Mazda fuse or equivalent of the same
rating. Otherwise you may damage
the electric system.

Plastic Part Maintenance
 








y When cleaning the plastic lenses of the
lights, do not use gasoline, kerosene,
recti¿ ed spirit, paint, thinner, highly
acidic detergents, or strongly alkaline
detergents. Otherwise, these chemical
agents can discolor or damage the
surfaces resulting in a signi¿ cant loss
in functionality. If plastic parts become
inadvertently exposed to any of these
chemical agents, À ush with water
immediately.
 


y If plastic parts such as the bumpers
become inadvertently exposed to
chemical agents or À uids such as
gasoline, oil, engine coolant, or battery

y 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.
 


y Do not use wax containing compounds
(polish). Otherwise, it could result in
paint damage.
