Cleaning and care of the vehicle
While in operation, even while parked, your
vehicle is subjected to varying external in-
fluences which, if gone unchecked, can at-
tack the paintwork as well as the vehicle
underbody and cause lasting damage.
Frequent washing reduces and/or elimi-
nates the aggressiveness and potency of
the above adverse influences.
Regular and proper care will help to main-
tain the value of your vehicle. The best way
to protect your vehicle from harmful envi-
ronmental influences is to wash it and use
protective treatments regularly.
More frequent washings are necessary to
deal with unfavorable conditions:

extreme and varying climatic conditions,

followed by a thorough inspection. Dam-
aged areas need to be re-undercoated.
Never use fluids or solvents that are not de-
signed for cleaning your vehicle.
