ADVICE FOR PRESERVING

THE BODYWORK

Paint

Paintwork does not only serve an aesthetic purpose,

but also protects the underlying sheet metal.

In the case of deep scrapes or scores, you are advised

to have the necessary touching up carried out

immediately to avoid the formation of rust.

Only use original products when touching up the

paintwork (see section “Technical specifications”).

Ordinary paint maintenance consists in washing at

intervals depending on the conditions and environment

of use. For example, in highly polluted areas, or if the

roads are sprayed with salt, it is wise to wash the car

more frequently.

To wash the car properly:

❒ remove the aerial from the roof to prevent damages

if the car is washed in an automatic carwash;

❒ wash the body using a low pressure jet of water.

❒ wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy solution over

the bodywork, frequently rinsing with the sponge.

❒ rinse well with water and dry with a jet of air or a

chamois leather.

When drying, take particular care with the less visible

parts like door frames, bonnet and around the

headlights where water may collect. The car should

not be taken to a closed area immediately, but left in

the open so that residual water can evaporate.

Do not wash the car after it has been left in the sun or

with the bonnet hot: this may alter the shine of the

paintwork.

Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned in the same way

as the rest of the car.

Where possible, do not park under trees; the resinous

substance many species release give the paint a dull

appearance and increase the possibility of triggering

rust processes.

IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off

immediately and thoroughly as the acid they contain is

particularly aggressive.

Detergents cause water pollution. Therefore the engine compartment should be washed in areas

equipped for collecting and purifying the liquid used in the washing process.
