Range Rover Evoque: Cleaning the exterior
Remove any heavy deposits of
mud and
dirt with a hose before washing the
vehicle.
Never aim a hose water jet directly at
the engine air intake, heater air intakes,
body seals or at any components which
may be damaged.
Do not use a high pressure washer or
steam cleaner in the engine
compartment.
Following cleaning of the vehicle
exterior (particularly with a pressure
washer), it is recommended that the
vehicle is taken for a short drive to dry
out the brakes.
Substances which are corrosive, such
as bird droppings and tree resin, can
damage the vehicle’s paintwork and
should be removed as soon as possible.
Use only cleaning products approved
for use on vehicles.
Camera lenses must be treated with
care. Clean with a low pressure hose
and wipe with a damp cloth.
Note: Do not apply polish to any unpainted areas of the bumper mouldings. It will become ingrained in the textured finish.
