12.1 External care
12.1.1 Washing with a high-pressure cleaner
Before cleaning the vehicle with a high-pressure cleaner, observe the opera-
ting 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, ven-
tilation grills or skylights. The vehicle may be damaged or water may enter the
interior.
12.1.2 Washing the vehicle

Wash the vehicle 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.

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.

Treat rubber seals of doors and storage flaps with talc.

Treat locking cylinder of doors and storage flaps with graphite dust.

Do not clean the tyres with a high-pressure cleaner. The tyres might be
damaged.

Do not spray external applications (deco-films) directly with the high-pres-
sure cleaner. The external applications could come off.

Never have the vehicle cleaned in a car wash. Water can penetrate in the
refrigerator grills, the waste gas vents, the ventilations of the extractor
hoods or in the forced ventilations. The vehicle could be damaged.

Whenever the paintwork of the motorhome is soiled for example with sea
salt, road salt, insects, tar, bird droppings and other aggressive subs-
tances, clean the paintwork immediately.

The motorhome should be cleaned regularly with water near the seaside
and in winter (road salt).

Stepping on the roof of the motorhome is not permitted.
