Care of vehicle and cleaning
Care of vehicLe and
cleaning
General notes
Regular and careful care helps to maintain the
value of the vehicLe. This may also be one of the
requirements for upholding any warranty claims
in the event of corrosion or paint defects.
Qualified workshops carry stocks of suitable car
care products. PLease
foLLow
the instructions for
use on the packaging.
A WARNING
- Cleaning products and other materials used
for car care can damage health if misused.
- Car care products can contain toxic substan­
ces and must always be kept in a safe place
out of reach of children.

+) For
the sake of the environment
- Please choose care products that are not
harmful to the environment.
- Surplus cleaning materials should not be
disposed of together with ordinary house­
hold waste.
Washing the vehicle
The longer residues like insects, bird droppings,
resinous tree sap or road salt are alLowed to re­
main on the vehicle, the more damage they can
do to the paintwork. High temperatures (for in­
stance in direct sunlight) further intensify the
damage.
Before washing, soak heavy dirt with plenty of
water.
Stubborn dirt, such as bird droppings or resinous
tree sap, is best removed with plenty of water
and a micro-fibre cloth.
After the period when salt is put on the roads,
have the underside of the vehicLe washed thor­
oughly.
High-pressure cleaners
When cleaning the vehicle with a high-pressure
cleaner, always follow the operating instructions
for the equipment. This applies particularly to
the operating pressure and the spraying dis­

tance.
Do not point the spray jet directly at the
seals on the windows, doors, boot lid, bonnet or
panorama sun roof*, or at the tyres, rubber ho­

ses,
insulating material, sensors* or camera
len­

ses*.
Maintain a distance of at least 40 cm.
Do not use a high-pressure cleaner to remove
snow and ice.
Never use high-pressure cleaners with a round-
jet nozzle or "dirt blasters".
The water must not be hotter than 60 °C.
Automatic car washes
Spray the vehicle with water before washing.
Ensure that the windows and panorama sun roof*
are closed and that the windscreen wipers are
switched off. Follow the car wash operator's rules
and recommendations, especially if any accesso­
ries are attached to your vehicle.
If possibLe use a brushless car wash.
Washing by hand
Clean the car with a soft sponge or brush, start­
ing on the roof and working down. Use solvent-
free cleaning agents.
Washing matt-painted vehicles by hand
To avoid damaging the paintwork when washing
the car, first remove any dust, sand and grit. In­

sects,
grease stains and fingerprints are best re­
moved using a special cleaning agent for matt-
painted surfaces.
Apply the product with a micro-fibre cloth. Do
not apply too much pressure to avoid damaging
the paintwork.
Rinse the car thoroughly with water. Then clean
the car with a neutral shampoo and a soft micro-
fibre cloth.
Rinse the car with lots of water again and then
let it dry in the air. Remove any water stains with
a chamois. •

Care of vehicle and cleaning

A.
WARNING
- Follow the rules and recommendations of
the car wash operator and do not wash the
vehicLe with the ignition switched on - risk
of accident!
- To avoid cutting yourself on sharp metal

parts,
always wear suitable protection when
cleaning the underside of the car or inside
the wheel arches.
- After the car has been washed, the full brak­
ing effect can be delayed by moisture (or in
winter by ice) on the discs and brake pads -
risk of accident! The brakes should be dried
by pressing the pedal to restore full braking
effect.
© CAUTION
- Before washing the vehicle in an automatic
car wash, please make sure to retract the
exterior mirrors to prevent damage. Always
use the electrical power controL to fold the
mirrors in/out on vehicles with electrically
retractable exterior mirrors*.
- Do not wash the vehicle in direct sunlight -
otherwise the paint can be damaged.
- Do not use insect sponges or abrasive
household sponges, etc. - they can damage
the surfaces.
- Matt-painted vehicle parts:
- Do not use polish or wax - otherwise the
paintwork can be damaged.
- Never use car-wash programmes that in­
clude wax coatings. This could spoil the
matt finish.
- Do not attach any stickers or magnet la­
bels to matt-painted parts as these could
damage the paintwork when they are re­

moved.

® For the sake of the environment
The car should only be washed in special wash

bays.
This prevents oily water from getting in­
to the public drains.
