Cleaning & vehicle care
Steam cleaning
Before steam cleaning the engine
Polishing
Occasionally treat the paint surface with an
approved polish containing the following
properties:
compartment, cover the power steering
reservoir to prevent contamination of fluid.
After steam cleaning carefully re-wax the
metallic components, especially the steering
column, engine coolant pipes, hose clips and
the ignition coil clamp, to prevent corrosion.
•
Very mild abrasives to remove surface
contamination without removing or
damaging the paint.
•
•
Filling compounds that will fill scratches and
reduce their visibility.
Removing tar spots
Wax to provide a protective coating between
the paint and the elements.
Use white spirit to remove tar spots and
stubborn grease stains from paintwork. Then
wash immediately with soapy water to remove
all traces of spirit.
NOTE: DO NOT apply car polish to the bumper
mouldings - polish will become ingrained in the
textured finished.
Body protection
After washing, inspect the paintwork for
damage. Any stone chips, fractures or deep
scratches in the bodywork should be repaired
promptly. Bare metal will corrode quickly and
can develop into major repair expense. Some
exterior panels of your vehicle are made of
aluminium which will not corrode in the same
manner as steel. However, any damage should
still receive prompt attention. Minor chips and
scratches can be repaired with touch-up
materials available from your dealer. Larger
areas of damage need to be corrected to
professional standards immediately.
Glass and mirrors
Clean the rear window with a soft cloth to avoid
damaging the heating elements. DO NOT
scrape the glass or use an abrasive cleaning
fluid.
Mirror glass is particularly susceptible to
damage. Wash with soapy water. DO NOT use
abrasive cleaning compounds or metal
scrapers to remove ice.
