Use a mixture of water and TUTELA PROFESSIONAL
SC 35, in the following concentrations:
30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 and 70% water in
summer.
50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 and 50% water in
winter.
At temperatures below –20 °C, use undiluted TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC 35 fluid.
Check level through the reservoir.
Do not travel with the windscreen
washer reservoir empty: the windscreen
washer is fundamental for improving visibility.

windscreen washers are inflammable.
The engine compartment contains hot parts
which could start a fire if they come into
contact.

❒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.
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 the 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.
To protect the paint more effectively, polish
occasionally with special protective waxes; when the
paint tends to cloud because of a build-up of smog,
polish with slightly abrasive protective waxes.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and carefully as the acid they contain is
particularly aggressive. VEHICLE BODY AND UNDERBODY
WARRANTY
Your vehicle is covered by warranty against perforation
due to rust of any original element of the structure or
body.
For the general terms of this warranty, refer to the
Warranty Booklet.
ADVICE FOR PRESERVING THE BODYWORK
Paint
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:
❒remove the aerial from the roof to prevent damage
to it if the vehicle is washed in an automatic system;
❒wash the body using a low pressure jet of water;

INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not trapped under the
mats (due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.)
which could cause oxidisation of the sheet metal.
Detergents pollute the environment.
The vehicle should be washed in areas
equipped for collecting and purifying the
liquid used in the washing process.
Glasses
To clean glasses, use specific window cleaner products.
Also use clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or
damaging the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently with
a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid
damaging the heating device.
Engine compartment
Wash the engine compartment thoroughly at the end of
every winter. Be careful not to direct the jet of water
onto electronic control units. Adequately protect the
upper air vents to prevent damage to the windscreen
wiper motor. Have this operation performed at a
specialised workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should take place with the
engine cold and the ignition key in the STOP position.
After the washing operation, make sure that the various
protections (e.g. rubber caps and guards) have not been
removed or damaged.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.:
petrol) or ketones (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning the front
headlight plastic lenses.
Never use flammable products, such as
petrol, ether or rectified petrol, to clean
the vehicle interior. 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:
risk of explosion Aerosol cans must not
be exposed to a temperature exceeding 50 °C.
When the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the
internal temperature can greatly exceed this
value.
