Vehicle Storage - Aston Martin DB 9 2010 Manual

To clean the seat belts, use mild soap and water; do not use bleach,
solvents or dyes as they can weaken the material. Allow the seat belts
to dry thoroughly before use.
Under Hood Cleaning
Under hood cleaning using high pressure hoses or steam cleaners
should not be carried out. The electronic control module
connections and fuse boxes can be damaged by indiscriminate use of
high pressure cleaning equipment.

Vehicle Storage

Recommendations
These recommendations apply to new and pre-owned vehicles
either in Dealer or Customer ownership.
If your vehicle is not to be used for periods in excess of three months
it should be stored in a dry, well ventilated building.
1. Drive the vehicle for a sufficient distance to warm the oil in the
engine and the transaxle; make sure that the internal
components of the engine are lubricated.
2. Check the engine coolant level. Top up if necessary with the
correct antifreeze and water solution.
3. In order to take the weight off the tires, raise the vehicle with a
jack and place supports under the front and rear suspension.
4. If the vehicle is not raised from the ground, increase the tire
pressures to 50 psi (3.4 bar / 340 kpa). Cover the tires to
exclude any light. Turn the wheels ¼ turn every month to avoid
tire flat spots.
5. Volante Only.
Close the Roof.
Do not leave the Roof in the lowered (folded) position for longer
than necessary. In certain circumstances permanent soiling along
folds may occur.
6. If mains power is available, connect and set the battery
conditioner to ON to maintain the battery in a fully charged
state.
