Maintenance
• Keep sufficient distance  between the cleaning nozzl e and the vehicle body.
• Take particular care around the windows. St anding too close may cause water to 
enter the vehicle interior.
• Do not spray high pressure water direct ly 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 inverter coolant or battery fluid on resin coated parts, they may be stained 
or the coating may peel. Promptly wipe it  away using a soft cloth and clean water.
Wipe using a glass cleaner.

Chemical solvents and st rong cleaners can damage 
the paint, metal, and plasti c on your vehicle. Wipe 
away spills immediately.
1 Maintaining the Bumpers an d Other Resin Coated Parts
Ask an authorized Honda Cl arity Fuel Cell dealer 
about the correct coating ma terial when you want to 
repair the painted surface of  the parts made of resin.
1Cleaning the Window
When you raise a wiper arm, you may inadvertently 
alter the position of the arm by applying undue force.
If you notice that an arm is  not in its proper return 
position, active the wipers once and they will 
automatically reset. 2 Wipers and Washers  P. 162
