When washing or rinsing the vehicle in cold weather, do not let water get into the lock cylinders
or point the hose at gaps around the doors, hood, or trunk lid. The water could freeze on the
locks and seals and make it difficult to open the vehicle!
When outside temperatures are low, wipe the rubber seals and their contact surfaces dry to
help prevent freezing.
In order for any sensors on the outside of the vehicle to work correctly, they must be kept
clean and clear of snow and ice.
When using a power washer or steam cleaner, only spray the sensors directly for a short pe‐
riod of time and always keep the nozzle at least 4inches (10cm) from the sensor.
Do not clean icy or snow-covered windows with a power washer.
NOTE
To help prevent vehicle damage in a car wash:
Compare the vehicle track width with the dimensions of the guide rails in the car wash to help
prevent damage to wheel rims and tires!
Switch off the rain sensor before driving the vehicle through a car wash ⇒Rain sensor .
Make sure there is enough clearance for the height and width of the vehicle.
To help prevent paint damage to the engine hood, place wiper blades against the windshield
after they have dried. Do not let them snap back into place.
Fold the outside mirrors toward the vehicle body. For vehicles equipped with electrically folding
outside mirrors, do not fold the mirrors manually!
Lock the trunk lid to help prevent unintentional opening in the car wash.
Wash the vehicle only at specifically designated wash locations to help prevent water contami‐
nated with oil, grease and fuel from entering the storm drain sewer system. In some areas it is
against the law to wash motor vehicles anywhere than other than at specified designated car
washing locations.
