Car washes General information
Regularly remove foreign objects such as
leaves in the area below the windshield when
the hood is raised.
Wash your vehicle frequently, particularly in
winter. Intense soiling and road salt can dam‐
age the vehicle.

When using steam jets or high-pressure
washers, hold them a sufficient distance away
and use a maximum temperature of
140 ℉/60 ℃.

high pressures or temperatures can cause
damage or preliminary damage that may then lead to long-term damage.
Follow the user's manual for the high-pressure
washer.◀
