Seat Leon >> Steel wheels
Clean steel wheels regularly using a separate sponge.
Use an industrial cleaner to remove brake dust. Any damage to the paint on steel wheels should be repaired before the metal starts to rust.
WARNING
• Never wash tyres with a cylindrical jet. Even at large spraying
distances
and short cleaning times, visible and invisible damage can occur to the
tyres. This may cause an accident.
• Moisture, ice and salt on the brakes may affect braking efficiency. Risk
of accident. If possible, avoid sudden braking immediately after washing
the vehicle. You must “dry” the brakes by applying the brakes carefully
several times “Braking effect and braking distance”.
Care of rubber seals
If rubber seals are well looked after, they will not freeze so
quickly.
1. Use a soft cloth to remove dust and dirt from the rubber seals.
2. Apply a specialist care product to the rubber seals.
