Vehicle care

During cold weatherThe salt and other chemicals spread on the roads in some areas
in winter can have a harmful effect on the vehicle body. You
should therefore wash the vehicle as often as possible in
accordance with our care-instructions. It is recommended to
have a preservative applied and the underfloor protection
checked before and after the cold weather season.
After washing your vehicle, wipe off all waterdrops from the
rubber parts around the doors to prevent the doors from freez-
ing.NOTE●To prevent freezing of the weatherstripping on the doors,
bonnet, etc., they should be treated with silicone spray.
●Refrain from using a car wash as its brushes may
scratch the paint surface, causing it to lose its gloss.
Scratches will be especially visible on darker col-
oured vehicles.●Never spray or splash water on the electrical compo-
nents 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 com-
partment.●Some types of hot water washing equipment apply
high pressure and heat to the vehicle. They may
cause heat distortion and damage to the vehicle resin
parts and may result in flooding of the vehicle inte-
rior. Therefore; observe the following.
• Maintain a good distance of approx. 50 cm or more
between the vehicle body and the washing nozzle.
• When washing around the door glass, hold the
nozzle at a distance of more than 50 cm and at
right angles to the glass surface.
●Using an automatic car wash, pay attention to the
following items, refering to the operation manual or
consulting a car wash operator. If the following pro-
cedure is not followed, it could result in damage to
your vehicle.
• The outside mirrors are retracted.
• The rear wiper arm assembly is taped or removed.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a rear deflector or
roof rails, consult a car wash operator before using
the car wash.CAUTION
!
●After washing the vehicle, drive the vehicle slowly
while lightly depressing the brake pedal several
times in order to dry out the brakes.
Leaving the brakes wet could result in reduced
braking performance.
Also, there is a possibility that they could freeze up
or become inoperative due to rust, rendering the
vehicle unable to move.
