Caring for your vehicle

Waxing your vehicle

Protect the finish using only carnauba

or synthetic-based waxes.

The best way to determine when the

finish needs to be waxed is by noting

when water stops beading on the

surface.

You can use a glass cleaner to remove

any wax or silicone that may have been

left on the windows during waxing.

Use the cleaning and car-care

products available at your BMW

center.<

Paint damage

You can touch up small areas of paint

damage with a BMW spray paint or a

BMW touchup stick.

The paint color code for your vehicle is

provided on a sticker located on the

right hand side under the hood and on

the first page of your Service and War-

ranty Information Booklet (US models)

or Warranty and Service Guide (Cana-

dian models).

Damage caused by flying stones,

scratches, etc., must be touched up

without delay to prevent rust from

forming.

If corrosion has started to form in an

area with paint damage, remove all rust

and clean the area. Then prime the area

with a BMW Primer Stick. Finally, apply

the finish coat. Wait a few days, then

polish the repaired area. Finish by ap-

plying a wax preservative.

More extensive paint damage should

be repaired professionally in accor-

dance with the manufacturer's instruc-

tions. Your BMW center uses original

BMW finish materials in accordance

with approved repair procedures.

Caring for other vehicle

components and materials

Light-alloy wheels should be treated

with alloy wheel cleaner, especially dur-

ing the winter months. However, do not

use aggressive products containing ac-

ids, strong alkalis or abrasives. Do not

use steam cleaners operating at tem-

peratures above 140 7 (+60 6). Fol-

low the manufacturer's instructions.

If your vehicle has chrome parts

*, such

as the window frames and door han-

dles, clean these parts carefully with

ample clean water and a shampoo sup-

plement if desired, especially if they

have an accumulation of road salt.

Use a chrome polish for an additional

treatment.

You can use window and glass cleaner

to clean inside window surfaces and

mirrors without smearing and streaking.

Never use polishing pastes or abrasive

(quartz) cleansers on mirror lenses.
