Vehicle upkeep and clean-
ing
Basic observations
Regular and careful care helps to maintain the
value of your vehicle. In addition, it may be-
come a prerequisite to demand the warranty
in the event of corrosion damage and deficien-
cies in the paint coat of the bodywork.
Specialised workshops have the necessary
care products. Please follow the instructions for
application on the packaging.
WARNING
Cleaning products and other materials
used for car care can be damaging to your
health if misused.
Always keep care products in a safe place,
out of the reach of children. Danger of poi-
soning!
For the sake of the environment
When purchasing car care products, chose
products that are compatible with the envi-
ronment.
The waste from car-care products should
not be disposed of with ordinary household
waste.
Washing the vehicle
The longer you take to clean the tanks, e.g. re-
mains of insects, bird excrements, tree resin or
anti frost salt adhered to your vehicle, the more
damage it can cause to the surface. High tem-
peratures, for instance strong sunlight, further
intensify the damage.
Before washing the car, soften the dirt using
plenty of water.
To remove encrusted dirt such as insects, bird
droppings or tree resin, use a lot of water and a
microfibre cloth.
Have the underside of the vehicle washed after
the end of the anti frost salts in winter.
High pressure cleaning equipment
When washing the vehicle with a high-pressure
cleaner, always follow the operating instruc-
tions for the equipment. This applies particu-
larly to the operating pressure and the distance
between the spraying water.
Do not aim the jet directly towards the side
windows, doors, sunroof or covers; the same
applies for the tyres, rubber hoses, damping
material, sensors or camera lenses. Keep a dis-
tance of at least 40cm.
Do not remove snow and ice with a high-pres-
sure cleaner.
Do not use a nozzle that sprays the water out in
a direct stream or one that has a rotating jet for
forcing o dirt.
The water temperature must not exceed 60°C.
Automatic car washes
Spray the vehicle before starting the car wash.
Make sure that the windows and sunroof are
closed and the wipers are deactivated. Bear
in mind the instructions of the car wash tunnel
operator, especially if your vehicle has detach-
able parts.
Use of car washes without brushes if possible.
Washing by hand
Clean your vehicle from top to bottom with a
soft sponge or with a brush. Only use cleaning
products that do not contain solvents.
Polishing
Polishing is only necessary when the vehicle's
paintwork has lost its gloss and cannot be re-
stored with care products.
Do not polish matt painted surfaces! If the
paintwork is polished, the surface will be irrep-
arably damaged.
Washing vehicles with matte paintwork
To wash the vehicle, it is best to use a spe-
cial cleaner for matte paintwork. For further
information, please contact an ocial service
centre.
