If the level is low, slowly pour a mixture of 50% demineralised water and 50% PARAFLUUP (made by PETRONAS LUBRICANTS) through the filler neck A until the level reaches MAX. The 50-50 mixture of PARAFLUUP and demineralised water gives freeze protection up to −35°C. Do not add oil with different characteristics to those of the existing engine oil. For particularly harsh climate conditions, a mixture of 60% PARAFLUUP and 40% distilled water is recommended.

❒ use a sponge to wipe a slightly soapy solution over the bodywork, frequently rinsing the sponge; ❒ rinse with plenty of water and dry with a jet of air or a chamois leather. Take particular care when drying the less visible parts, such as the door, bonnet and headlight frames, where water can stagnate more easily. It is a good idea to leave the car in the open for a while after washing it to give time for the water to evaporate. Detergents pollute water.
