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 water under the hood wh ere the electric motor and other high 
voltage system components are located. It could cause a malfunction.
• Do not spray water directly at the charging port.
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 coolant or battery fluid on resin coated parts, they may be stained or the 
coating may peel. Promptly wipe it aw ay using a soft cloth and clean water.
Wipe using a glass cleaner.

Chemical solvents and strong 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 Clar ity Electric dealer about 
the correct coating material  when you want to repair 
the painted surface of the parts made of resin.
1 Cleaning 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. 160
