Automatic car washes
Notes
Note the following:
▷ Give preference to cloth car washes or those that use soft brushes in order to avoid paint damage.
▷ Make sure that the wheels and tires are not damaged by the transport mechanisms.
▷ Fold in the exterior mirrors; otherwise, they may be damaged, depending on the width of the vehicle.
▷ Deactivate the rain sensor, to avoid unintentional wiper activation.
▷ In some cases, an unintentional alarm can be triggered by the interior motion sensor of the alarm system. Follow the instructions on avoiding an unintentional alarm.
