4. Reinstall the drain filter in the reverse
order of the removal procedure.
Note:Make sure that the drain filter is
securely attached to its designated
position by pushing it until the tab
locks. Water may enter the vehicle if the
drain filter is not secured to its
designated position. For this operation
go to an Authorized Dealer.
Plastic Part
Maintenance
When cleaning the plastic lenses of the
lights, do not use gasoline, paraffin,
rectified spirit, paint, thinner, highly
acidic detergents, or strongly alkaline
detergents.
Otherwise, these chemical agents can
discolor or damage the surfaces
resulting in a significant loss in
functionality. If plastic parts become
inadvertently exposed to any of these
chemical agents, flush with water
immediately.
If plastic parts such as the bumpers
become inadvertently exposed to
chemical agents or fluids such as
gasoline, oil, engine coolant, or battery
fluid, it could cause discoloration,
staining, or paint peeling. Wipe off any
such chemical agents or fluids using a
soft cloth immediately.
Caution!
High water temperature and high water
pressure car washers are available
depending on the type of high pressure car
washer device. If the car washer nozzle is
put too close to the vehicle or aimed at one
area for an extended period of time, it
could deform plastic parts or damage the
paint.
Do not use wax containing compounds
(polish). Otherwise, it could result in paint
damage.
In addition, do not use an electrical or air
tool to apply wax. Otherwise, the frictional
heat generated could result in deformation
of plastic parts or paint damage.
INTERIORS
Seats And Fabric Parts
Warning!
Do not use volatile solvents for cleaning
purposes. Many are potentially flammable,
and if used in closed areas they may cause
respiratory harm.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the car: they
might explode. Aerosol cans must not be
exposed to a temperature exceeding
122°F (50°C). When the vehicle is exposed
to sunlight the internal temperature can
greatly exceed this value.
Caution!
Direct contact of air fresheners, insect
repellents,suntan lotions, or hand sanitizers
to the plastic, painted, or
decoratedsurfaces of the interior may
cause permanent damage. Wipe away
immediately.
Damage caused by these type of
products may notbe covered by your New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
