262 Self-help, vehicle care
Plastic and rubber parts
For additional cleaning of plastic and
rubber parts use Cleaner. Do not use any
other agent, and in particular do not use
solvents or petrol.
Do not use high-pressure jet cleaners.
Wheels and tyres
Do not use high-pressure jet cleaners.
Interior and upholstery
Clean the vehicle interior, including the
instrument panel fascia, using interior
cleaner.
The instrument panel should only be
cleaned using a soft damp cloth.
Clean fabric upholstery with a vacuum
cleaner and brush. To remove stains, use
cleaner that is suitable for both fabrics and
vinyl.
Do not use cleaning agents such as
acetone, tetrachloride, paint thinner, paint
remover, nail varnish remover, washing
powder or bleach. Benzine is also
unsuitable. Open velcro fasteners on
clothing could damage seat upholstery.
Make sure that velcro fasteners are closed.
Seat belts
Always keep seat belts clean and dry.
Clean only with lukewarm water or Cleaner.
Windows
When cleaning the heated rear window,
make sure that the heating element on the
inside of the window is not damaged.
Use a soft lint-free cloth or chamois leather
in conjunction with Window Cleaner and
Insect Remover.
Cleaning solvent and antifreeze is suitable
for de-icing windows.
For mechanical removal of ice, use a
commercially available sharp-edged ice
scraper. Press the scraper firmly against
the glass so that no dirt can get under it
and scratch the glass.
Windscreen wiper blades
Wax, such as that used in car washes, can
cause streaking on the windscreen when
the wipers are used.
Smearing wiper blades can be cleaned with
a soft cloth and Vauxhall Windscreen
Wash Solvent, and replaced if necessary –
see page 273.
Locks
The locks are lubricated with a high-quality
locking cylinder grease in the factory. Only
use de-icer in urgent cases, since it has a
de-greasing effect and affects the
operation of the locks. Have the locks re-
greased in a workshop after using de-icer.
Engine compartment
Areas of the engine compartment that are
painted in the same colour as the vehicle
must be looked after like any other painted
surface.
It is advisable to wash the engine
compartment before and after winter and
preserve it with wax. Cover alternator and
brake fluid reservoir with plastic sheets
before washing the engine.
