CLEANING
Clean the vehicle frequently if it used in
particular areas or conditions, such as:
– Polluted areas (cities and industrial areas).
– Areas characterized by a high percentage
of salinity and humidity (sea areas, hot and
humid climates).
– Particular conditions (use of salt and anti-
ice chemical products on the roads during
the winter).
– Avoid leaving deposits of industrial and
polluting powders, tar spots, dead insects,
bird droppings, etc. on the body.
– Avoid parking the vehicle under trees,
since in some seasons residues, resins,
fruits or leaves fall down, which contain
substances that may damage the paint.
After the vehicle has been washed, its
braking functions could be temporarily
impaired because of the presence of
water on the grip surfaces.
Calculate long braking distances to
avoid accidents.
Brake repeatedly to restore normal
conditions.
Carry out the preliminary checking
operations, see p. 71 (PRELIMINARY
CHECKING OPERATIONS).
To remove dirt and mud from the painted
surfaces use a low- pressure water jet,
carefully wet the dirty parts, remove mud

chamois leather.
To clean the outer parts of the engine use
a degreaser, brushes and wipers.
