BODYWORK

PROTECTION AGAINST ATMOSPHERIC

AGENTS

The car is equipped with the best available

technological solutions to protect the bodywork

against corrosion.

These are the most important:

❒ painting products and systems which give the car

particular resistance to corrosion and abrasion;

❒ use of galvanised (or pretreated) steel sheets, with

high resistance to corrosion;

❒ spraying of plastic parts, with a protective function

in the more exposed points: underdoor, inner

wing, edges, etc;

❒ use of “open” boxed sections to prevent

condensation and pockets of moisture from

triggering rust inside.

BODY AND UNDERBODY WARRANTY

Your car is covered by warranty against perforation

due to corrosion of any original element of the

structure or body.

For the general terms of this warranty, refer to your

Warranty Booklet.

PRESERVING THE BODYWORK

Paintwork

Touch up abrasions and scratches immediately to

prevent the formation of rust.

Maintenance of paintwork consists of washing the

car: the frequency depends on the conditions and

environment where the car is used. For example, in

highly polluted areas, or if the roads are spread

with salt, it is advisable to wash the car more

frequently.

To correctly wash the car, proceed as follows:

❒ remove the aerial from the roof to prevent damage

to it if the car is washed in an automatic system;

❒ if high pressure jets or cleaners are used to wash

the car, keep a distance of at least 40 cm from

the bodywork to avoid damage or alteration.

It should be remembered that the build up

of water can damage the car over a period of time;

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

❒ 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 (e.g. door frames, bonnet,

headlight frames etc.) with special care, as water may

stagnate more easily in these areas. The car should

not be taken to a closed area immediately, but

left outside so that residual water can evaporate.
