VEHICLE CARE
Cleaning the outside of
your vehicle
EK28A-Ah
If the following is left on your vehicle, it
may cause corrosion, discoloration and
stains, wash the vehicle as soon as pos-
sible.
• Seawater, anti-freeze for road use.
• Soot and dust, iron powder from fact-
ories, chemical substance (acids, alka-
lis, coal-tar, etc.).
• Droppings from birds, carcasses of
insects, tree sap, etc.
WashingEK22AAZa
Chemicals contained in the dirt and dust
picked up from the road surface can
damage the paint coat and body of your
vehicle if left in prolonged contact.
Frequent washing and waxing is the best
way to protect your vehicle from this
damage. This will also be effective in
protecting it from environmental elements
such as rain, snow, salt air, etc.
Do not wash the vehicle in direct sunlight.
Park the vehicle in the shade and spray it
with water to remove dust. Next, using an
ample amount of clean water and a car
washing brush or sponge, wash the
vehicle from top to bottom.
Use a mild car washing soap if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft
cloth. After washing the vehicle, carefully
clean the joints and flanges of the doors,
bonnet, etc., where dirt is likely to remain.CAUTION(1)When washing the under side of
your vehicle or wheel, wear a pair
of rubber gloves in order to pro-
tect your hands.
(2) Refrain from using a car wash as
its brushes may scratch the
paint surface, causing it to lose
its gloss.
Scratches will be especially vis-
ible on darker coloured vehicles.
(3) Never spray or splash water on
the electrical components in the
engine compartment, as this
may adversely affect engine
starting.
Exercise caution also when
washing the underbody; be
careful not to spray water into
the engine compartment.
