Information on using a high-pressure cleaner
& WARNING Risk of an accident when
using high-pressure cleaners with circu‐
lar jet nozzles
The water jet of a circular jet nozzle (dirt
grinder) can cause externally invisible dam‐
age to the tyres or chassis parts.
Components damaged in this way may unex‐
pectedly fail.
#
Do not use high-pressure cleaners with
circular jet nozzles to clean the vehicle.
#
Have damaged tyres or chassis parts
replaced immediately.
To avoid damage to your vehicle, observe the fol‐
lowing when using a high-pressure cleaner:
R
maintain a distance of at least 30 cm to the
vehicle.
R
vehicles with decorative foil: parts of your
vehicle are covered with a decorative foil.
Maintain a distance of at least 70 cm
between the foil-covered parts of the vehicle
and the nozzle of the high-pressure cleaner.
Move the high-pressure cleaner nozzle
around whilst cleaning.
R
observe the information on the correct dis‐
tance in the equipment manufacturer's oper‐
ating instructions.
R
do not point the nozzle of the high-pressure
cleaner directly at sensitive parts such as
tyres, slits, electrical components, batteries,
light bulbs and ventilation slots.
Washing the vehicle by hand
*
NOTE Stepping on the wheel arch flares
and bumpers may damage them
If you use the wheel arch flares and bumpers
as a step, they may be damaged or detach
from the vehicle.
#
Only use the two marked steps on the
rear bumper as a climbing aid.
Requirements:
R
observe the legal requirements, e.g. in a
number of countries, washing by hand is only
permitted in specially designated wash bays.
#
Use a mild cleaning agent, e.g. car shampoo.
#
Wash the vehicle with lukewarm water using
a soft car sponge. When doing so, do not
expose the vehicle to direct sunlight.
#
Carefully hose the vehicle off with water and
dry using a chamois. Take care not to point
the water jet directly towards the air inlet
grille.
