Hand washing is gentler on the paint than an automatic car wash. Since the paint on a new vehicle may take several months to harden completely, we recommend washing the vehicle by hand during this period. Use clean water, a suitable car washing detergent and a sponge. Keep in mind that dirt or grit on the sponge can scratch the paint. car care emergency brake assist (eba)
