Vehicle care183
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
■ Park the vehicle on a level, firm and
non-slippery surface. The front wheels must be in the straight-ahead position.
■ Apply the electrical parking brake 3 136 and engage first gear,
reverse gear or P.
■ Remove the spare wheel 3 185.
■ Never change more than one wheel
at a time.
■ Block wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be changed, by placing
wedge blocks or equivalent in front
and behind the wheel.
■ Use the jack only to change wheels
in case of puncture, not for
seasonal winter or summer tyre
changes.
■ Never exceed jack maximum working load (900 kg).
■ If the ground on which the vehicle is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be placed
under the jack.■ Do not raise the vehicle more than is necessary to change a wheel.
■ No people or animals may be in the
vehicle when it is jacked-up.

Exterior care Locks
The locks are lubricated at the factory using a high quality lock cylinder
grease. Use de-icing agent only when absolutely necessary, as this has adegreasing effect and impairs lockfunction. 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 car washes,
select a programme that includes waxing.
Bird droppings, dead insects, resin,
pollen and the like should be cleaned
off immediately, as they contain
aggressive constituents which can
cause paint damage.
