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.

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.

Maintenance
Interior care
Interior general precautions
Do not use chemicals, such as per-
fume, cosmetic oil, sun cream, hand
cleaner, and air freshener, inside the
vehicle, because they may damage
or discolor the interior. When one of
the above materials contacts the
interior part, immediately wipe them
off. Refer to the vinyl-cleaning
instructions for the proper cleaning
procedure.
Cleaning the upholstery andinterior trim
Vinyl
Dust the vinyl off with a whisk broom
or vacuum cleaner. Clean a vinyl sur-
face with a vinyl cleaner.
Fabric
Dust the fabric off with a whisk
broom or vacuum cleaner. Clean it
with a mild soap, recommended for
upholstery or carpets. Immediately
remove a stain with a fabric spot
cleaner. When a stain is not immedi-
ately removed, the stain may perma-
nently remain, and its color is
changed. Also, its fire-resistance
capacity is reduced, when the mate-
rial is not properly maintained.
Unauthorized cleaner or incorrect
cleaning procedures may impair
the fabric surface and the fire-
resistant capacity.
Cleaning the lap/shoulder beltwebbing
Clean the belt webbing with a mild
soap, recommended for cleaning
upholstery or carpet. Follow any
instructions of the soap. Do not
bleach or re-dye the webbing, as the
webbing surface may deteriorate.
Cleaning the interior windowglass
When the inner window surface
becomes fogged (possibly covered
with oily, greasy or waxy film), they
should be cleaned with a glass
cleaner. Follow any directions of the
glass cleaner.
Do not scrape or scratch the inner
surfaces of the rear windows. This
may damage the defroster grid of
the rear windows.
NOTICE
NOTICE
Never allow water or other liq-
uids to come in contact with
electrical/electronic compo-
nents inside the vehicle as
this may damage them.
When cleaning leather prod- ucts (i.e. steering wheel and
seats), use a neutral detergent
or a low-alcohol solution.
When using a solution, which
is rich in alcohol, acid or alka-
line, the leather color may
fade or the surface may get
stripped off.
CAUTION

Maintenance
Purge Control Solenoid Valve(PCSV)
The purge control solenoid valve is
controlled by the Engine Control
Module (ECM). When the engine
coolant temperature is low during
idling, the PCSV closes to prevent
the evaporated fuel from getting into
the engine. After warming up the
engine in a normal driving condition,
the PCSV opens to introduce evapo-
rated fuel to the engine.
3. Exhaust emission control system
The Exhaust Emission Control
System is highly effective in control-
ling exhaust emissions, while main-
taining good vehicle performance.
Vehicle modifications
This vehicle should not be modi-
fied. Modification of your vehicle
may affect its driving performance,
safety or durability. This even may
violate safety and emissions regu-
lations of the government.
In addition, damage or perform-
ance problems, which is resulted in
due to any modification, may not
be covered by a warranty.
Use of unauthorized electric devices may cause abnormal vehi-
cle operation, wire damage, bat-
tery discharge and a fire.
Be careful not to damage your
vehicle by using an unauthorized
electric device.
Engine exhaust gas precautions (carbon monoxide)
Carbon monoxide is present in
exhaust fumes. Therefore, when
you smell exhaust fumes of any
kinds, inside your vehicle, immedi-
ately have it inspected and
repaired. When you suspect
exhaust fume emission into your
vehicle, drive the vehicle only when
all windows are fully opened.
Immediately have your vehicle
checked and repaired immediately.
- Exhaust
Engine exhaust gases contain
carbon monoxide (CO). Though
colorless and odorless, it is
dangerous and is lethal, if
inhaled. Follow the instructions
on this page to avoid CO poi-
soning.
WARNING
Engine exhaust and a wide vari-
ety of automobile components
and parts, including compo-
nents found in the interior fur-
nishings in a vehicle, contain or
emit chemicals known to the
State of California to cause can-
cer and birth defects and repro-
ductive harm. In addition, cer-
tain fluids contained in vehicles
and certain products of compo-
nent wear contain or emit chem-
icals known to the State of
California to cause cancer and
birth defects or other reproduc-
tive harm.
