These include:
Painting products and systems which give the
vehicle resistance to corrosion and abrasion.
Use of galvanized (or pre-treated) steel sheets,
with high resistance to corrosion.
Spraying of plastic parts, with a protective
function in the more exposed points: under
door, inner wing, edges, etc.
Use of “open” boxed sections to prevent
condensation and pockets of moisture which
could favor the formation of rust inside.
Use of special films to protect against abrasion
in exposed areas (e.g. rear wing, doors, etc.).
CORROSION WARRANTY
Your vehicle is covered by Corrosion 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.
CAUTION!
The Manual Trunk Opening Device allows the
trunk to be opened without a key, even if the
vehicle is locked. Do not use this Device
unless the vehicle is parked in a secure area.
