WARNING! 
l     When the vehicle is driven immediately after being washed, apply the bra\
kes several times in order 
to remove any moisture from the brake linings. 
l     Engine cleaning agents should not be used when the engine is warm. This \
constitutes a fire risk. 
Automatic washing - simple and quick 
l     We do NOT recommend washing your vehicle in an automatic wash during the\
 first six months 
(because the paint will not have hardened sufficiently). 
l     An automatic wash is a simple and quick way to clean your vehicle, but i\
t is worth remembering that 
it may not be as thorough as when you yourself go over the vehicle with \
sponge and water. Keeping the 
underbody clean is most important, especially in the winter. Some automa\
tic washers do not have 
facilities for washing the underbody. 
l     Before driving into an automatic car wash, make sure that side view mirr\
ors, auxiliary lamps, etc, are 
secure, and that any antenna(s) are retracted or removed. Otherwise th\
ere is risk of the machine 
dislodging them.
Exterior lighting 
Condensation may form temporarily on the inside of the lenses of exterio\
r lights such as headlights, fog 
lights, or tail lights. This is normal and the lights are designed to wi\
thstand moisture. Normally, 
condensation will dissipate after the lights have been on for a short ti\
me.
Polishing and waxing 
l     Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery\
, however, waxing may be 
beneficial. 
l     Before applying polish or wax the vehicle must be washed and dried. Tar \
spots can be removed with 
kerosene or tar remover. Difficult spots may require a fine rubbing comp\
ound. 
l     After polishing use liquid or paste wax. 
l     Several commercially available products contain both polish and wax. 
l     Waxing alone does not substitute for polishing a dull surface. 
l     A wide range of polymer-based car waxes can be purchased today. These wa\
xes are easy to use and 
produce a long-lasting, high-gloss finish that protects the bodywork aga\
inst oxidation, road dirt and 
fading. 
l     Do not polish or wax your vehicle in direct sunlight (the surface of th\
e vehicle should not be warmer 
than 113° F (45° C).
