Care
and
cleaning
General
information
Regular,
proper
care
helps
to
maintain
your
vehi-
cles
value.
It
can
also
be
a
requirement
when
submitting
warranty
claims
for
corrosion
damage
and
paint
defects
on
the
body.
The
required
cleaning
and
care
products
can
be
obtained
from
an
authorized
Audi
dealer
or
au-
thorized
Service
Facility.
Read
and
follow
the
in-
structions
for
use
on
the
packaging.

Using
cleaning
and
care

dangerous
to

Always
store

care
products
out
of

Car
washes
The
longer
that
deposits
such
as
insects,
bird
droppings,
tree
sap
or
road
salt
remain
on
the
ve-
hicle,
the
more
the
surface
can
be
damaged.
High
temperatures
such
as
those
caused
by
sunlight
increase
the
damaging
effect.
Before
washing,
rinse
off
heavy
deposits
with
plenty
of
water.
Stubborn
deposits
such
as
bird
droppings
or
tree
sap
are
best
removed
with
plenty
of
water
and
a
microfiber
cloth.
Also,
wash
the
underside
of
your
vehicle
once
road
salt
stops being
used
for
the
season.
Pressure
washers
When
washing
your
vehicle
with
a
pressure
wash-
er,
always
follow
the
operating
instructions
pro-
vided
with
the
pressure
washer.
This
is
especially
important
in
regard
to
the
pressure
and
spraying
distance.
Do not
aim
the
spray
directly
at
the
256
seals
on
the
side
windows,
doors,
lids
or
the
sun-
roof*
or at
tires,
rubber
hoses,
insulating
materi-
al,
sensors*
or
camera
lenses*.
Maintain
a
dis-
tance
of
at
least 16
inches
(40 cm).
Do not
direct
the
washer
stream
toward
the
wall
mount
clip*.
Do
not
remove
snow
and
ice
with
a
pressure
washer.
Never
use
cone
nozzles
or
high
pressure
nozzles.
The
water
temperature
must
not
be
above
140
°F
(60°C).
