- To reduce the risk of cuts, protect yourself
from sharp metal components when wash ing the underbody or the inside of the wheel
housings.
- After washing the vehicle, the braking effect may be delayed due to moisture on the
brake rotors or ice in the winter . This in
creases the risk of an accident. The brakes
must be dried first with a few careful brake
applications.
@ Note
- If you wash the vehicle in an automatic car
wash, you must fold the exterior mirrors in
to reduce the risk of damage to the mirrors.
Power folding exterior mirrors* must only
be folded in and out using the power folding
function.
- To reduce the risk of damage to the rims
and tires, compare the width between the
wheels on your vehicle with the distance be
tween the guide rails in the car wash.
- To reduce the risk of damage, compare the
height and width of your vehicle with the
Care and cleaning
height and width of the inside of the car

- T o reduce the risk of paint damage, do not
wash the vehicle in direct sunlight .
- To reduce the risk of damage to the surface,
do not use insect removing sponges, kitchen
sponges or similar items .
- Matte finish painted vehicle components:
- To reduce the risk of damage to the sur-
face, do not use polishing agents or hard
wax.
- Never use protective wax. It can destroy
the matte finish effect .
- Do not place any stickers or magnetic
signs on vehicle parts painted with matte
finish paint. The paint could be damaged
when the stickers or magnets are re
moved.
@ For the sake of the environment
Only wash the vehicle in facilities specially de
signed for that purpose. This will reduce the
risk of dirty water contaminated with oil from
entering the sewer system.
