Light-alloy wheels
When cleaning the vehicle, use only neutral rim
cleaners having a pH value from 5 to 9. Do not
use abrasive cleaning agents or steam clean-
ers above 140 ℉/60 ℃. Follow the manufac-
turer's instructions.
Aggressive, acidic or alkaline cleaning agents
can destroy the protective coating of adjacent
components such as the brake disk.
After cleaning, apply the brakes shortly to dry
them. The heat generated while braking dries
brake disks and brake pads and protects them
against corrosion.
Chrome surfaces
Carefully clean Chrome surfaces, especially in
case of exposure to road salt, with plenty of
water and added auto shampoo as needed.
Rubber components
Environmental influences can cause surface
contamination of rubber parts and a loss of
gloss. Use only water and suitable cleaning
agents for cleaning.
Treat especially worn rubber parts with rubber
care products at regular intervals. When clean-
ing rubber seals, do not use any silicon-con-
taining vehicle care products in order to avoid
damage or noises.
Wiper blades
The wiper blades are cleaned by using the
washer system.
