7-1. Maintenance and care

Cleaning and protecting the vehicle exterior

Perform the following to protect the vehicle and maintain it in

prime condition:

● Working from top to bottom, liberally apply water to the vehicle

body, wheel wells and underside of the vehicle to remove any dirt

and dust.

● Wash the vehicle body using a sponge or soft cloth, such as a

chamois.

● For hard-to-remove marks, use car wash soap and rinse thoroughly

with water.

● Wipe away any water.

● Wax the vehicle when the waterproof coating deteriorates.

If water does not bead on a clean surface, apply wax when the vehicle

body is cool.

■Automatic car washes

●Fold the mirrors and remove the antenna before washing the vehicle. Start

washing from the front of the vehicle. Make sure to re-install the antenna

and extend the mirrors before driving.

● Brushes used in automatic car washes may scratch the vehicle surface and

harm your vehicle’s paint.

● Roof antenna and rear spoiler may not be washable in some automatic car

washes. There may also be an increased risk of damage to vehicle.

■High pressure car washes

● Do not allow the nozzles of the car wash to come within close proximity of

the windows.

● Before using the car wash, check that the fuel filler door on your vehicle is

closed properly.

■Note for a smart key system

If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effective

range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In that case, follow the fol-

lowing correction procedures to wash the vehicle:

● Place the key in a position 6 ft. (2 m) or more separate from the vehicle

while the vehicle is being washed. (Take care to ensure that the key is not

stolen.)

● Set the electronic key to battery-saving mode to disable the smart key sys-

tem. (P. 126)

WARNING

■ When washing the vehicle

Do not apply water to the inside of the engine compartment. Doing so may

cause the electrical components etc. to catch fire.
