The following products will ensure glass
surfaces and windscreen wipers are kept
in good condition:
Jaguar Screen Clean Paste – Apply to the
exterior of the windscreen only to ensure
effective operation of the windscreen
wiper.
Jaguar Glass Cleaner – Interior and
exterior of all other glass surfaces.

additive.
Jaguar Winter Care Kit comprising
de-icer, ice scraper, anti-mist wipe cloth
and aerial cleaner – for use in adverse

Note:
1. Renew the wiper blades when worn to
prevent scratching. Clean the rubber
wiper blades regularly with a mild
detergent solution.
2. It is advisable to clean the windscreen
with Jaguar Screen Clean Paste at
regular intervals.
Cleaning the rear screen
To avoid damaging the heating and radio
elements when cleaning the inside of the
rear screen use only a soft damp cloth or
chamois leather. Do not use solvents or
sharp objects to clean the glass.
Polishing paintwork and chromium
plating
For maximum protection against road
dust, salts, industrial fall-out etc., it is
recommended that the vehicle is polished
regularly using Jaguar Polish, Chrome
Polish and a Polishing Cloth.
Paint chips
Scratches and chips should be touched in
before weathering action begins. Inspect
the paintwork immediately after the
vehicle has been washed.
Underbonnet cleaning
Underbonnet cleaning using high
pressure hoses or steam cleaners should
be done by a Jaguar Dealer.
Indiscriminate use of cleaning equipment
could damage or contaminate the
electronic control modules and fuse
boxes.
Care of alloy road wheels
The alloy road wheels are covered with a
protective anti-corrosion coating. To
prevent corrosion it is essential that this
coating is not damaged.
When removing or fitting tyres always
advise the tyre fitter to treat the alloy
wheels with great care and to only use
equipment with spigot or stud hole
clamping. The equipment must not have
any moving parts which contact the
wheel, and tyre levers must not be used.
Wash the wheels with soap and water at
two week intervals to avoid an
accumulation of particles which could
become embedded in the wheel surface.
In salty conditions the wheels should be
cleaned weekly.
In compliance with German Road Traffic
Law the size of the wheel rims is stamped
or cast on all wheels.
