CAUTION: Do not use wax or
polish containing any harsh abrasives,
cutting compounds, or cleansers
that may damage the vehicle finish.
If in doubt when choosing a
product, please contact Lucid for
recommendations.CAUTION: Carefully read and follow
all of the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the wax or polish
product.
Regular waxing helps to protect the paint
surfaces from harsh elements and maintain
their appearance. After the first year, Lucid
recommends polishing your vehicle before
reapplying wax. Polishing removes built-up
residue and keeps the surface of the finish
even.
The exterior paint should be regularly checked for damage. Any minor scratches or chipsshould be repaired as soon as possible
using touch-up paint (contact Lucid for
recommendations).
Body repairs should only be performed by
a body shop approved by Lucid. Contact
a Lucid Service Center for assistance in
locating an approved body shop near you.
Using a Car Cover
CAUTION: Never use a car cover when
the vehicle is plugged in, as this
can prevent the battery from being
adequately cooled during charging.
To preserve the cosmetic appearance of the
body when the vehicle is not being used, you
may wish to use a car cover.
Cleaning the Interior
General cleaning
WARNING: Exposure to chemicals in
some cleaners can be hazardous and
can irritate eyes and skin. Always
read and follow the manufacturer
CAUTION: Do not use statically-
charged materials (such as a cloth
that was recently machine-washed
and dried) on the displays.CAUTION: Do not use cleansers (such
as glass cleaner) to clean displays.
Display screens should only be cleaned using
a soft, lint-free cloth designed for cleaning
screens and monitors.
Before cleaning the display screens, use the
Pilot Panel to enable screen cleaning mode
to prevent accidental operation of vehicle
controls. Select
> Displays > Displays
& Accessibility > SCREEN CLEANING MODE.
Airbags
WARNING: Airbag covers should only
be cleaned using a slightly dampened
cloth or cleaning wipe. Water or any
other liquid entering into an airbag
or its associated electrical wiring may
cause the airbags to deploy or not
function properly in an accident.WARNING: Any damage or cracks on
an airbag cover should be referred to a
Lucid Service Center for inspection.
Seats
WARNING: Never use steam or
upholstery cleaners on the seats,
or any cleaning method that would
saturate the seat with liquid. This can
damage the occupancy weight sensor
in the seat, which in turn can affect
the operation of the airbag system and
result in serious injury or death.
For cloth seats:
-If necessary, gently vacuum the seats
first to remove any loose dust, dirt, or
debris.
- Use a soft, colorless cloth moistened
with warm water and (if necessary) non- detergent soap. Wipe gently in a circular
motion. Allow the seats to air dry after
cleaning.
For leather and artificial leather seats:
-To clean, use a soft, colorless cloth
moistened only with warm water. Do
not use polishes, oils, cleaning fluids,
solvents, or detergents.
- Avoid vacuuming. Instead, use your
moistened cleaning cloth to gently
remove any loose particles.
- Application of a leather conditioner is
not necessary to maintain the original
condition of the seats.
Seat beltsWARNING: Never allow any substance
to enter a seat belt mechanism,
as this can negatively affect its
performance in an impact.
Extend the seat belt and clean using a cloth
moistened only with water. Do not use any
type of detergent or chemical cleaning agent.
Allow the belts to air dry while extended, away
from direct sunlight if possible.
Chrome and metal surfaces
Do not use abrasive cleansers, rough cloths,
or polish, as these materials can damage the
finish of these surfaces.
Plastic materials
WARNING: Do not use polish or wax
cleaner on the upper surfaces of the dashboard. Polished surfaces are
reflective and may interfere with the
driver
Tire Care and Maintenance
Inspecting and Maintaining TiresWARNING: The tires should be
regularly checked for wear and to
make sure that there are no cuts,
bulges, or exposure of the ply/cord
structure. Do not drive with tires that
are worn, damaged, or inflated to
the incorrect pressure. Driving under
any of these conditions could lead to
collision due to tire failure and/or loss
of control and result in serious injury
or death to the occupants or others.
Always consider tire conditions when driving,
and regularly inspect the tread and sidewalls for any sign of distortion (bulges), cuts, or
wear.
Good driving practice will improve the
mileage you obtain from your tires and avoid
unnecessary damage.
-Always ensure that the tire pressures
are correctly adjusted.
- Always observe the posted speed limits
and advisory speeds.
- Avoid pulling away quickly or hard
acceleration.
- Avoid making fast turns or braking
sharply.
- Avoid potholes and objects on the road.
- Do not run over curbs or hit the tire
against the curb when parking.
CAUTION: Avoid contaminating tires
with vehicle fluids that can cause
damage.
Tire wear
WARNING: The tire wear indicators
show the minimum tread depth
recommended by the tire
manufacturer. Tires that have worn
to this point will have reduced
grip and poor water displacement
characteristics.
Tires fitted as original equipment have tread
wear indicators molded into the tread pattern.
When the tread has been worn down
to approximately 2/32 inch (1.6 mm), the
indicators become flush with the surface of
the tread pattern, producing the effect of a
continuous band of rubber across the width of
the tire.
A tire must be replaced as soon as an
indicator band becomes flush to the tread,
indicating the tread has reached the minimum
permitted by legislation.
Note: Your Lucid Service Center will evaluate
tire wear when servicing your vehicle.
Wheel alignment and tire balance
Unbalanced wheels (sometimes noticeable as
steering wheel vibration) may affect vehicle
handling and tire life. Even with regular use,
wheels can get out of balance. Therefore, you
should balance your wheels as required.
Note: If tire wear is uneven (on one side of the
tire only) or becomes abnormally excessive, you should check the wheel alignment.
Wheel and tire rotation
WARNING: Your vehicle may be fitted
with different size tires on the front and rear wheels. The front and
rear wheels may also have different
offsets. Do not move wheels between
the front and rear axles as this will
severely affect vehicle handling.Tire & Wheels176
Lucid does not recommend moving the
wheels between the front and rear axles, or
from side to side on the same axle pair.
Punctured tiresWARNING: Do not drive the vehicle
with a punctured tire. Even if the
punctured tire has not deflated, it is
unsafe to use as the tire may deflate
suddenly at any time.
Your vehicle is fitted with tubeless tires, which
may not leak when penetrated, provided the
object remains in the tire.
If, however, you feel a sudden vibration or ride
disturbance while driving, or you suspect your
tire or vehicle has been damaged, immediately
reduce your speed. Drive slowly while avoiding
heavy braking or sharp steering, and when
safe to do so, stop the vehicle.
Inspect the tires for damage. If a tire is under-
inflated and does not appear to have any
damage to the sidewall, try to repair using a
tire repair kit. If you cannot detect the cause
or the tire is too heavily damaged, have the
vehicle recovered to a tire repair center, or a Lucid Service Center to have the vehicle
inspected.
A puncture will eventually cause the tire to
lose pressure, which is why frequent checking
of tire pressures is important. Punctured or
damaged tires must be permanently repaired or replaced as soon as possible.
Age degradation
Tires degrade over time due to the effects of
ultraviolet light, extreme temperatures, high
loads, and environmental conditions. It is recommended that tires are replaced every
six years, but may require replacement more
frequently.
Maintaining Tire Pressures
WARNING: Use a gauge to check tire
pressures when COLD. Under-inflation
is the most common cause of tire
failures and may result in severe
tire cracking, tread separation, or
“blowout,” with an unexpected loss of
vehicle control and increased risk of
injury.Each tire should be checked monthly and
inflated to the pressure recommended on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire inflation pressure for
those tires).
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat and can lead
to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces
battery range and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle
