Cleaning the vehicle
Cleaning the exterior
Proper care on the part of the owner is
essential for a long life of the vehicle.
Below is a list of the main precautions to be
followed.
• Certain parts of the vehicle should not be
left wet or dirty for long periods of time,
in particular, the passenger and luggage
compartment floors must always be kept
clean and dry. The drain holes under the
doors should be kept clean to allow any
water to drain.
• The underbody and the lower surfaces of
the vehicle should be cleaned regularly,
and more frequently (at least once a
week) if the vehicle is used on salty or
rough roads. It is important to clean the
vehicle thoroughly: cleaning that only
wets the vehicle, without removing dirt,
etc. completely can prove damaging to
the body.
• The vehicle must be washed regularly
with suitable equipment. Do not use very
hot water or steam on the paintwork or
lower surfaces.
It is advisable to soften any dirt first and
then remove it with a stream of water at
room temperature.
• Do not wash the car in direct sunlight or
when the bodywork is still warm.
• Be careful that the stream of water does
not hit the paintwork too hard.
• Wash the car with a sponge and a
solution of mild soap and water.
• Rinse the car again with a stream of water
and dry it with a piece of chamois leather.
When the vehicle has been washed,
slightly depress the brake pedal at
moderate speed before driving at normal
speed so that the brake discs and pads can
be dried.
In order to maintain the shine of the
paintwork, polish it once or twice a year
with the products recommended by
Ferrari .
• Any areas that are cracked or chipped as
a result of stones, scratches or parking
maneuvers, etc. must immediately be
treated by an Authorized Ferrari
Dealer .
• Do not park the vehicle in damp and/or
unventilated areas for long periods of
time.
Cleaning the interior - Cleaning and
care of the leather upholstery
Regular treatment, at least 3-4 times a year,
will ensure that the original quality, natural
characteristics and softness of the leather
upholstery in your Ferrari is properly
maintained.
Specific leather care products (e.g., cleaner
and cream) approved and tested by Ferrari
are also available .
These products can be ordered through
your Authorized
Ferrari Dealer’s Parts
Department both individually and as
part of the “Care Kit” which includes the
complete range of cleaning products for
your vehicle.
For instructions on using the “Care Kit”
products, see the “Carrozzeria Scaglietti”
Owner’s Manual and the instructions
included with the Care Kit.
The following products must be avoided
when cleaning the leather: harsh
detergents, turpentine, liquid stain
removers, benzene, solvents and domestic
cleaning products. All of these products
could cause damage the natural material.
