•
Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheel
housings, fenders, etc).
•
In areas of high industrial fallout, more fre-
quent washing is recommended.
CAUTION
•
During high pressure washing, the spray
mouthpiece must never be closer to the
vehicle than 13" (30 cm). Do not spray
into the locks.
•
Dirt, snow, etc., on the headlights can
reduce lighting capacity considerably.
Clean the headlights regularly, for exam-
ple when refueling.
Special laminated panoramic roof cau-
tions:
•
Always close the laminated panoramic
roof and sun shade before washing your
vehicle.
•
Never use abrasive cleaning agents on
the laminated panoramic roof.
•
Never use wax on the rubber seals
around the laminated panoramic roof.
NOTE
When washing the car, remember to remove
dirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills.
Automatic car washes
•
We do NOT recommend washing your car in
an automatic wash during the first few
months (because the paint will not have
hardened sufficiently).
•
An automatic wash is a simple and quick way
to clean your car, but it is worth remembering
that it may not be as thorough as when you
yourself go over the car with sponge and
water. Keeping the underbody clean is most
important, especially in the winter. Some
automatic washers do not have facilities for
washing the underbody.
NOTE
Condensation may form temporarily on the
inside of the lenses of exterior lights such as
headlights, fog lights, or taillights. This is nor-
mal and the lights are designed to withstand
moisture. Normally, condensation will dissi-
pate after the lights have been on for a short
time.
CAUTION
When using an automatic car wash in which
the vehicle has to be able to roll freely, the
auto-hold brake function must be deactivated.
If this is not done, the brakes will automati-
cally be applied when the vehicle is stationary.
To deactivate this function:
1. Drive the vehicle into the car wash
2. Put the gear selector in
N
3. Switch off the ignition
The vehicle will then be able to roll freely.
CAUTION
•
Before driving into an automatic car
wash, turn off the optional rain sensor to
avoid damaging the windshield wipers.
•
Make sure that side view mirrors, auxiliary
lamps, etc, are secure, and that any
antenna(s) are retracted or removed. Oth-
erwise there is risk of the machine dis-
lodging them.
•
Chromed wheels:
Clean chrome-plated
wheels using the same detergents used
for the body of the vehicle. Aggressive
wheel-cleaning agents can permanently
stain chrome-plated wheels.
