you should
– Respect local regulations about
washing vehicles (e.g. do not wash
your vehicle on a public highway).
–

A
lways follow the recommenda-
tions supplied with the high-pressure
cleaning equipment (jet distance and
pressure).
–

B
efore going through a roller type
car wash, return the windscreen
wiper stalk to park position (refer
to the information on “Windscreen
wash/wipe” in Section 1), check the
mounting of external accessories,
additional lights and door mirrors
and be sure to hold the wiper blades
and radio aerial in place with adhe-
sive tape. Remove the radio aerial
mast if your vehicle is fitted with this
equipment.
Remember to remove the tape and
refit the antenna after washing. –

After
driving off-road (eg. on muddy,
dusty or sandy terrain) quickly clean
the radiator from the outside of the
vehicle through the openings in the
bumper, to prevent it from becoming
blocked or clogged (risk of engine
overheating).
–

W
ash your vehicle frequently with
the engine off , using shampoo ap-
proved by our Technical Department
(never use abrasive products) and
rinse thoroughly using a warm or
cold water jet (never hot):
–

s
pots of tree resin and industrial
grime;
–

the
layer of dust or mud and any
insects;
–

b
ird droppings, which contain
chemicals that rapidly discolour
paintwork and may even cause
the paint to peel off ;



W
ash the vehicle immediately to
remove these marks since it is im-
possible to remove them by pol-
ishing; –


salt
deposited in the wheel arches
and underneath the body after
driving in areas where the roads
are chemically treated;
–

mud

in the wheel arches and un-
derneath the body which form
damp patches.
–

C
lean mud and sand from the
wheels, in particular the inside of the
wheels and the brakes, as this can:
–

reduce
the braking efficiency and
damage the components of the
braking system;
–

cause
vibrations in the bodywork
and steering column.
We have selected special products
to care for your vehicle and you can
obtain these from the manufactur-
er’s accessory outlets.

–

do
not use them when the wind-
screen or rear screen are dry;
–

free

Replace the wiper blades as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency
(approximately once a year).
