Body Lubrication
Ensure that the locks and bodywork junction
points, including components such as the
seat guides, door hinges (and rollers), trunk
and hood are periodically lubricated with
lithium based grease to ensure correct, silent
operation and to protect them from rust and
wear.
Thoroughly clean the components, elimi-
nating every trace of dirt and dust. After
lubricating, eliminate excess oil and grease.
Also pay particular attention to the hood
closing devices, to ensure correct operation.
During operations on the hood, be sure to
perform with the engine cold, also remember
to check, clean and lubricate the locking,
release and safety devices.
Make sure the hood's secondary latch keeps
the hood from opening when the primary
latch is released.
Lubricate the external lock cylinders twice a
year. Apply a small amount of high-quality
lubricant directly into the lock cylinder. If
necessary, contact your authorized dealer.
