cle.
Doing so may cause electrical compo-
nents, etc. to malfunction or catch fire.
●Do not get any of the SRS components
or wiring in the vehicle interior wet.
(  P.28)
An electrical malfunction may cause the
airbags to deploy or not function prop-
erly, resulting in death or serious injury.
■Cleaning the interior (especially
instrument panel)
Do not use polish wax or polish cleaner.
The instrument panel may reflect off the
windshield, obstructing the driver’s view
and leading to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
NOTICE

they may discolor the vehicle interior
or cause streaks or damage to painted
surfaces:

leather surfaces:
●Remove any dust or dirt from leather
surfaces immediately.

sunlight for extended periods of time.
Park the vehicle in the shade, espe-
cially during summer.
●Do not place items made of vinyl, plas-
tic, or containing wax on the uphol-
stery, as they may stick to the leather
surface if the vehicle interior heats up
significantly.
■Water on the floor
