10-62 Vehicle Care
Polishing is necessary only if the
paint has become dull or if solid
deposits have become attached
to it.
Paintwork polish with silicone forms
a protective film, making waxing
unnecessary.
Plastic body parts must not be
treated with wax or polishing
agents.
Windows and windscreen
wiper blades
Use a soft lint-free cloth or chamois
leather together with window
cleaner and insect remover.
When cleaning the rear window,
make sure the heating element
inside is not damaged.
For mechanical removal of ice, use
a sharp-edged ice scraper. Press
the scraper firmly against the glass
so that no dirt can get under it and
scratch the glass.
Clean smearing wiper blades with a
soft cloth and window cleaner.
Wheels and tyres
Do not use high-pressure jet
cleaners.
Clean rims with a pH-neutral wheel
cleaner.
Rims are painted and can be
treated with the same agents as
the body.
Paintwork damage
Rectify minor paintwork damage
with a touch-up pen before rust
forms. Have more extensive
damage or rust areas repaired by a
repairer.
Underbody
Corrosive materials used for ice and
snow removal or dust control can
collect on the underbody of your
vehicle. Failure to remove these
materials can accelerate corrosion
and rust.
Periodically use plain water to flush
these materials from the underbody
of your vehicle.
Black plate (62,1)
Take care to clean any areas in
which mud and other debris can
collect. Loosen any sediment
packed in closed area before
flushing with water.

stains with an upholstery cleaner.
Clean seat belts with lukewarm
water or interior cleaner.
