Hand washing is gentler on the paint than an
automatic car wash. Since the paint on a new
vehicle may take several months to harden
completely, we recommend washing the vehi-
cle by hand during this period. Use clean water,
a suitable car washing detergent and a sponge.
keep in mind that dirt or grit on the sponge can
scratch the paint. car care
