If you put the car 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.
55)
Dry the less visible parts, such as
the door frames, bonnet and the
headlight frames with special care,
as in these areas 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 corrosion.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings must
be washed off immediately and
thoroughly as the acid they contain
is particularly aggressive.5)
Windows
To clean glasses, use specific
cleaning products. Use clean cloths
to avoid scratching the glass or
damaging the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window
inside gently with a cloth following
the direction of the filaments to
avoid damaging the heating device.Engine compartment
At the end of each winter,
thoroughly wash the engine
compartment, taking care to avoid
spraying the water jet directly
onto the electronic control units and
the relay/fuse box on the left side
of the engine compartment (driving
direction). 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
plastic lenses of the front
headlights.
