Maintenance
Cleaning the leather seats- Remove all contaminations instantly.Refer to instructions below for
removal of each contaminant.
- Cosmetic products (sunscreen, foun- dation, etc.)
Apply cleansing cream on a cloth and
wipe the contaminate spot. Wipe off
the cream with a wet cloth and
remove water with a dry cloth.
- Beverages (coffee, soft drink, etc.) Apply a small amount of neutral
detergent and wipe until contamina-
tions do not smear.
- Oil Remove oil instantly with absorbable
cloth and wipe with stain remover
used only for natural leather.
- Chewing gum Harden the gum with ice and remove
gradually.Cleaning the seat belt webbing
Clean the belt webbing with any mild
soap solution recommended for cleaning
upholstery or carpet. Follow the instruc-
tions provided with the soap. Do not
bleach or re-dye the webbing because
this may weaken the seat belt.
Cleaning the interior windowglass
If the interior glass surfaces of the vehi-
cle become fogged (that is, covered with
an oily, greasy or waxy film), they should
be cleaned with glass cleaner. Follow the
directions on the glass cleaner container.
Do not scrape or scratch the inside of
the rear window. This may result in
damage to the rear window defroster
grid.

*1: Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.
*2: Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel economy by reducing the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to measure in everyday driving, but in a year's
time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.
*
3: If the ACEA A5 engine oil is not available in your country, you are able to use ILSAC GF-3 (or above) or ACEA A3 (or above).
*4: If the API service SM engine oil is not available in your country, you are able to use API service SL.

Recommended SAE viscosity
number Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an
effect on fuel economy and cold weather
operating (engine start and engine oil
flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils
can provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance, however, higher
viscosity engine oils are required for sat-
isfactory lubrication in hot weather.Using oils of any viscosity other than
those recommended could result in
engine damage.
When choosing an oil, consider the
range of temperature your vehicle will be
operated in before the next oil change.
Proceed to select the recommended oil
viscosity from the chart.
Always be sure to clean the area
around any filler plug, drain plug, or
dipstick before checking or drain-
ing any lubricant. This is especially
important in dusty or sandy areas
and when the vehicle is used on
unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug
and dipstick areas will prevent dirt
and grit from entering the engine
and other mechanisms that could
be damaged.

*1: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a vis-
cosity grade 5W-30 (ACEA A5 or above). However, if the engine oil is not
available in your country, select the proper engine oil using the engine oil
viscosity chart.
*
2: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a vis- cosity grade SAE 5W-20 (API SM / ILSAC GF-4). However, if the engine
oil is not available in your country, select the proper engine oil using the
engine oil viscosity chart.
