ferences may occur between the surfaces that

Notes on care of car parts
& WARNING Risk of entrapment if the
windscreen wipers are switched on while
the windscreen is being cleaned
If the windscreen wipers are set in motion
while you are cleaning the windscreen or
wiper blades, you can be trapped by the
wiper arm.
Always switch off the windscreen wip‐
#
ers and the ignition before cleaning the
windscreen or wiper blades.
& WARNING Risk of burns from the tail‐
pipe and tailpipe trims
The exhaust tailpipe and tailpipe trims can
become very hot. If you come into contact
with these parts of the vehicle, you could
burn yourself.
Always be particularly careful around
#
the tailpipe and the tailpipe trims and
supervise children especially closely in
this area.
Allow vehicle parts to cool down before
#
touching them.
