6-1. Maintenance and care
NOTICE
• If liquids such as benzene and gas- oline are spilled on the paint sur-
face
●If the paint is chipped or scratched,
have it repaired immediately.
●To prevent the wheels from corrod-
ing, remove any dirt and store in a place with low humidity when stor-ing the wheels.
■Cleaning the exterior lights
●Wash carefully. Do not use organic
substances or scrub with a hard brush.This may damage the surfaces of
the lights.
●Do not apply wax to the surfaces of
the lights. Wax may cause damage to the lenses.
■To prevent damage to the wind-shield wiper arms
When lifting the wiper arms away from the windshield, pull the driver side wiper arm upward first, and
repeat for the passenger side. When returning the wipers to their original position, do so from the passenger
side first.
■When using an automatic car
wash (vehicles with rain-sensing windshield wipers)
Set the wiper switch to the off posi-
tion. If the wiper switch is in “AUTO”, the wipers may operate and the wiper blades may be damaged.
■When using a high pressure car wash
●Vehicles with rear view monitor sys-
tem: When washing the vehicle, do not spray the camera or its sur-rounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Shock applied from high pressure water may cause the device to not operate
normally.
●Do not spray water directly on the
radar which is equipped behind the emblem. Otherwise it may cause the device to be damaged.
●Do not bring the nozzle tip close to boots (rubber or resin manufac-
tured cover), connectors or the fol- lowing parts. The parts may be damaged if they come into contact
with high-pressure water.
• Traction related parts
• Steering parts
• Suspension parts
• Brake parts
●Keep the cleaning nozzle at least 30 cm (11.9 in.) away from the vehi-
cles body. Otherwise resin section, such as moldings and bumpers, may be deformed and damaged.
Also, do not continuously hold the nozzle in the same place.
●Do not spray the lower part of the windshield continuously. If water enters the air conditioning system
intake located near the lower part of the windshield, the air conditioning system may not operate correctly.
●Do not wash the underside of the vehicle using a high pressure car
washer.
