MAINTENANCE

Ventilation slots

The ventilation slots in front of the wind-
screen should be brushed clear after a
heavy snowfall so that the operation of the
heating and ventilation systems will not be
impaired.

Weatherstripping

L05A003a
To prevent freezing of the weatherstripping
on the doors, bonnet, etc., they should be
treated with silicone grease.
Additional equipment
(For regions where snow is
encountered)
It is a good idea to carry a shovel or a
short-handled spade in the vehicle during
the winter so that you can clear away snow
if you get stranded. A small hand-brush for
sweeping snow off the vehicle and a plastic
scraper for the windscreen, side and rear
window are also useful.
