 When using high-pressure water to wash a vehicle equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key sys- tem, keep the water from spraying on the open button on the trunk.

Be sure to thoroughly wipeoff the water after opening the door. To pre- vent freezing of the weatherstripping on the doors, hood, etc., treat with silicone lubri-cant.
Waxing
CAUTION Waxes containing high abrasive compounds should not be used. These waxes remove rust and stain effectively from the paintwork, but are harmful to the finish
on the paint and the
plate, because they also remove clearcoat.They are also harmful to other glossy sur- faces such as the grille, trim, moldings, etc. Do not use gasoline, kerosene, benzine or paint thinners to remove road tar or other dirt from the vehicle surface. Do not put wax on the areas having black matte coating because it can cause unevendiscoloration, patches, blurs, etc. If these get wax on them, wipe the wax off right away with a soft cloth and warm water. If your vehicle is equipped with a sunroof, be careful not to apply any wax on the weather-strip (black rubber) when waxing the area around the sunroof opening. If stained with wax, the weatherstrip cannotmaintain a weatherproof seal with the sun- roof.
