Regular care promotes driving
safety and preserves your vehicle's
value. Environmental effects in
areas with high air pollution or natu-
ral contaminants, for example tree
resin or pollen, may have an effect
on the vehicle paintwork. Base the
frequency and extent of vehicle
care on such factors.
Immediately remove aggressive
substances, for example spilled
fuel, oil, grease or bird droppings so
as to prevent damage and discol-
ouration of the paintwork.
