Notes on vehicle care
Regular and expert care helps to preserve
your vehicle
→
.
The longer that soiling is
left
on the surface
of vehicle components and upholstery fab-
rics, the more
difficult
it can become to
clean and treat them. Extended exposure
may mean that it is no longer possible to
remove soiling.
WARNING
Incorrect care and cleaning of vehicle
parts can impair the safety features of the
vehicle and cause serious injury.
·
Vehicle parts must be cleaned accord-
ing to the manufacturer's instructions.
·
Always use approved or recommended
cleaning products.
·
Do not use cleaning agents that contain
solvents. Solvents can cause irrepara-
ble damage to the airbag modules.
·
Protect your hands and arms against
parts with sharp edges, e.g. when
cleaning the insides of the wheel hous-
ings.
WARNING
Dirty, misted and iced-up windows reduce
visibility. This can also impair the vehicles’
safety equipment. This leads to a risk of
accidents and serious injuries.
·
You should only drive the vehicle if you
have a clear view through all windows.
·
Do not treat the windscreen with wa-
ter-repellent window coating agents. In
unfavourable conditions, they can
cause increased dazzle.
Care products
Consult a correspondingly
qualified
work-
shop if you have any questions about care
products or if components are not listed.
Appropriate accessories are available from
a correspondingly
qualified
workshop. Fol-
low the instructions for use on the packag-
ing.
WARNING
Unsuitable care products and incorrect
use of care products can cause accidents,
serious injuries, burns or poisoning. Care
products may be toxic and hazardous.
·
Store care products only in the closed
original container.
·
Read the packaging
leaflet.
·
Keep all care products out of reach of
children.
·
Use care products only outside or in
well-ventilated rooms so that you do
not breathe in any toxic vapours.
·
Never use fuel, turpentine, engine oil,
nail varnish remover or other volatile
fluids
for vehicle care. These substan-
ces are toxic and highly
flammable.
NOTICE
Soiling with aggressive and solvent-based
ingredients can cause irreparable damage
to the vehicle equipment, even if
left
for on-
ly a short time, e.g. on seat padding or trim
parts.
·
Do not let contamination or dirt dry.
·
Have stubborn stains removed by a cor-
respondingly
qualified
workshop.
Washing the vehicle
Washing the vehicle regularly prevents ef-
fects of soiling that can damage the paint
work.
Please observe the following information
to wash your vehicle correctly and properly.
WARNING
The braking
efficiency
may be delayed
and the braking distance may be longer
after
the vehicle has been washed. The
brake discs and brake pads may be damp,
or iced up in winter. There is a risk of acci-
dents.
·
“Dry and de-ice the brakes” by perform-
ing careful braking manoeuvres.
