Vehicle care
When caring for your vehicle, observe all
national environmental regulations,
particularly when washing it.
Regular, thorough care helps to improve
the appearance of your vehicle and
maintain its value over the years. It is also
prerequisite for warranty claims for any
paint or corrosion damage. The following
pages contain tips for vehicle care which, if
used properly, will help combat the
unavoidable damaging effects of the
environment.

Washing
The paintwork of your vehicle is exposed to
environmental influences, e.g. continuous
changes in weather conditions, industrial
waste gases and dust or thawing salts, so
wash and wax your vehicle regularly. When
using automatic car washes, select a
program which includes waxing.
Bird droppings, dead insects, resin, pollen
and the like should be cleaned off
immediately, as they contain aggressive
constituents which can cause paint
damage.
Please follow the wash system
manufacturer’s instructions when using
wash systems. The windscreen wipers and
the automatic wiper with rain sensor
3
and
the rear window wiper
3
must be switched
off, see pages 11, 126. Unscrew the
antenna rod

and the roof rack

,
standing on the door sill to make them
easier to reach.
If you wash your vehicle by hand, make
sure that the insides of the wings are also
thoroughly rinsed out.
