Cleaning windows
Regularly clean windows from the inside with clean water.
Dry the glass surfaces with a clean chamois leather or a cloth intended for this
purpose.
CAUTION
Instructions for removing snow and ice
The ice scraper should not be moved forward and backward but in one direc-
■
tion 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 – there is a 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.

Information for cleaning windows
Do not clean the inside of the windows with sharp-edged objects or corro-
■
sive and acidic cleaning agents – there is a risk of damaging the heating ele-
ments or window aerial.
When drying the windows after washing the vehicle, do not use window
■
leathers that have been used to polish the bodywork. Residues of preserva-
tives in the window leather can make the window dirty and reduce visibility.

Clean plastic front headlight lenses using clean, warm water and soap.
CAUTION
The headlights are never to be wiped dry - there is a risk of damaging the
■
protective lacquer and the headlight glass subsequently developing cracks.
