Information on using a powerwasher
\nWARNINGRisk of accident when usinghigh-pressure cleaning equipment withround-spraynozzles
Thewater jet from around-spraynozzle (dirtgrinder) may cause damagetotires and sus‐pension componentsthat is not visible.
Components damaged inthisway mayfailunexpectedly.
Do not use high-pressure cleaningequipment withround-spraynozzlestocleanyourvehicle.
Damaged tires or suspension compo‐nents must bereplaced immediately.
Toavoid damageto yourvehicle, observethefol‐lowing when using a powerwasher:
Rkeepthe SmartKeyat least10ft(3 m)awayfromthevehicle. Otherwisethe trunk lidcould open unintentionally.
Rmaintain a distance of at least11.8 in(30 cm)tothevehicle.
Rvehicles with decorativefoil:parts ofyourvehicle are covered with a decorativefoil.Maintain a distance of at least27.6 in(70 cm) betweenthefoil-covered parts ofthevehicle andthe nozzle ofthe powerwasher.Movethe powerwasher nozzle around whilstcleaning. Thewatertemperature ofthepowerwasher must notexceed140 °F(60 °C).
Robservethe information onthe correct dis‐tance inthe equipment manufacturer's oper‐ating instructions.

ROnly use tires and wheels ofthe same type(summer tires, winter tires, MOExtendedtires) andthe same make.
ROnly install wheels ofthe same size on oneaxle (left andright).
It is only permissibletoinstall a differentwheel size intheevent of aflat tire in ordertodrivetothe specialistworkshop.
ROnly install tires ofthe correct size ontothewheels.
RVehicles with a tire pressure monitoringsystem:All installed wheels must be equip‐ped with functioning sensorsforthe tirepressure monitoring system.
RAttemperatures below 45 °F (7 °C), use win‐ter tires or all-season tires marked M+Sforall wheels.
Winter tires bearingtheMsnowflake sym‐bol in additiontothe M+S marking providethe best possible grip in wintryroad condi‐tions.
RFor M+S tires, only use tires withthe sametread.
