CAUTION
•Avoid waxing or polishing plastic or rubber components
• Polishing chromed strips can wearaway or damage the surface
• Polishes containing abrasive sub-stances should not be used
Automatic car wash
•
We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the firstfew months (because the paint will nothave hardened sufficiently).
• An automatic wash is a simple and quickway to clean your car, but it is worthremembering that it may not be as thor-ough as when you yourself go over thecar with sponge and water. Keeping theunderbody clean is most important, espe-cially in the winter. Some automaticwashers do not have facilities for washingthe underbody.
NOTE
Condensation may form temporarily on the inside of the lenses of exterior lights suchas headlights, fog lights, or taillights. Thisis normal and the lights are designed towithstand moisture. Normally, condensa-tion will dissipate after the lights have beenon for a short time.
CAUTION
•Before driving into an automatic car wash, turn off the optional rain sensorto avoid damaging the windshield wip-ers.
• Make sure that side view mirrors, aux-iliary lamps, etc, are secure, and thatany antenna(s) are retracted orremoved. Otherwise there is risk of themachine dislodging them.
• Chromed wheels:
Clean chrome-
plated wheels using the same deter-gents used for the body of the vehicle.Aggressive wheel-cleaning agents canpermanently stain chrome-platedwheels.
WARNING
• When the vehicle is driven immediately after being washed, apply the brakes,including the parking brake, severaltimes in order to remove any moisturefrom the brake linings.
• Engine cleaning agents should not beused when the engine is warm. Thisconstitutes a fire risk.
Polishing and waxing
•
Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery, however, wax-ing may be beneficial.
• Before applying polish or wax the vehiclemust be washed and dried. Tar spots canbe removed with kerosene or tar remover.Difficult spots may require a fine rubbingcompound.
• After polishing use liquid or paste wax.
• Several commercially available productscontain both polish and wax.
• Waxing alone does not substitute for pol-ishing a dull surface.
• A wide range of polymer-based waxescan be purchased today. These waxesare easy to use and produce a long-last-ing, high-gloss finish that protects the
