291Self-help, vehicle care
Plastic and rubber parts
For additional cleaning of plastic and
rubber parts use Cleaner. Do not use any
other agent, and in particular do not use
solvents or petrol.
Do not use high-pressure jet cleaners.
Wheels and tyres
Do not use high-pressure jet cleaners.
Interior and upholstery
Clean the vehicle interior, including the
instrument panel fascia, using interior
cleaner.
The instrument panel should only be
cleaned using a soft damp cloth.
Clean fabric upholstery with a vacuum
cleaner and brush. To remove stains, use
cleaner that is suitable for both fabrics and
vinyl.
Do not use cleaning agents such as
acetone, tetrachloride, paint thinner, paint
remover, nail varnish remover, washing
powder or bleach. Petrol is also unsuitable.
Open Velcro fasteners on clothing could
damage seat upholstery. Make sure Velcro
fasteners are closed.
Seat belts
Always keep seat belts clean and dry.
Clean only with lukewarm water or Cleaner.
Windows
When cleaning the heated rear window,
make sure that the heating element on the
inside of the window is not damaged.
Use a soft lint-free cloth or chamois leather
in conjunction with Window Cleaner and
Insect Remover.
Windscreen Wash Solvent is suitable for de-
icing windows.
For mechanical removal of ice, use a
commercially available sharp-edged ice
scraper. Press the scraper firmly against
the glass so that no dirt can get under it
and scratch the glass.
Windscreen wiper blades
Wax, such as that used in car washes, can
cause streaks to form on the windscreen
when the wiper is used.
Smearing wiper blades can be cleaned with
a soft cloth and Vauxhall Windscreen
Wash Solvent, and replaced if necessary,
see page 303.
Locks
The locks are factory-lubricated with a high
quality lock cylinder grease. This prevents
the locks from freezing. Only use de-icer in
urgent cases as this destroys the grease
and damages the function of the locks.
After using de-icer, have a workshop
regrease the locks.
