Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your AUTOart model remains in mint condition, keep it away from direct sunlight, which can fade the specialized paintwork over time. When handling, it is recommended to use soft cotton gloves to prevent skin oils from affecting the finish or smudging the clear parts. For cleaning, use a high-quality, soft-bristled brush to remove dust from tight areas like the wheels and roll cage, and use a microfiber cloth for the exterior surfaces. Always operate the opening doors and lids slowly and gently to avoid stressing the hinges.
