Cleaning plastic parts
Use a sponge or chamois leather.
If a car wax adheres on a grey or black rough surface of the bumper, moulding or lamps, the surface becomes white. In such a case, wipe it off using lukewarm water and soft cloth or chamois leather.
Caution
► Do not use a scrubbing brush or other hard tools as they may damage the
plastic part surface.
► Do not use wax containing compound (polishing powder) which may damage the plastic
part surface.
► Do not bring the plastic parts into contact with petrol, light oil, brake fluids,
engine oils, greases, paint thinners, and sulphuric acid (battery electrolyte) which
may crack, stain or discolour the plastic parts.
If they touch the plastic parts, wipe them off with soft cloth, chamois or the like
and an aqueous solution of neutral detergent then immediately rinse the affected
parts with water.
