switched off. Remove antenna and
external accessories such as roof
racks etc.
If you wash your vehicle by hand,

wheel housings are also thoroughly
rinsed out.
Clean edges and folds on opened
doors and the bonnet as well as the
areas they cover.

cleaning solution approved for
aluminium to avoid damages.Caution
