Vehicle care
Scratches, corrosive deposits, corrosion
or damage due to negligent or incorrect
care cannot always be removed or re-
paired with the car-care products recom-
mended here. In such cases it is best to
seek aid at an authorized Maybach Stu-
dio.
The following topics deal with the clean-
ing and care of your vehicle and give im-
portant "how-to" information as well as
references to car-care products approved
by us for use on Maybach vehicles.
Refrigerator**
Clean out the refrigerator regularly with
a vinegar-and-water solution. Mix the
solution in a ratio of 1 part vinegar to
10 parts water. Allow the refrigerator to
dry before using it again.
Power-wash
When using a power-wash for cleaning
the vehicle, always observe the manufac-
turer’s operating instructions.
Tar stains
Quickly remove tar stains before they dry
and become more difficult to remove.
A tar remover is recommended.
Paintwork, painted body components
Paint Care approved by us for use on
Maybach vehicles should be applied
when water drops on the paint surface
do not "bead up", normally every three
to five months, depending on climate
and washing detergent used.
Paint Cleaner approved for use on
Maybach vehicles should be applied if
the paint surface shows signs of embed-
ded dirt (i.e. loss of gloss).
Do not apply any of these products or
wax if your vehicle is parked in the sun or
if the hood is still hot.
Use the appropriate Touch-Up Stick ap-
proved by us for use on Maybach vehicles
for quick and provisional repairs of mi-
nor paint damage (i.e. chips from stones,
vehicle doors, etc.).
i
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO**:
If an outside door handle is hit by a
strong jet of water, and a SmartKey
with KEYLESS-GO** is in close prox-
imity, i.e. within approximately 3 ft
(approximately 1 m), the vehicle
could be inadvertently locked or un-
locked.
!
Never use a round nozzle to
power-wash tires. The intense jet of
water can result in damage to the
tire.
Always replace a damaged tire.
Always keep the jet of water moving
across the surface. Do not aim directly
at electrical parts, electrical connec-
tors, seals, or other rubber parts.
