Cleaning wheel rims
The car should be washed as soon as it
becomes dirty. The longer the car is left dirty, the
more difficult it will be to get it completely clean
and there is a risk of scratching the paintwork.
Carry out cleaning in a cleaning area with an oil
separator, and use car shampoo.
Only use rim cleaning agent recommended by
Polestar. Contact Polestar Support for more
information.
Strong rim cleaning agents can damage the sur-
face and cause stains on chrome-plated alumi-
nium rims.

Rustproofing
The car has protection against corrosion.
Anti-corrosion protection for the body consists
of metallic protective coatings on the sheet
metal, a high-quality painting process, corro-
sion-protected and minimised metal overlap,
and shielding plastic components, abrasion pro-
tection and supplemental rust inhibitor on
exposed areas. In the chassis, exposed compo-
nents of the wheel suspension are made of cor-
rosion-resistant cast aluminium.
Inspection and maintenance
The car's anti-corrosion protection normally
requires no maintenance, but a good way to
reduce the risk of corrosion is to keep the car
clean. Strong alkaline or acidic cleaning solu-
tions must be avoided on glossy trim compo-
nents. Any stone chips should be rectified as
soon as they are discovered.
