Washing the car
The vehicle should be washed at regular inter- vals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spotsadhere to the paint and may cause damage.To help prevent corrosion, it is particularlyimportant to wash the car frequently in thewintertime. The following points should be kept in mind when washing and cleaning the car: •Avoid washing your car in direct sunlight. Doing so may cause detergents and waxto dry out and become abrasive. To avoidscratching, use lukewarm water to softenthe dirt before you wash with a softsponge, and plenty of sudsy water.
• Bird droppings
: Remove from paintwork
as soon as possible. Otherwise the finishmay be permanently damaged.
• A detergent can be used to facilitate thesoftening of dirt and oil.
• Dry the car with a clean chamois andremember to clean the drain holes in thedoors and rocker panels.
• Tar spots can be removed with tarremover after the car has been washed.
• A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapywater can be used to clean the wiperblades. Frequent cleaning of the wind-shield and wiper blades improves visibilityconsiderably and also helps prolong theservice life of the wiper blades. •
Wash off the dirt from the underside(wheel housings, fenders, etc).
• In areas of high industrial fallout, morefrequent washing is recommended.
NOTE
When washing the car, remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in thedoors and sills.
