Care and cl eaning
wash operator to reduce the risk of acci­
dents.
- To reduce the risk of cuts, protect yourself
from sharp metal components when was h­
ing the underbody or the inside of the wheel
housings .
- After washing the vehicle, the braking effect may be delayed due to mo isture on the
brake rotors or ice in the winter . This in­
creases the risk of an acc ident . The brakes
must be d ried first w it h a few careful b rake
applications.
@ Note
- If you wash the ve hicle in an automatic car
wash, you must fold the exterior m irrors in
to reduce the risk of damage to the mirrors .
P ower folding exte rior m irrors* must o nly
be fo lded in and out using the powe r folding
f u nct io n.
- To reduce t he risk of damage to the rims
and t ires , compare the width be tween the
whee ls on your ve hicl e w it h t he distance be ­
tween the g uide rai ls in the car wash .
- To reduce t he risk of damage, compare the
height and width o f you r vehicle with the heig
ht and w idth of the inside o f the car
was h.
- T o red uce the risk of pa in t damage, do not
was h the vehicle in direct sun light .
- T o red uce the risk of d amage to the s urf ace,
do not use insect removing sponges, k itchen
sponges or similar items .
- Matte finish painted vehicle components:
- To reduce the r isk of damage to the sur-
face, do not use polis hing agents or hard
wax .
- Never use protective wax. It can destroy
the matte finish effect .
- Do not place any stickers or magnet ic
signs on vehicle parts painted with matte
finish paint . The paint cou ld be damaged
when the stickers or magnets are re­
moved .
@ For the sake of the environment
Only wash the ve hicle in facilities spec ia lly de­
