To protect your vehicle’s finish, wash it often and thoroughly. If desired, you may wax your vehicle using a nonabras
ive automobile wax.
N00945800046
Industrial pollution, road tar, bird droppings, tree sap, insect remain
s, sea water and other
foreign matters can damage the finish on your vehicle.Generally, the longer any foreign material stays on the finish, the worse the damage. Wash your vehicle as soon as possible when-ever the finish gets soiled.
N00945900627
Chemicals cont
ained in the dirt and dust
picked up from air, rain, snow or road sur- faces can damage the paint and body of your vehicle if left on.Frequent washing and wa
xing is the best way
to protect your vehicl
e from this damage.
Do not wash the vehicle in direct sunlight.Park the vehicle in the shade and spray it with water to remove dust.
Next, using plenty of
clean water and a car washing mitt or sponge, wash the vehicle from top to bottom.Use a mild car washing soap if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and wipe
dry with a cham-
ois or soft cloth. Af
ter washing the vehicle,
carefully clean the join
ts and flanges of the
doors, hood, etc., wher
e dirt is likely to
remain.
Cleaning the outside of your vehicle Foreign material Wa s h i n g
WA R N I N G Do not wash the vehicle while charging the main drive lithium-ion battery. Doing so could cause a fire or an electric shock. Before washing the vehicle, make sure that the charging lid and the inner lid arecompletely closed. If the lid is open, the charging unit is exposed to water, resulting in a fire or anelectric shock. Do not pour water inside the electric motor unit room. Doing so could cause a fire or an el
ectric shock.
CAUTIONWhen washing the vehicle, turn the electric motor switch to the “LOCK” position. Do not use a high pressure washing machine to clean the underneath of the vehicle. Doing so might cause th
e electric motor unit
problem or malfunction.
When washing the underside of your vehicle or the wheels, wear a pair of gloves to pro-tect your hands. Never spray or splash
water on the electrical
parts in under the hood. This may damagethem. Be careful also when washing the underbody. Do not spray water up under the hood. Avoid automatic car washers that use rotat- ing brushes. These br
ushes may scratch the
paint surface and make it dull. Scratches are more not
iceable on darker col-
ored vehicles. Some hot water wash
ing equipment uses
high pressure and heat
to clean your vehicle.
This heated water ma
y damage your vehi-
cle’s resin parts. It
can flood the interior of
the vehicle. Therefore,
be sure of the follow-
ing:• Keep the washing nozzle at least 28 inches(70 cm) away from the vehicle body.• When washing around the door glass, holdthe nozzle at a distance of more than 28 inches (70 cm) and at right angles to the glass surface.
Make sure to do the following when using an automatic car wash, with help from eitherthis manual or the car wash operator, to avoid damaging your vehicle:• Fold the outside mirrors.• Remove the antenna.• Tape the wiper arm assembly.CAUTION

To prevent spots and corrosion of chrome parts, wash with water, dry thoroughly, andapply a nonabrasive automotive wax. If the chrome is severely da
maged or pitted, use a
commercially available chrome polish.

1. Remove dirt using a wet sponge.2. Use a mild detergent on any dirt that can-not be removed ea
sily with water.
Rinse off the detergent after washing the wheel.3. Dry the wheel thoroughly using a chamois leather or a soft cloth.

The window glass can
usually be cleaned
using only a sponge and
water. Glass cleaner
can be used to remove wax, oil, grease, deadinsects, etc. After washing the glass, wipe it dry with a clean, dry, soft cloth.
N00946700097
Use a soft cloth and gl
ass cleaner to remove
grease, dead insects, etc., from the wiper blades.Replace the wiper blades when they no longer clean the windshield and rear window prop- erly.
N00947000127
Never spray or splash
water on the electrical
components under the hood, as this may cause damage.Do not allow any nearby
parts (such as plastic
parts) come into contact with sulphuric acid (12V starter battery el
ectrolyte), which may
crack, stain, or discolour them. If this occurs, wipe the parts with a soft cloth saturated with a mild detergent and water solution. Then immediately rinse the affected partswith plenty of water.
Do not use wax containing compounds (pol- ishing powder) which ma
y damage the plas-
tic surface. Do not let the plastic parts get soiled with gasoline, oil, brake fl
uids, greases, paint
thinner, and sulfuric
acid (battery electro-
lyte). These fluids, et
c., may crack, stain or
discolor the plastic parts.If any of these get on the plastic parts, wipe them up with a soft cloth or chamois and a mild solution of soap and water. Then rinsethem immediately with water.
Chrome parts Aluminum wheels
CAUTION
CAUTION Do not use a brush or other hard implement on the wheels.Doing so could scratch the wheels. Do not use any cleaner that contains an abra- sive substance or is ac
idic or alkaline. Doing
so could cause the co
ating on the wheels to
peel or become disc
olored or stained.
Do not directly apply
hot water using a steam
cleaner or by any other means. Contact with seawater or road salt used for de-icing can cause corr
osion. Rinse off such
substances as soon as possible.

This information is provided in compliance with the requirements of the National High- way Traffic Safety Ad
ministration, Depart-
ment of Transportation. It provides the purchasers and/or prospective purchasers with information on repor
ting safety defects.
DOT quality grades - Al
l passenger vehicle
tires must conform to
Federal Safety Require-
ments in addition to these grades. The spe- cific grade rating in each grade category isshown on the side wall of the tires on your vehicle. The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a specifiedgovernment test course
. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and one-half (11/2) times as well on the government course
as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance
of tires depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart signifi- cantly from the norm due to variations indriving habits, service practices and differ- ences in road characteristics and climate. The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled conditions on specified government te
st surfaces of asphalt
and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance. The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C, representing the ti
re’s resistance to the
generation of heat and it
s ability to dissipate
heat when tested un
der controlled conditions
on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the
material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce
tire life, and excessive temperature can leadto sudden tire failure. The grade C corre- sponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Fed-eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the labora
tory test wheel than
the minimum required by law.
