The image is a close-up shot of a self-service car wash instruction panel, which includes text in Portuguese, and graphics
The image is a close-up shot of a self-service car wash instruction panel, which includes text in Portuguese, and graphics. It is likely located in Vila Real, Portugal, given the language used and similar signs in the region. The panel is divided into several sections. The top section, in grey and orange, has the word "STARWASH" in large, stylized letters, followed by "INSTRUÇÕES DE LAVAGEM SELF-SERVICE" (Washing Instructions Self-Service). A smaller box with the words "ATENÇÃO" (Attention) warns users to always hold the nozzle and never release it before stopping the water jet. The logo of "GARSER" with the company's website is located in the top right corner. The central part of the panel describes the different washing stages, each depicted with a circular graphic showing a car being sprayed. These stages include: pre-washing, washing with shampoo, rinsing, wax application, stain removal, foam brush, wheel cleaner, and a stop button. Each stage indicates the water type (e.g., cold, descaled water, or demineralized water), whether detergent or wax is added, the pressure (high or low), and recommended spraying distance (40cm). The bottom part is titled "RESTRIÇÕES DE UTILIZAÇÃO" (Usage Restrictions) and uses symbols with a red circle and a line across each one, prohibiting users from washing animals, people, electrical parts, and engines. Each restriction has a short description below.
