o Do not expose the bumpers to high tem-peratures. For example, if youhave your car repainted, do notleave the bumpers on the car if the car is going to be placed in a high- temperature paint booth.
CAUTION:
!
o Water washing in the engine com- partment including high pressure water washing may cause the fail-ure of electrical circuits located in the engine compartment.
