uuCleaning uExterior Care
Maintenance
• Keep sufficient distance between the cleaning nozzle and the vehicle body.
• Take particular care around the windows. Standing too close may cause water to
enter the vehicle interior.
• Do not spray high pressure water direct ly into the motor compartment. Instead,
use low pressure water.
• Do not spray water under the hood where the electric motor and other high
voltage system components are located. It could cause a malfunction.
• Do not spray water directly at the charging port.
A good coat of automotive body wax helps protect your vehicle’s paint from the
elements. Wax will wear off over time and expose your vehicle’s paint to the
elements, so reapply as necessary.
If you get coolant or battery fluid on resin coated parts, they may be stained or the
coating may peel. Promptly wipe it away using a soft cloth and clean water.
Wipe using a glass cleaner.

1 Maintaining the Bumpers an d Other Resin Coated Parts
Ask an authorized Honda Clar ity Electric dealer about
the correct coating material when you want to repair
the painted surface of the parts made of resin.
1 Cleaning the Window
When you raise a wiper arm, you may inadvertently
alter the position of the arm by applying undue force.
If you notice that an arm is not in its proper return
position, active the wipers once and they will
automatically reset. 2 Wipers and Washers P. 160
