Chrome parts


First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 106.
First clean the chrome parts with a damp cloth and then polish them with a soft,
dry cloth.
If this method does not completely clean chrome parts, use a specific chrome care
product.
CAUTION
Do not polish the chrome parts in a dusty environment - risk of surface scratches.

Decorative films


First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 106.
Wash the films with a mild soap solution and clean, warm water. Never use harsh
cleaning products or chemical solvents, as this could damage the films.
The following instructions must be followed when washing the vehicle with a
high-pressure cleaner:
›
The minimum distance between the nozzle and the vehicle body should be 50
cm.
›
Keep jet perpendicular to the film surface.
›
The maximum water temperature is 50 °C.
›
The maximum water pressure is 80 bar.
CAUTION
In the winter months, do not use an ice scraper to remove ice and snow from the
areas with films. Do not use any other objects to remove frozen layers of snow or
ice – risk of film damage.

General Maintenance
Windows and exterior mirrors

First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 106.
Use a plastic ice scraper for removing snow and ice from the windows and mir-
rors.
Regularly clean windows from the inside with clean water.
Dry the glass surfaces with a designated cloth or window leather.
When drying the windows after washing the vehicle, do not use window leathers
that have been used to polish the bodywork. Residues of preservatives in the
window leather can make the window dirty and reduce visibility.

CAUTION
The ice scraper should not be moved forward and backward but in one direction
■
to avoid any damage to the surface of the glass.
Snow or ice that is contaminated with coarse dirt such as fine gravel, sand or
■
salt must not be removed from the windows and mirrors – risk of damage to the
surface of the windows and mirrors.
Do not remove snow or ice from glass parts using warm or hot water – risk of
■
cracks forming in the glass.
When removing snow or ice from windows and mirror lenses ensure that the
■
paintwork of the vehicle is not to damage.

■
sive and acidic cleaning agents – risk of damaging the heating elements or win-
dow aerial.
