12V BATTERY (1/2)
The secondary battery is a 12 V bat-
tery: this supplies the energy required
to operate vehicle equipment (lights,
windscreen wipers, audio system, etc)
and certain safety systems, such as
ABS.
For your safety and the
proper operation of the
vehicle’s electrical equip-
ment (lights, windscreen
wipers, etc.), any work on the se-
condary 12V battery (removal, dis-
connection, etc.) must be carried
out by a specialist.
Risk of serious burns or electric
shocks.
Respect categorically the repla-
cement intervals (without exceeding
them) as stated in the maintenance
document.
The battery is a specific type.
Please ensure it is replaced with the
same type.

BODYWORK MAINTENANCE (2/2)
We have selected special products
to care for your vehicle and you can
obtain these from the manufactur-
er’s accessory outlets.
You should
– Observe the vehicle stopping dis-tances when driving on gravelled
surfaces to prevent paint damage.
– Quickly repair, or have repaired, areas where the paint has been
damaged, to prevent corrosion
spreading.
– Remember to visit the body shop periodically if your vehicle has an
anti-corrosion warranty. Refer to the
Maintenance Document.
– Respect local regulations about washing vehicles (e.g. do not wash
your vehicle on a public highway).
– Spray mechanical components, hinges, etc. with products approved
by our Technical Department to
protect them after they have been
cleaned. – Wash your car frequently, with the
engine off , with cleaning products
recommended by the manufacturer
(never use abrasive products). Rinse
thoroughly beforehand with a jet:
– spots of tree resin and industrial
grime;
– bird droppings , which cause a
chemical reaction with the paint
that rapidly discolours paint-
work and may even cause the
paint to peel off;
wash the vehicle immediately to
remove these marks since it is im-
possible to remove them by pol-
ishing;
– salt, particularly in the wheel
arches and underneath the body
after driving in areas where the
roads have been gritted;
– mud in the wheel arches and un-
derneath the body which forms
damp patches.
Cleaning the roof
Use a soft cloth or cotton wool.
Soak it lightly with a protective agent
recommended by our Technical
Department.
Spread the protective agent carefully
in circular movements using a soft or a
cotton cloth.
