keep away from flames, sparks, and
smoking materials. Always handle fuel in wellventilated outdoor areas.
l Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to
get rid of your body’s static electricity by touching a metal part of the car or fuel pump. Any static electricity on your body
could create a spark that ignites fuel va- pour.
l Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, remov-
ing the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do not let any other person come near the fuel
tank filler. If you allowed a person to help you and that person was carrying static electricity, fuel vapour could be ignited.
l Do not perform charging and refueling at
the same time. If you charged with static
electricity, fuel vapour could be ignited by the discharge spark.

CAUTIONlAs your vehicle is equipped with the rain
sensor wipers, place the wiper switch lever
in the “OFF” position to deactivate the rain
sensor before washing the vehicle. Other- wise, the wipers will operate in the presenceof water spray on the windscreen and may
get damaged as a result.
l Refrain from excessively 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 coloured vehi-
cles.
l Never spray or splash water on the electrical
components in the engine compartment. Do- ing so could have an adverse effect on the
Plug-in Hybrid EV system startability.
Exercise caution also when washing the un-
derbody; be careful not to spray water into the engine compartment.
l 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 interior.
Therefore;
• Maintain a distance of approx. 70 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
70 cm and at right angles to the glass sur- face.CAUTIONl 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 re- duced braking performance. Also, there is a possibility that they could freeze up or be-
come inoperative due to rust, rendering the vehicle unable to move.
l When using an automatic car wash, pay at-
tention to the following items, referring to the operation manual or consulting a car
wash operator. If the following procedure is not followed, it could result in damage to
your vehicle.
• The outside mirrors are retracted.
• The wiper arms are secured in place with
tape.
• As your vehicle is equipped with a roof
rails, consult a car wash operator before using the car washer.
• As your vehicle is equipped with the rain
sensor wipers, place the wiper switch lev- er in the “OFF” position to deactivate the
rain sensor.
• Make sure that the charging lid and the
fuel lid are completely closed.
• If your vehicle is equipped with the Ultra-
sonic misacceleration Mitigation System, turn the system off by using “FCM and
Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation
System ON/OFF switch” on page 7-60.During cold weather
Salt and other chemicals spread on the roads
in some areas in winter can have a harmful effect on the vehicle body. You should there-
fore wash the vehicle as often as possible in accordance with our care-instructions. It is
