APPEARANCE CARE
Exterior care
Exterior general caution
It is very important to follow the label
directions when using any chemical
cleaner or polish. Read all warning
and caution statements that appear
on the label.
✽ ✽
NOTICE
If you park the vehicle around a
stainless signboard or building etc.,
the plastic exterior trim (bumper,
spoiler, garnish, lamp, outside mir-
ror etc.) may be damaged by reflect-
ed sunlight from the external struc-
ture. To avoid damaging the plastic
exterior trim, park the vehicle away
from the areas where the reflected
light may occur or use a vehicle
cover (Depending on the vehicle, the
type of exterior trim applied such as
spoiler may differ).
Finish maintenance
Washing
To help protect your vehicle’s finish
from rust and deterioration, wash it
thoroughly and frequently at least
once a month with lukewarm or cold
water.
If you use your vehicle for off-road
driving, you should wash it after each
off-road trip. Pay special attention to
the removal of any accumulation of
salt, dirt, mud, and other foreign mate-
rials. Make sure the drain holes in the
lower edges of the doors and rocker
panels are kept clear and clean.
Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,
industrial pollution and similar
deposits can damage your vehicle’s
finish if not removed immediately.
Even prompt washing with plain water
may not completely remove all these
deposits. A mild soap, safe for use on
painted surfaces, may be used.
After washing, rinse the vehicle thor-
oughly with lukewarm or cold water.
Do not allow soap to dry on the finish.WARNING
After washing the vehicle, test
the brakes while driving slowly
to see if they have been affected
by water. If braking performance
is impaired, dry the brakes by
applying them lightly while
maintaining a slow forward
speed.

Maintenance
Underbody maintenance
Road salt and other corrosive chemi-
cals are used in cold weather states to
melt snow and prevent ice accumula-
tion. If these chemicals are not regu-
larly removed, they will corrode the
vehicle underbody and over time dam-
age fuel lines, the fuel tank retention
system, the vehicle suspension, the
exhaust system, and even the body
frame. The National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration has warned all
vehicle owners of all brands of the
need to take the following steps:
 Wash the undercarriage of yourvehicle regularly during the winter
and whenever your vehicle has
been exposed to such salts or
chemicals.  Do a thorough washing of the
undercarriage at the end of the
winter.
 Use professional service techni- cians or governmental inspection
stations to annually inspect for cor-
rosion.
 Immediately seek an inspection of your vehicle if you become visually
aware of corrosion flaking or scal-
ing or if you become aware of a
change in vehicle performance,
such as soft or spongey brakes,
fluids leaking, impairment of direc-
tional control, suspension noises
or rattling metal straps.
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 the finish.
 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 corro-
sion.
 Avoid washing the wheels with highspeed vehicle wash brushes.
 Do not use any alkaline or acid detergents as they may damage or
corrode aluminum wheels coated
with a clear protective finish.

RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS AND CAPACITIES
LubricantVolumeClassification
Engine oil *1 *2 (drain and refill)
Smartstream G1.64.0 US qt. (3.8 l)Full synthetic API SN PLUS/SP or ILSAC
GF-6
Intelligent variable transmission6.87 US qt. (6.5 l)SP-CVT1*3
Coolant 5.81 US qt. (5.5 l)
Mixture of antifreeze and water
(Ethylene-glycol with phosphate
based coolant for cooling device)
Brake fluid0.7~0.8 US qt. (0.7~0.8 l)FMVSS116 DOT-4
Fuel11.9 US gal (45 l)Unleaded gasoline
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use only lubricants of the proper quality.
The correct lubricants also help promote engine efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.
*1:Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*2:Requires < API SN PLUS (or above) Full synthetic> grade engine oil. If a lower grade engine oil (mineral oil including
Semisynthetic) is used, then the engine oil and engine oil filter must be replaced as indicated severe maintenance condition.
*3:Use only specified genuine Intelligent Variable Transmission(IVT) fluid. The use of non-specified fluid (even marked as compat-
ible with genuine) could result in shift quality deterioration and vibrations, eventually, the transmission failure.(Refer to
“Explanation of Scheduled Maintenance Items” in chapter 7.)
