Power washers
WARNING
Do not use power washers with circular-jet
nozzles (dirt grinders) to clean your vehicle, in
particular the tires. You could otherwise
damage the tires and cause an accident.
Always maintain a distance of at least
11.8 in (30 cm) between the vehicle and the
power washer nozzle. Information about
the correct distance is available from the
equipment manufacturer.
Move the power washer nozzle around
when cleaning your vehicle.
Do not aim directly at any of the following:
• tires
• door gaps, roof gaps, joints etc.
• electrical components
• battery
• connectors
• lights
• seals
• trim elements
• ventilation slots
Damaged seals or electrical components
can lead to leaks or failures.
