Cleaning / care
Inspection, care and maintenance 211
Aluminium
Aluminium components / profiles with an
anodised coating offer optimal protection
against corrosion.
Anodised aluminium surfaces are hard /
smooth and can easily be cleaned with
cleaning agents.
In order to remove severe dirt
contamination and to retain the gloss of
the aluminium, use an aluminium and
tarpaulin cleaner.
Surface scratches are not a fault and do
not lead to rust formation, as aluminium
is resistant against corrosion.

Clean the aluminium surfaces with
water and neutral cleaning agents.

Let the surfaces dry out well.
Rubber parts / seals
Rubber parts such as elastic rubber
hoses, seals, sealing joints made of PU
adhesive / sealing material, e.g. doors,
lids, flaps, vent windows, cargo bed, etc.
are subject to a certain ageing / wearing
process during use.
Mechanical strain and environmental
effects (cold, warmth, UV radiation,
wetness) make the rubber / seal hard
over time. It may shrink and develop
cracks.

Check the state, completeness and
adherence of the seals during
cleaning work.

Have damaged, missing or porous
rubber components replaced.

Regularly maintain the rubber
components (in winter) by using
talcum, petroleum jelly or silicone
spray.
