Caring for the exterior of your
vehicle
Station wagon
Automatic car wash
You can clean the vehicle in an automatic
car wash from the very start. It is prefera-
ble to use automatic car washes that do
not have brushes.
If the vehicle is very dirty, prewash it be-
fore you drive into the car wash.
After using an automatic car wash, wipe off
wax from the windscreen and the wiper
blades. This will prevent smears on the
windscreen.
!
Fold in the exterior mirrors before us-
ing an automatic car wash.
i
Make sure that exterior mirrors are ful-
ly folded out when you leave the auto-
matic car wash. They could otherwise
vibrate.
High-pressure cleaners
!
Do not use high-pressure cleaners with
round-spray jets for cleaning the tyres.
You could otherwise damage the tyres.
Replace damaged tyres.
Nur fuer internen Gebrauch
The minimum distance between the high-
pressure jet and the object to be cleaned
must be approximately 30 cm.
Move the high-pressure cleaner nozzle
around when cleaning your vehicle. Do not
direct it at door joints, air spring bellows,
electrical components, connectors or
seals.
