Maintenance and care
CAUTION
■
When cleaning the windshield (veh icles equipped with the raindrop
detection windshield wipers)
Make sure to turn off the wiper switch.
If the switch is left in the “AUTO” position, the windshield wiper may operate
unexpectedly in the following situations. Failure to turn off the wiper switch
may possibly result in hands being caught or other serious injuries and
cause damage to the windshield wiper.
● When the upper part of the windshield where the raindrop sensor is
located is touched by hand
● When a wet rag or similar is held close to the raindrop sensor
● If something bumps against the windshield
● If you directly touch the sensor body or if something bumps into the sensor
■ Caution about the exhaust pipe
Exhaust gasses cause the exhaust pipe to become quite hot.
When washing the vehicle, be careful not to touch the pipe until it has cooled
sufficiently, as touching a hot exhaust pipe can cause burns.
