Care
167
!
It is preferable that you use car washes
that do not use high-pressure cleaning.
With car washes that use high water pres-
sures, there is a danger that water may leak
into the vehicle.
!
Do not use a touch-free automatic car
wash that uses chemical agents to wash
the vehicle.
If the vehicle is very dirty, prewash it before
cleaning it in an automatic car wash.
Vehicles with DAB radio only
25 :
X
Remove the radio/telephone aerial.
!
If you do not remove the radio/telephone
aerial, the aerial or the vehicle may be dam-
aged by the automatic car wash.
!
Make sure that the automatic car wash is
suitable for the size of the vehicle. Fold in
the exterior mirrors before the vehicle is
washed. There is otherwise a risk of dam-
age to the exterior mirrors.
!
Make sure the side windows are com-
pletely closed, the ventilation/heater
blower is fully turned off and the wind-
screen wiper switch is set to 0. The rain
sensor may otherwise be activated, for
instance, leading to inadvertent wiper
sweeps being triggered. This could cause
damage to the vehicle.
After using an automatic car wash, wipe off
wax from the windscreen and the wiper
blades. This will prevent smears and reduce
wiping noises caused by residue on the wind-
screen.
High-pressure cleaners
G
Risk of accident
Do not use high-pressure cleaners with cir-
cular-jet nozzles (dirt grinders) to clean
your vehicle or - especially - the tyres. You
could otherwise damage the tyres and
cause an accident.
!
Observe the instructions issued by the
equipment manufacturer concerning the
distance to be maintained between the
nozzle of the high-pressure cleaner and the
vehicle (at least 30 cm).
Move the high-pressure cleaner nozzle
around when cleaning your vehicle.
Do not aim directly at any of the following:

Tyres

can lead to failures or leaks.
Cleaning the wiper blades and the out-
side of the windscreen
G Risk of injury
Turn the key to position 0 in the ignition
lock before cleaning the windscreen or the
wiper blades. There is otherwise a risk of
the windscreen wipers being set in motion
and causing injury.
