Maintenance
• Keep sufficient distance between the cleaning nozzl e and the vehicle body.
• Take particular care around the windows. Standing too close may cause water to
enter the vehicle interior.
• Do not spray water into the engine compartment.
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 gasoline, oil, coolant, or batter y 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.

Ask an authorized Honda Clarity Plug- In Hybrid
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. 166
