Maintenance and care
Remove dirt and dust using a vac-
uum cleaner. Wipe dirty surfaces
with a cloth dampened with luke-
warm water.
 If dirt cannot be removed, wipe it off
with a soft cloth dampened with
neutral detergent diluted to approx-
imately 1%.
Wring out any excess water from the cloth
and thoroughly wipe off remaining traces
of detergent and water.
■Shampooing the carpets
There are several commercial foaming-type
cleaners available. Use a sponge or brush
to apply the foam. Rub in overlapping cir-
cles. Do not use water. Wipe dirty surfaces
and let them dry. Excellent results are
obtained by keeping the carpet as dry as
possible.
■Handling the seat belts
Clean with mild soap and lukewarm water
using a cloth or spon ge. Also check the
belts periodically for excessive wear, fraying
or cuts.
■When cleaning the carpeted portions of
the glove box, console box, etc.
If a strong adhesive tape is used, there is a
possibility that the surface of the carpet
could be damaged.
■CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plas-
tic) parts (if equipped)
When cleaning, remove dirt using a soft moist cloth or synthetic chamois, and then
wipe the surface with a soft dry cloth to
remove any remaining moisture.
Cleaning and protecting the
vehicle interior
Perform cleaning in a manner
appropriate to each component
and its material.
Protecting the vehicle interior
WARNING
■Water in the vehicle
●Do not splash or spill liquid in the vehi-
cle.
Doing so may cause electrical compo-
nents, etc. to malfunction or catch fire.
●Do not get any of the SRS components
or wiring in the vehicle interior wet.
(  P.28)
An electrical malfunction may cause the
airbags to deploy or not function prop-
erly, resulting in death or serious injury.
■Cleaning the interior (especially
instrument panel)
Do not use polish wax or polish cleaner.
The instrument panel may reflect off the
windshield, obstructin g the driver’s view
and leading to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■Cleaning detergents
●Do not use the following liquids, as
they may discolor the vehicle interior
or cause streaks or damage to painted
surfaces:
• Center Display: Organic substances such as benzine or gasoline, alkaline
solutions, and alcohol
• Seats: Alkaline solutions, organic sub- stances such as thinner or benzine,
and alcohol
• Other parts: Organic substances such as benzine or gasoline, alkaline or
acidic solutions, dye, and bleach
●Do not use polish wax or polish
cleaner. The instrument panel’s or
other interior part’s painted surface
may be damaged.

3287-2. Steps to take in an emergency
WARNING
• If the hose comes off the valve while inflating the tire, there is a risk that the
hose will move abruptly due to air
pressure.
• After inflation of the tire has com- pleted, the sealant may splatter when
the hose is disconnected or some air is
let out of the tire.
●Follow the operation procedure to
repair the tire. If the procedure is not
followed, the sealant may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it is
being repaired, as th ere is a chance of
it bursting while the repair operation is
being performed. If you notice any
cracks or deformation of the tire, turn
off the compressor switch and stop the
repair operation immediately.
●The kit may overheat if operated for a
long period of time. Do not operate
the compressor continuously for more
than 35 minutes.
●Parts of the kit become hot during
operation. Be careful handling the kit
during and after operation. Do not
touch the metal part around the con-
necting area between the bottle and
compressor. It will be extremely hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed warn-
ing sticker to an area other than the
one indicated. If the sticker is attached
to an area where an SRS airbag is
located, such as the pad of the steering
wheel, it may prevent the SRS airbag
from operating properly.
■Driving to spread the liquid sealant
evenly
●Drive the vehicle carefully at a low
speed. Be especially careful when
turning and cornering.
●If the vehicle does not drive straight or
you feel a pull through the steering
wheel, stop the vehicle and check the
following:
• Tire condition. The tire may have sepa- rated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If tire inflation pressure is 19 psi (130 kPa, 1.3 kgf/cm
2
or bar) or below, this may indicate
severe tire damage.
NOTICE
■When performing an emergency
repair
●Perform the emergency repair with-
out removing the nail or screw that has
punctured the tread of the tire. If the
object that has punctured the tire is
removed, repair by the emergency tire
puncture repair kit may not be possi-
ble.
●The kit is not waterproof. Make sure
that the kit is not exposed to water,
such as when it is being used in the
rain.
●Do not put the kit directly onto dusty
ground such as sand at the side of the
road. If the kit vacuums up dust etc., a
malfunction may occur.
●Make sure to stand the kit with the bot-
tle vertical. The kit cannot work prop-
erly if it is laid on its side.
■Handling the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit
●The compressor power source should
be 12 V DC suitable for vehicle use.
Do not connect the compressor to any
other source.
●If gasoline splatters on the kit, the kit
may deteriorate. Take care not to allow
gasoline to contact it.
