CLEANING THE EXTERIOR

Note:

If you use a car wash with a waxing

cycle, make sure that you remove the wax
from the windshield and the wiper blades.

Note:

Prior to using a car wash facility

check the suitability of it for your vehicle.

Note:

Some car washes use water at high

pressure. Due to this, water droplets may
enter inside your vehicle and could also
damage certain parts of your vehicle.

Note:

Remove the aerial before using an

automatic car wash.

Note:

Switch the heater blower off to

prevent contamination of the fresh air filter.

We recommend that you wash your vehicle
with a sponge and lukewarm water
containing a car shampoo.

Cleaning the Headlamps

Note:

Do not scrape the headlamp lenses

or use abrasives, alcoholic solvents or
chemical solvents to clean them.

Note:

Do not wipe the headlamps when

they are dry.

Cleaning the Rear Window

Note:

Do not scrape the inside of the rear

window or use abrasives or chemical
solvents to clean it.

Use a clean, lint free cloth or a damp
chamois leather to clean the inside of the
rear window.

Cleaning the Chrome Trim

Note:

Do not use abrasives or chemical

solvents. Use soapy water.

Note:

Do not apply cleaning product to hot

surfaces and do not leave cleaning product
on chrome surfaces for a period of time
exceeding that which is recommended.

Note:

Industrial-strength (heavy-duty)

cleaners, or cleaning chemicals, may cause
damage over a period of time.

Body Paintwork Preservation

WARNINGS

Do not polish your vehicle in strong
sunshine.
