11.1
External care
11.1.1
Washing with a high-pressure cleaner
Before cleaning the vehicle with a high-pressure cleaner, observe the oper-
ating instructions of the high-pressure cleaner.
When cleaning with the nozzle for circular jet between the vehicle and the
cleaning nozzle, maintain a minimum distance of approx. 700 mm.
Take into consideration that the jet of water comes out of the cleaning nozzle
with pressure. The vehicle may be damaged by incorrect handling of the high-
pressure cleaner. The temperature of the water should not be above 60 °C.
Keep the jet of water in constant movement during the washing process. Do
not direct the water jet at clearances, built-in electrical parts, plugs, seals, the
refrigerator ventilation grill or the skylights. The vehicle may be damaged or
water may enter the interior.
11.1.2
Washing the motorhome
Wash the motorhome only on a washing site intended for this purpose.
Avoid full sunshine. Observe environmental measures.
Only clean external applications and synthetic parts with plenty of warm
water, dish washing liquid and soft cloth.
Wash down the vehicle with plenty of water, a clean sponge or a soft brush.
In the case of stubborn dirt add dish washing liquid to the water.
Painted exterior walls may also be cleaned with a caravan cleaner.
Add-on parts made of glass-fibre reinforced plastic (GRP) require a regular
follow-up treatment with a polisher. This way these parts will not turn yellow
and the sealing of the surface remains intact.
Do not clean the tyres with a high-pressure cleaner. The tyres might be
damaged.
Never clean the vehicle in the car wash. Water can enter the refrigerator
grills, the waste gas vents, the ventilation of the extractor hoods or the
forced ventilations. The vehicle could be damaged.
