High-pressure cleaner

WARNING
The water jet of circular-jet nozzles (dirt grind-
ers) can cause damage not visible from the
outside to tyres or chassis components. Com-
ponents damaged in this way can unexpect-
edly fail. There is a risk of an accident.
Do not use high-pressure cleaners with circu-
lar-jet nozzles to clean the vehicle. Have dam-
aged tyres or chassis components replaced
immediately.
!
Always maintain a distance of at least 30 cm
between the vehicle and the high-pressure
cleaner nozzle. Information about the correct
distance is available from the equipment
manufacturer.
Move the high-pressure cleaner nozzle
around whilst cleaning.
Do not aim directly at any of the following:
R
Tyres
R
Door gaps, joints etc.
R
Soft top
R
Wind deflector net
R
Electrical components
R

Cleaning the paintwork
!
Do not affix:
R
stickers
R
films
R
magnetic plates or similar items
to painted surfaces. You could otherwise
damage the paintwork.
Scratches, corrosive deposits, areas affected by
corrosion and damage caused by inadequate
care cannot always be completely repaired. In
such cases, visit a qualified specialist workshop.
X
Remove impurities immediately, where pos-
sible, whilst avoiding rubbing too hard.
X
Soak insect remains with insect remover and
rinse off the treated areas afterwards.
X
Soak bird droppings with water and rinse off
the treated areas afterwards.
X
Remove coolant, brake fluid, tree resins, oils,
fuels and greases by rubbing gently with a
cloth soaked in petroleum ether or lighter
fluid.
X
Use tar remover to remove tar stains.
X
Use silicone remover to remove wax.
Care and treatment of matt paintwork
!
Never polish the vehicle or the light alloy
wheels. Polishing makes the paintwork shiny.
!
The following may cause the paint to
become shiny and thus reduce the matt
effect:
R
vigorous rubbing with unsuitable materials
R
frequent use of car washes
R
washing the vehicle in direct sunlight
!
Never use paint cleaner, buffing or polishing
products, or gloss preserver, e.g. wax, for the
purpose of paintwork care. These products
are only suitable for high-gloss surfaces. Their
use on vehicles with matt paintwork leads to
considerable surface damage or, more spe-
cifically, to shiny, spotted areas.
Always have paintwork repairs carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop.
