*1: If you drive primarily in urban areas that have high concentrations of soot in the air from industry and
from diesel-powered vehicles, replace the dust and pollen filter every 15,000 miles.
*2: Driving in mountainous areas at very low vehicle speeds results in higher transmission temperatures. This requires transmission fluid changes more frequently than recommended by the Maintenance
Minder. If you regularly drive your vehicle under these conditions, have the transmission fluid changed
every 31,250 miles.
*3: If a Maintenance Minder message does not appear more than 12 year after the display for item 5 is reset, change Fuel Cell Insulating Fluid with “Fuel Cell Insulating Fluid - 50% prediluted formulation”
every 12 years.

uuCleaning uExterior Care
Maintenance
• Keep sufficient distance between the cleaning nozzle and the vehicle body.
• Take particular care around the windows. Standing too close may cause water to
enter the vehicle interior.
• Do not spray high pressure water directly into the motor compartment. Instead,
use low pressure water.
• Do not spray high pressure water directly around the hydrogen fuel lid and
ventilation duct.
A good coat of automotive body wax helps protect your vehicle’s paint from the
elements. Wax will wear off over time and expose your vehicle’s paint to the
elements, so reapply as necessary.
If you get gasoline, oil, inverter coolant, or battery fluid on resin coated parts, they
may be stained or the coating may peel. Prom ptly wipe it away using a soft cloth and
clean water.
Wipe using a glass cleaner.
