310 Vehicle Care
.Do not use cleaners that are not
intended for automotive use.
. Use a nonabrasive wax on the
vehicle after washing to protect
and extend the molding finish.
Convertible Top Care
Frequently hand wash convertible
tops with mild car wash soap. Never
use a stiff brush, steam, bleach,
or aggressive cleaners.
If necessary, a soft brush can be
used to remove dirt. When finished
cleaning, thoroughly rinse the fabric.
Avoid automatic car washes with
overhead brushes or very high
pressure sprays as they can cause
damage and leaking.
Only lower the top when it is
completely dry and avoid leaving
the top lowered for extended
periods of time to prevent excessive
interior weathering.
Avoid leaving large amounts of
snow on the top for extended
periods of time as damage may also
occur.
Hood Extractor
Hood Air Extractor
For the Camaro High Performance
vehicle, see the Camaro High
performance supplement.
It is not recommended that the air
extractor on the SS Performance
Package be waxed, as it will change
the gloss level of the surface. In
addition, care must be used when
waxing around the air extractor. If a
small amount of wax is applied to
the extractor it can create an
irregular appearance in the surface
of the panel. The air extractor may have vent
screens in the openings. Keep
leaves or other debris out of the
vent screens.
Caution
Pushing on the vent screens
could damage them. Do not push
on the screens when clearing.
There is a water deflector on the
underside of the air extractor. Do
not remove it.
Cleaning Exterior Lamps/
Lenses, Emblems, Decals, and
Stripes
Use only lukewarm or cold water, a
soft cloth, and a car washing soap
to clean exterior lamps, lenses,
emblems, decals, and stripes.
Follow instructions under "Washing
the Vehicle" previously in this
section.
Lamp covers are made of plastic,
and some have a UV protective
coating. Do not clean or wipe them
when dry.
