Regular washing and care help maintain the value of your vehicle.
Regular care
Regular and expert care helps to maintain the value of the vehicle. This may also be one of the requirements for acknowledging warranty claims in the event of corrosion or paint defects. The best way to protect the car against environmental contaminants is to wash and wax it frequently. The longer substances such as insects, bird droppings, resinous tree sap, road dirt, industrial deposits, tar, soot or road salt and other aggressive materials remain on the vehicle, the more damage they do to the paintwork. High temperatures (for instance in strong sunlight) further intensify the corrosive effect. After the period when salt is put on the roads it is important to have the underside of the vehicle washed thoroughly.
Car care products
Car care products are available from your Authorised Service Centre. Keep the product instructions until you have used up the product.
WARNING
• Car care products can be toxic. For this, they must always be kept closed in their original container. Keep out of children's reach. Failure to comply could result in poisoning.

your vehicle. The use of certain products may produce noxious vapours; these should be used in well ventilated areas.
