Safety FirstControls and equipment Tips and Maintenance Technical Data
in the washing water it is advisable to protect the paint with a coat
of hard wax at least twice a year.
K
Polishing
Should only be done if paint has lost its shine and gloss cannot be
brought back with wax. If the polish used does not contain
preservative compounds, the paint must be waxed afterwards.
N No
ot
te
e
Matt painted and plastic parts should not be treated with polish or hard
wax.K
Paint damage
Small marks in the paint such as scratchesor stone damage
should be touched up immediately with paint before the metal
starts to rust.
However, should rust be found at any time it must be removed
thoroughly and then the area treated first with an anti-corrosion
primer and then the correct paint applied.
The number of the original vehicle paint is given on the data
sticker which is inside the boot in the spare wheel housing.
K
Windows
Remove snow and ice from windows and mirrors with a plastic
scraper only. To avoid scratches due to dirt on the glass, the
scraper should only be pushed in one direction and not moved to
and fro.
Traces of rubber, oil, wax
1), grease or silicone can be removed with
a window cleaning solution or a silicone remover.
The windows should also be cleaned on the inside at regular
intervals.
Do not dry the windows with the leather used for the paintwork
because traces of paint cleaner will cause streaks to appear on the
glass, which will hinder vision.
To avoid damaging the heating element wires in the rear window
do not put stickers over the wires on the inside.
K
Door, boot and window seals
The weatherstrips will remain flexible and last longer if they are
rubbed lightly with a rubber protective compound from time to
time. This will also stop the weatherstrips from freezing on in
winter.
K
Door lock cylinder
You should only use an appropriate spray, which has lubricating
and anti-corrosive qualities, to de-ice the lock cylinder.
K
1)This wax residue can only be removed with a special cleaner. Your Technical Service
Centre will provide you with more detailed information.

181 Care and maintenance
Safety FirstControls and equipment Tips and Maintenance Technical Data
Steel wheels
The wheels and the wheel trims should be cleaned thoroughly at
regular intervals when the vehicle is being washed. This will
prevent brake dust, dirt and road salt from accumulating on the
wheel. Persistent ingrained brake dust can be removed with an
industrial grime remover. Paint damage should be repaired before
rust can form.
K
Alloy wheels*
In order to maintain the smart appearance of alloy wheels for a
long period, regular care is necessary. In particular, salt and brake
pad dust must be washed off thoroughly at least every two weeks
otherwise the surface of the alloy will be damaged. After being
washed, the wheels should be treated with an acid-free cleaner for
alloy wheels. About every three months it is necessary to give
wheels a good rubbing with hard wax. Paint polish or other
abrasive solutions must not be used. If the protective paint coat
has been damaged, e.g. by stone impact, the damaged spots
should be dealt with as soon as possible.
Cleaning and anti-corrosion treatment of engine
compartment
The leaves, blossoms etc. which drop into the water box
(underneath the engine bonnet in front of the windscreen) should
be cleaned out occasionally. This will prevent the water drain holes
from becoming blocked and – on vehicles without a dust and
pollen filter – foreign bodies entering the vehicle interior via the
heating and ventilation system.
The engine compartment and the outside surface of the power unit
are given anti-corrosion treatment at the factory.
In the winter when the vehicle is being driven frequently on salted
roads, good anti-corrosion treatment is very important. For this
reason the entire engine compartment and the plenum chamber
should be thoroughly cleaned before and after the salting period
and then preserved so that the salt cannot have a damaging effect.

General notes
• New tyres do not give maximum grip straight away and should
therefore be run in at moderate speeds and a careful style of
driving for about the first 100 km. This will help to make the tyres
last longer.

Fig. 173AL0-135

206If and when
• The tread depth of new tyres can vary due to construction and
design features, and depending on version and manufactures.
• Check tyres for damage from time to time (cuts, splits, cracks and
lumps) and remove any foreign bodies embedded in the treads.
• To avoid damage to tyres and wheels drive over curbs and similar
obstacles very slowly and as nearly at right angles as possible.
• Keep grease, oil and fuel off the tyres.
• Replace missing dust caps as soon as possible.
• Mark wheels before taking them off so that they rotate in the
same direction when put back on again.
• When taken off, the tyres should be stored in a cool, dry and
preferably dark place.
Tyres which are not on wheels should be stored in a vertical
position.N No

The inflation pressure is very important particularly at high speeds.
Therefore, the pressures should be checked at least once a
month and before every long journey.
At this opportunity do not forget the spare wheel:
• The spare wheel with normal tyre should always be inflated to
the highest pressure required on the vehicle.
• Always check the pressures when the tyres are cold. When warm,
the pressure is higher but do not reduce. If the load changes a
great deal the pressure must be altered to suit.
On vehicles with wheel hub caps, valve extensions are fitted. It is
not necessary to remove the valve extension piece in order to test
and correct the inflation pressure.

The wheels on new vehicles are balanced. However when the
vehicle is running various influences can cause the wheels to
become unbalanced and this causes steering vibration.
As imbalance also increases steering, suspension and tyre wear
the wheels should be balanced again. Furthermore a wheel should
always be rebalanced when the tyre has been repaired or when a
new tyre has been fitted.

At the bottom of the tread of the original tyres there are 1.6 mm
high “wear indicators” running across the tread
⇒fig. 174. There
are 6-8 of these indicators – according to make – evenly spaced
around the tyre circumference. Marks on the walls of the tyre (for
example the letters “TWI” or triangles) show the locations of the
wear indicators.

Renewing wheels/tyres
Wheels and tyres are important design features. The wheels and
tyres approved by us should be used. They are specially matched
to the model concerned and contribute largely to the excellent
roadholding and safe driving characteristics.

Because of the problems in disposing of old tyres and the specialised tools
and knowledge required, tyres should preferably be changed at a Technical
Service Centre.
• For safety reasons the tyres should be renewed in pairs and not
singly. The tyres with the deepest tread should always be on the
front wheels.
• You should only combine radial tyres of the same construction,
size (rolling circumference) and, as far as possible, the same tread
profile on all four wheels.
• On four wheel drive vehicles all tyres must be of the same brand.
Otherwise, the viscosity would unnecessarily increase the
proportion of the rear drive since the axes would be turning at
different speeds and this could cause damage.
•If the spare wheel has got a different use than the wheels the car
is using actually (for example, winter tyres or wide tyres), in case of
a breakdown it will only be possible to be used for a short time and
driving with special care. It will have to be replaced by the normal
wheel as soon as possible.
• Never fit used tyres whose previous history is not known.
• Knowing the tyre lettering and its meaning makes the selection
of the correct tyres easier. Radial ply tyres have the following
lettering on the sidewall:
