IN AN EMERGENCY
182
IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURS
– It is important to keep calm.
– If you are not directly involved in
the accident, stop at least ten meters
away from the accident.
– If you are on a motorway do not
obstruct the emergency lane with
your car.
– Turn off the engine and turn on the
hazard lights.
– At night, illuminate the scene of the
accident with your headlights.
– Act carefully, you must not risk be-
ing run over.
– Mark the accident by putting the
red triangle at the regulatory distance
from the car where it can be clearly
seen.
– Call for rescue making the infor-
mation you give as accurate as you can.
One the motorway use the special col-
umn-mounted emergency phones.– In pile-ups on the motorway, par-
ticularly when visibility is bad, there is
a high risk of other vehicles running in-
to those already stopped. Get out of
the car immediately and take refuge
behind the guard-rail.
– Remove the ignition keys from the
vehicles involved.
– If you can smell petrol or other
chemicals, do not smoke and make
sure all cigarettes are extinguished.
– Use a fire extinguisher, blanket, sand
or earth to put out fires no matter how
small they are. Never use water.
– If the doors are blocked, do not at-
tempt to smash the windscreen to get
out of the car. It is made of layered
glass and is very hard. Side and rear
window are much more easily broken.IF ANYONE IS INJURED
– Never leave the injured person
alone. The obligation to provide as-
sistance exists even for those not di-
rectly involved in the accident.
– Do not congregate around the in-
jured person.
– Reassure the injured person that
help is on its way and will arrive soon.
Stay close by to calm him/her down in
case of panic.
– Unfasten or cut seat belts holding
injured parties.
– Do not give an injured person any-
thing to drink.
– Do not move an injured person un-
less the following situations arise.
– Pull the injured person from the
car only if it risks catching fire, it is
sinking in water or is likely to fall over
a cliff or similar. Do not pull his/her
arms or legs, do not bend the head
and, as far as possible, keep the body
horizontal.

CAR MAINTENANCE
211
Only use genuine products when
touching up the paintwork (see the
“Technical specifications” chapter).
Ordinary maintenance of the paint-
work means washing it. The frequen-
cy you should do this depends on the
conditions and the environment the
vehicle is driven in. For example: areas
with high level of air pollution, roads
sprinkled with road saltwash, parking
under trees which drop resin. In these
cases, wash your vehicle more fre-
quently.To wash the vehicle properly:
1)wash the body using a low pres-
sure jet of water;
2)wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy
solution over the bodywork, fre-
quently rinsing the sponge;
3)rinse well with water and dry with
a jet of air or a chamois leather.
When drying the vehicle, be careful
to get at those parts which are not so
easily seen e.g. the door frames, bon-
net and around the headlights where
water can most readily collect. You
should leave the vehicle out in the
open so that any water remaining can
evaporate more easily.
Do not wash the car after it has been
parked in the sun or while the bon-
net is hot: it could take the shine off
the pain.Outside plastic parts must be cleaned
following the usual car washing pro-
cedure.
IMPORTANTIf you wish having
the car washed at an automatic wash-
ing station remove the antenna from
the roof to prevent damaging it.
Where possible avoid parking the ve-
hicle under trees; the resinous sub-
stances that certain species of tree
shed dull the paintwork and increase
the possibility of rust forming.
IMPORTANTBird droppings must
be washed off immediately and with
great care as their acid is particularly
aggressive.
Detergents pollute wa-
ter. For this reason, the
vehicle must be washed in
an area equipped for the collec-
tion and purification of the liquids
used while washing.
