Vehicle care2419Warning
Avoid contact of the battery with
eyes, skin, fabrics and painted
surfaces. The fluid contains
sulphuric acid which can cause
injuries and damage in the event
of direct contact.
9 Warning
Never jump start another vehicle

This could cause a fuse to
overload in the vehicle.

can already freeze at a
temperature of 0 °C. Defrost the
frozen 12 V vehicle battery
before connecting jump leads.
● Wear eye protection and protective clothing when
handling a 12 V vehicle battery.
● Use a booster vehicle battery with the same voltage (12 V). Its
capacity (Ah) must not be much
less than that of the discharged
12 V vehicle battery.
● Use jump leads with insulated terminals and a cross section of
at least 16 mm 2
.
● Do not disconnect the discharged
12 V vehicle battery from the
vehicle.
● Switch off all unnecessary electrical consumers.
● Do not lean over the 12 V vehicle
battery during jump starting.
● Do not allow the terminals of one
lead to touch those of the other
lead.

244Vehicle careAppearance careExterior care
Locks The locks are lubricated at the factoryusing a high quality lock cylinder
grease. Use de-icing agent only when
absolutely necessary, as this has a
degreasing effect and impairs lock function. After using a de-icing agent, have the locks regreased by a
workshop.
Washing The paintwork of your vehicle is
exposed to environmental influences. Wash and wax your vehicle regularly.
When using automatic vehicle
washes, select a programme that
includes waxing.
Do not apply waxes or polishes to uncoated plastic, vinyl, rubber,
decals, simulated wood, or flat paint
as damage can occur.Bird droppings, dead insects, resin,
pollen and the like should be cleaned
off immediately, as they contain
aggressive constituents which can cause paint damage.
If using a vehicle wash, comply with
the vehicle wash manufacturer's instructions. The windscreen wiperand rear window wiper must be
switched off. Remove external
accessories such as roof racks etc.
If you wash your vehicle by hand,
make sure that the insides of the
wheel housings are also thoroughly
rinsed out.
Clean edges and folds on opened
doors and the bonnet as well as the
areas they cover.
Clean bright metal mouldings with a
cleaning solution approved for
aluminium to avoid damages.Caution
Always use a cleaning agent with
a pH value of four to nine.
Do not use cleaning agents on hot surfaces.
Do not clean the engine compartmentwith a steam-jet or high-pressure jet
cleaner.
Thoroughly rinse and leather-off the vehicle. Rinse leather frequently. Use
separate leathers for painted and
glass surfaces: remnants of wax on
the windows will impair vision.
Have the door hinges of all doors
greased by a workshop.
Do not use hard objects to remove
spots of tar. Use tar removal spray on
painted surfaces.
Exterior lights
Headlight and other light covers are
made of plastic. Do not use any
abrasive or caustic agents, do not use an ice scraper, and do not clean them
dry.
Polishing and waxing
Wax the vehicle regularly (at the
latest when water no longer beads).
Otherwise, the paintwork will dry out.
Polishing is necessary only if the paint
has become dull or if solid deposits
have become attached to it.
