vehicle movements!
Unintended vehicle movements can cause

dent prevention regulations.
WARNING
Risk of accident and material damage

troubleshooting issued by the suppli-
ers of the installed components.
► Verify functionality after installing/re-

Maintenance and repair serve to maintain
the operational readiness and to prevent
premature wear. Maintenance is divided
into:

10.1 Care and cleaning
NOTE
Material damage caused by incompat-
ible cleaning agent
Incompatible cleaning agents can damage
the paintwork, metal surfaces or plastic
surfaces as well as destroy lines, hoses
and seals.
► Do not use aggressive cleaning
agents.
► Use acid-free and pH-neutral cleaning
agents.
► Do not clean brake hoses and air
lines with petrol, benzene, petroleum
or mineral oils.
► Only use water to remove stubborn
dirt.
NOTE
Material damage caused by high-pres-
sure cleaners!
When using a high-pressure cleaner, sur-
faces and components can be damaged.
► Keep a minimum distance of approx.
0.3 m between the nozzle of the high-
pressure cleaner and the surface be-
ing cleaned.
► Do not aim the water jet directly at
electrical components, plug connec-
tions, seals or hoses.
NOTE
Material damage caused by road salt!
The use of road salt on public roads can
damage the trailer if it is not cared for
properly.
► After driving on roads treated with
road salt, clean the trailer immediately
with lots of cold water.
► Avoid warm water because it height-
ens the effect of the salt.
