If painted surfaces have
been severely dam-
aged and lost their original luster and color tone, polish the surface
lightly with a fine
polishing compound. Avoid limiting your polishing to the damage
d surface only; polish
a somewhat wider area, moving the polishingcloth in one direction.
After polishing, flush
the compound from the surface and apply a coat of wax to regain a beautiful luster.
N00946201099
Small cracks and scratches in the paint coat should be touched up as
soon as possible with
touch-up paint to prevent corrosion.Check body areas facing the road or the tires carefully for damage to the paint caused by flying stones, etc. The
paint code number for
your vehicle can be found on the vehicle information code plate located on the front passenger door sill.
N00946301221
Use a sponge or chamois to clean these parts.If the vehicle wax sticks to a gray or black rough surface of the bumper, molding or lights, the surface may appear white in color.In this case, wipe it
off using lukewarm water
and a soft cloth or chamois.
N00946400052
To prevent spots and corrosion of chrome parts, wash with water, dry thoroughly, and apply a nonabrasive automotive wax. If the chrome is severely da
maged or pitted, use a
commercially available chrome polish.
N00946500183
1. Remove dirt using a wet sponge.2. Use a mild detergent on any dirt that can- not be removed ea
sily with water.
Rinse off the detergent after washing thewheel. 3. Dry the wheel thoroughly using a chamois leather or a soft cloth.
 Do not use gasoline, benzine, kerosene or paint thinners to remove
road tar or other dirt
from the vehicle surface. Do not put wax on the areas having black matte coating because
it can cause uneven
discoloration, patches,
blurs, etc. If these get
wax on them, wipe the wax off right away with a soft clot
h and warm water.
On vehicles with sunr
oof, be careful not to
apply any wax on the weatherstrip (blackrubber) when waxing the area around the sunroof opening. If stained with wax,
the weatherstrip cannot
maintain a weatherproof seal with the sun- roof.
Polishing
CAUTION
Damaged paint Cleaning plastic parts
CAUTION Do not use a scrubbing brush or other rough scrubber as these may
damage the plastic
surface. Do not use wax containing compounds (pol- ishing powder) which
may damage the plas-
tic surface.
 Do not let plastic parts
get soiled with gaso-
line, oil, brake fluids
, engine oils, greases,
paint thinner, and sulfuric acid (battery elec-trolyte), as such substa
nces will cause stains,
cracks, or discoloration. If any of these get on a plastic part, wipethem up with a soft cloth or chamois and a mild solution of soap and water. Then rinse them immediately with water.
