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 Service Booklet.
– 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 our Technical
Department (never use abrasive
products) and be sure to jet-rinse off:
– 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.
