Maintenance
Aluminum wheel maintenance
The aluminum wheels are coated
with a clear protective finish.
• Do not use any abrasive cleaner,polishing compound, solvent, or
wire brushes on aluminum wheels.
They may scratch or damage thefinish.
• Clean the wheel when it has cooled.
• Use only a mild soap or neutral detergent, and rinse thoroughly
with water. Also, be sure to clean
the wheels after driving on salted
roads. This helps prevent corrosion.
• Avoid washing the wheels with highspeed car wash brushes.
• Do not use any alkaline or acid detergent. It may damage and cor
rode the aluminum wheels coated
with a clear protective finish.
Corrosion protection
Protecting your vehicle from corro sion
By using the most advanced design
and construction practices to combat
corrosion, we produce vehicles of
the highest quality. However, this is
only part of the job. To achieve the
longterm corrosion resistance your
vehicle can deliver, the owner's
cooperation and assistance is alsorequired.
Common causes of corrosion
The most common causes of corro
sion on your vehicle are:
• Road salt, dirt and moisture that isallowed to accumulate underneath
the vehicle.
• Removal of paint or protective coatings by stones, gravel, abra
sion or minor scrapes and dents
which leave unprotected metal
exposed to corrosion.
Highcorrosion areas
If you live in an area where your vehi
cle is regularly exposed to corrosive
materials, corrosion protection is
particularly important. Some of the
common causes of accelerated cor
rosion are road salts, dust control
chemicals, ocean air and industrialpollution.

Maintenance
Keep your garage dry
Don't park your vehicle in a damp,
poorly ventilated garage. This cre
ates a favorable environment for cor
rosion. This is particularly true if you
wash your vehicle in the garage or
drive it into the garage when it is still
wet or covered with snow, ice or
mud. Even a heated garage can con
tribute to corrosion unless it is well
ventilated so moisture is dispersed.
Keep paint and trim in good condi
tion
Scratches or chips in the finish
should be covered with "touchup"
paint as soon as possible to reduce
the possibility of corrosion. If bare
metal is showing through, the atten
tion of a qualified body and paint
shop is recommended.
Bird droppings : Bird droppings are
highly corrosive and may damage
painted surfaces in just a few hours.
Always remove bird droppings as
soon as possible.
Don't neglect the interior
Moisture can collect under the floor
mats and carpeting and cause corro
sion. Check under the mats periodi
cally to be sure the carpeting is dry.
Use particular care if you carry fertil
izers, cleaning materials or chemi
cals in the vehicle.
These should be carried only in
proper containers and any spills or
leaks should be cleaned up, flushed
with clean water and thoroughly
dried.Interior care
Interior general precautions
Prevent chemicals such as perfume,
cosmetic oil, sun cream, hand clean
er, and air freshener from contacting
the interior parts because they may
cause damage or discoloration. If
they do contact the interior parts,
wipe them off immediately. See the
instructions that follow for the proper
way to clean vinyl.
Never allow water or other liquids to
come in contact with electrical/ elec
tronic components inside the vehicle
as this may damage them.
When cleaning leather products
(steering wheel, seats etc.), use neu
tral detergents or low alcohol content
solutions. If you use high alcohol
content solutions or acid/alkaline
detergents, the color of the leather
may fade or the surface may get
stripped off.

•It is permissible to add 3 psi to the standard tire pressure specification if colder temperatures are expected soon.
Tires typically loose 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 7°C temperature drop. If extreme temperature variations are expected,
recheck your tire pressure as necessary to keep them properly inflated.
•An air pressure generally decreases, as you drive up to a highaltitude area above sea level. Thus, if you plan to
drive a highaltitude area, check the tire pressures in advance. If necessary, inflate them to a proper level. (Air infla
tion per altitude : +10 kPa/1 km)
