Pretrip inspection and maintenance
•
When the vehicle is washed, braking perfor-
mance can be reduced if water enters the brake
drums or splashes over the brake discs. If this
happens, drive slowly and put light pressure on
the brake pedal. This will dry out the brakes.
CAUTION
ABS electric wiring is located behind the
wheels. When removing snow or ice that has
adhered to the wheel areas, be careful not to
damage the ABS components and wiring. Also,
avoid exposing the ABS components and wiring
to high-pressure water or steam cleaners. This
could cause the ABS system to malfunction.
1.3
Waxing
Wax the vehicle whenever the wax on the vehicle
ceases to repel water.
Before applying wax, move the vehicle out of direct
sunlight. Do not apply wax when the paint work is
warm to the touch.
1.4
Dirt caked on paint work
Wash off the following contaminants: calcium chlo-
ride and other salts, road chemicals, oil, tar, tree
sap, bird droppings, and industrial soot. They can
corrode, discolor, or stain the vehicle finish.
If you find them hard to remove, use a synthetic
cleaner that does not scratch or otherwise damage
painted surfaces.
1.5
Small chips and scratches
Fix small chips, cracks, and scratches in the finish
as soon as possible, particularly when body metal is
exposed. Do not wait for corrosion to set in. Your
Sterling dealer can supply touch-up paint for small
chips and scratches.
2 Interior cleaning
CAUTION
Do not clean the interior by splashing water on
it. This could damage the electrical system.
•
Remove dirt as soon as possible, before it
leaves a permanent mark or stain.
•
Clean the interior of the vehicle with a sponge or
soft cloth. Remove stubborn dirt with a soft
brush.
•
Do not clean plastic parts with thinner or gaso-
line. This could result in cracking or discolora-
tion.
•
Remove the floor mat before washing the floor.
Otherwise, the floor could rust and components
of the electrical system could be damaged.
•
If water collects in the cab, either remove the
drain plug from the floor and allow the water to
drain out or wipe up all the water using a cloth.
