MAINTENANCE
Note: DO NOT use a high pressure hose to clean the
front compartment – damage to the car's electronic
systems may occur.
From time to time, but particularly during winter months
when salt has been used on the roads, use a hose to wash
the underside of the car. Flush away accumulations of mud
and thoroughly clean those areas where debris can easily
collect (wheel arches and panel seams, for example).
IMPORTANT
• Avoid cleaning the vehicle in direct sunlight.
• When cleaning the vehicle in winter avoid spraying
water directly onto door locks and panel gaps due
to risk of icing.
• Do not use rough sponges or cloth to clean the car,
this will damage the paintwork finish.
• When cleaning the headlamps do not use a dry cloth
or sponge, use only warm soapy water.
Cleaning with High Pressure Cleaner
Always read the manufacturers operating instructions.

When using high pressure washers, always ensure there is
adequate distance between the spray nozzle and any soft
materials, decals or rubber seals.
Note: DO NOT direct the pressure washer nozzle
directly toward the high voltage charging points or
high voltage battery connections on the underside of
the vehicle.
IMPORTANT
• Please pay attention to the operating instructions of
high pressure cleaner.
• Soft parts on the vehicle should be kept in a large
enough distance from the high pressure cleaner.
Body Protection
After washing, examine the paintwork for damage. If the
damage has revealed bare metal, use a colored primer first,
then apply the correct colour base coat and finish off with
a lacquer pencil, if appropriate. Carry out this treatment
after washing but before polishing or waxing.
extensive damage to paint or bodywork must be repaired
in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
