Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class: Cleaning the wheels
Do not use acidic wheel cleaning products to remove brake dust. This could
damage wheel bolts and brake components.
Do not park the vehicle for an extended period straight after cleaning it,
particularly after having cleaned the wheels with wheel cleaner. Wheel cleaners
could cause increased corrosion of the brake discs and brake pads/linings. For this
reason, you should drive for a few minutes after cleaning. Braking heats the brake
discs and the brake pads/linings, thus drying them. The vehicle can then be parked.
Power washers
WARNING
Do not use power washers with circular-jet nozzles (dirt grinders) to clean your
vehicle, in particular the tires. You could otherwise damage the tires and cause
an accident.
