CAR MAINTENANCE
238
Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine com-
partment should be carefully washed, with-
out directing the jet against electronic con-
trol units. Contact a specialised workshop to
have this done.
Detergents cause water
pollution. Therefore the en-
gine compartment should
be washed in areas equipped for
collecting and purifying the liquid
used in the washing process.
IMPORTANTThe car should be washed
with the engine cold and the ignition key at
STOP. After washing make sure that the
various protections (e.g. rubber caps and
various covers) have not been damaged or
removed. Windows
Use specific products to clean the windows.
Use clean cloths to avoid scratching or al-
tering the transparency of the glass.
IMPORTANTThe inside of the
rearscreen should be wiped gently with a
cloth in the direction of the filaments to
avoid damaging the heating device.
Front headlights
IMPORTANTDo not use aromatic sub-
stances (e.g. petroleum) or ketones (e.g.
acetone) to clean the front headlight plas-
tic transparents.
Never use inflammable
products like fuel oil ether
or rectified petrol for clean-
ing inside the car. The electrostat-
ic charges generated when rubbing
to clean may cause fire.
INTERIOR FITTINGS
Periodically check that water is not trapped
under the mats (due to water dripping off
shoes, umbrellas, etc.) which could cause
oxidisation on the sheet metal.
CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC
AND VELVET PARTS
– Use a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner to
remove dust. Velvet is cleaned better if the
brush is moistened.
– Rub the seat with a sponge moistened
with a solution of water and neutral deter-
gent.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the
table below are determined on the basis of
the homologation tests set down by specif-
ic European directives.
The procedures below are followed for
measuring consumption:
–urban cycle: cold starting followed by
driving that simulates urban use of the car;–extra-urban cycle: frequent accel-
erating in all gears, simulating extraurban
use of the car; the speed varies between 0
and 120 km/h;
–combined consumption: is calcu-
lated weighing about 37% of urban cycle
consumption and about 63% of extraurban
consumption.

traffic situations, weather conditions,
driving style, general conditions of
the vehicle, trim level/equip-
ment/accessories, load, presence of
a roof rack, use of the climate con-
trol system, other situations that af-
fect air drag may lead to different fu-
el consumption levels than those
measured (see “Reducing running
costs and environment pollution” in
the chapter “Correct use of the car”).
