108 - PRACTICAL INFORMATION
BODYWORK MAINTENANCE
- Clean off bird drop-
pings, resinous depos-
its,tarstainsandgrease
marks as soon as pos-
sible; (these all contain
substances which can
cause serious damage
to the paintwork).
To preserve the paintwork and the
plastic trim on your vehicle, we recom-
mend that you wash them regularly.
-
by hand: there are no speciic
precautions to take;
-
using an automatic car wash: re-
peated use of poorly maintained
automatic car washes can lead
to the appearance of microscopic
scratches which give the paint-
work a matt appearance (espe-
cially visible on dark colours);
-
Do not use a dry or abrasive
cloth or detergent or solvent
products to clean the double
lens, complex surface head-
lamps as they are itted with
polycarbonate glass covered
in a protective inish.
Do not use petrol, oil or cloth
stain removers to clean the
bodywork and plastic parts of
your vehicle.
To prevent the development of
bodywork corrosion as a result
of accidental damage (stone
chips, scratches, etc.) have
them repaired swiftly.
-
using a high pressure washer:
always follow the recommenda-
tions on the equipment (pres-
sure and spraying distance).
If there are damaged areas on the
vehicle(paintedbumpersorhead-
lamps), it is not recommended to
direct the high pressure jet onto
them. Wash these areas by hand.
Also avoid the entry of water into
the locks.
-
Fitting/removing the mat
When removing the mat on the driver’s
side, push the seat as far back as pos-
sible and remove the ixings.
Whenreitting, positionthematcorrect-
ly on the pin and clip the ixings. Check
that the mat is secured correctly.
-
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedals:
For all questions relating to the main-
tenance of your vehicle, contact an
approved dealer who can advise you
on quality products selected by our
departments.
-
only use mats suited to the
ixings already present in the
vehicle. It is imperative that
these ixings are used.
-
never it one mat on top of
another.
