Cleaning & care
19.1
Cleaning and care - exterior
The polyester outer skin (glass-fibre reinforced plastic) of the vehicle was dyed at the factory,
i.e. not painted. We recommend the following steps for the care of the vehicle:
Wash the vehicle with plenty of cold to lukewarm water and cleaning agent. Then dry
thoroughly.
You can purchase suitable cleaning agents and additives from your ADRIA dealer.
Bird droppings, tree gum, berries, road salt, sea salt, etc. must always be removed
immediately.
Clean windows only with plenty of lukewarm water and mild soap solution.
Treat rubber seals on doors, windows and flaps with talc or Vaseline.
Check the condition of the undersealant once a year. If the undersealant is defective,
contact your ADRIA dealer.
The chassis is galvanised. Seal areas where rust is setting in (e.g. caused by stone-
chipping or other effects) by the application of cold zinc.
After driving in winter on salt-covered roads, thoroughly clean the galvanised surfaces
and aluminium components and rinse with clear water.
Warning!
Risk of injury and of damage to the vehicle roof
The front area of the roof of the vehicle is not designed for the weight of standing per-
sons.
Standing or walking on the elevation of the alcove or the front opening hood of partially
integrated vehicles is not allowed!
Do not walk on roof structures or roof fittings, e.g.. roof hoods, roof railings etc.
Walking on the roof of the vehicle is permissible only in the rear area.
Important!
•
Never drive the vehicle through a wash facility. The acrylic glass windows will be
scratched by the rotating cleaning brushes.
•
When cleaning the vehicle with a high-pressure cleaner, maintain a distance of approx.
70 cm from the nozzle to the vehicle surface.
•
Never point the water jet directly towards doors, windows, flaps and vent openings.
Splashing water can penetrate the vehicle through the circumferential air gap between
the glass dome and the frame (forced ventilation).
•
Do not spray directly on deco foils as they could become detached.
•
Never point the water jet directly towards electric accessories and plug connections.
•
Do not use glass cleaners, abrasives, solvents, cleaning agent containing methylated
spirit or alcohol. This would result in cracks or embrittlement of the acrylic material.
•
Avoid everything that could cause scratching or scoring.
•
Avoid torsional forces when opening and closing the windows.
