Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,

industrial fallout, and similar deposits can

damage the finish if not removed

immediately. When prompt washing with

plain water is ineffective, use a mild soap

made for use on vehicles.

Thoroughly rinse off all soap with

lukewarm or cold water. Do not allow

soap to dry on the finish.

After washing the vehicle, dry it with a

clean chamois to prevent water spots from

forming.

WARNING

Dry off brakes that have become wet

by driving slowly, releasing the

accelerator pedal and lightly applying

the brakes several times until the brake

performance returns to normal:

Driving with wet brakes is

dangerous. Increased stopping

distance or the vehicle pulling to one

side when braking could result in a

serious accident. Light braking will

indicate whether the brakes have

been affected.

When using a high water pressure car

wash

High water temperature and high water

pressure car washers are available

depending on the type of car wash

machine. If the car washer nozzle is put

too close to the vehicle, the force of the

spray could damage or deform the

molding, affect the sealability of parts,

and allow water to penetrate the interior.

Keep a sufficient space (30 cm or more)

between the nozzle and the vehicle. In

addition, do not spend too much time

spraying the same area of the vehicle, and

be very careful when spraying between

gaps in doors and around windows.

Waxing

Your vehicle needs to be waxed when

water no longer beads on the finish.

Always wash and dry the vehicle before

waxing it. In addition to the vehicle body,

wax the metal trim to maintain its luster.

1. Use wax which contains no abrasives.

Waxes containing abrasive will remove

paint and could damage bright metal

parts.

2. Use a good grade of natural wax for

metallic, mica, and solid colors.

3. When waxing, coat evenly with the

sponge supplied or a soft cloth.

4. Wipe off the wax with a soft cloth.

NOTE

A spot remover to remove oil, tar, and similar

materials will usually also take off the wax.

Rewax these areas even if the rest of the

vehicle does not need it.
