Use only the bulbs of the specified
wattage.
Make sure to replace the burned-
out bulb with a new one of the
same wattage rating. Otherwise, it
may cause damage to a fuse or an
electric wiring system.
When you are not equipped with
necessary tools, the appropriate
bulbs and the expertise, consult an
authorized EQUUS dealer. In many
cases, it is difficult to replace vehi-
cle light bulbs, because some parts
of the vehicle must be disassem-
bled before getting to the bulb. This
is especially true when disassem-
bling to replace the headlamp
bulb(s). Removing/installing the
headlamp assembly may damage
your vehicle.
Information
After heavy rain or vehicle washing,
headlamp and taillight lenses may
appear to be frosty. This is caused by
the temperature difference between
the lamp inside and outside. This is
similar to the dew condensation on
your windows inside while raining.
This does not indicate a problem with
your vehicle. When water penetrates
into the lamp circuitry, have the vehi-
cle checked by an authorized EQUUS
dealer.

NOTICE
NOTICE
- Working on the lights
Before working on the light,
firmly set the parking brake,
turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK position, and turn OFF
the lights. These are to prevent
a sudden vehicle movement,
burning your fingers or an elec-
tric shock.

Exterior care
Exterior general caution
It is very important to follow the label
directions when using any chemical
cleaner or polish. Read all the warn-
ings and cautions on the label.
High-pressure washing
• When using high-pressure wash-
ers, make sure to maintain suffi-
cient distance from the vehicle.
Insufficient clearance or excessive
pressure can lead to component
damage or water penetration.
Do not spray the camera, sensors or its surrounding area directly with
a high pressure washer. Shock
applied from high pressure water
may cause the device to not oper-
ate normally.
Do not bring the nozzle tip close to boots (rubber or plastic covers) or
connectors as they may be dam-
aged if they come into contact with
high pressure water.
Finish maintenance
Washing
To protect your vehicle’s paint from
rust and deterioration, thoroughly
wash the vehicle at least once a
month with lukewarm or cold water.
After each off-road driving, you
should wash the vehicle. Pay special
attention to removing any salty and
muddy substances. Make sure the
drain holes on the lower door edges
and on the rocker panels are kept
clear and clean. Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,
industrial pollutants and similar
deposits damage your vehicle’s fin-
ish, if not immediately removed.
Even prompt washing with plain
water may not completely remove all
these deposits. A mild soap, which is
safe for a painted surface, may be
used.
After soaping, thoroughly rinse the
vehicle body with lukewarm or cold
water. Do not allow soap to dry on
the finish.
• Do not use strong soap, chemical detergents or hot
water. Do not wash the vehicle
when it is under direct sun-
light, or when its body is
warm.
Be careful when washing the side windows of your vehicle.
Especially, with high-pressure
water, water may penetrate
into the windows and wet the
interior.
To prevent damage to plastic parts and lamps, do not wash
the vehicle with chemical sol-
vents or strong detergents.
CAUTION
- Wet brakes
After washing the vehicle, test
the brake operations to check
whether it is affected by water.
When the braking performance
is deteriorated, dry the brakes
by lightly applying them and
driving forward at a slow speed.
WARNING

Maintenance07
Bright-metal maintenance
Use a tar remover to remove roadtar and insects, not scraping or
using a sharp object.
To protect a bright metal surface from corrosion, apply a coat of wax
or chrome preservative, or polish
the surface.
In winter or in coastal areas, apply a bright metal part with a heavy
coat of wax or preservative. If nec-
essary, coat the part with non-cor-
rosive petroleum jelly or other pro-
tective compound.
Underbody maintenance
Corrosive materials, which are used
to remove ice, snow or dusts, may
accumulate across the vehicle
underbody. When these materials
are not promptly removed, rusting
process may accelerate across the
underbody, such as the fuel lines,
frame, floor pan and exhaust system,
regardless of the rust-protection
treatment.
Thoroughly wash the vehicle under-
body and wheel openings with luke-
warm or cold water once a month,
after driving off a road, or after the
winter season. Pay special attention
to the underbody areas to find any
mud or dirt. Remaining road dirt or
grime across the vehicle underbody
does more harm than good. The
lower edges of doors, rocker panels,
and frame members have drain
holes, which should not be clogged
with dirt; clogging in these areas may
cause rusting.
Aluminum wheel maintenance
The aluminum wheels are coated
with a clear protective finish.
Do not use any abrasive cleaner,polishing compound, solvent, or
wire brushes on aluminum wheels.
They may scratch or damage the
finish.
Clean the wheel, while it is cool.
Use only a mild soap or neutral detergent, and thoroughly rinse
with water. Also, always clean the
wheels after driving on a salted
road. This prevents corrosion.
Avoid washing the wheels with an automatic high-speed washing
brush.
Do not use any alkaline or acid detergent. It may damage and cor-
rode the aluminum wheels coated
with a clear protective finish.
After washing the vehicle, test
the brakes by slowly applying
them to check whether they are
affected by water. When braking
performance is impaired, dry
the brakes by lightly applying
them while driving forward at a
slow speed.
WARNING
To assure the proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use
only lubricants of the proper quality.
The proper lubricants also promote engine efficiency, leading to a better fuel
economy.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.
*1Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*
2Engine oils, labeled as Energy Conserving Oil, are now available. Along with other
additional benefits, they contribute to fuel economy by reducing the amount of fuel
necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to
measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they significantly reduce costs and
deliver energy savings.
*
3When the API service SM engine oil is not available in your country, you are able to use API service SL.
