NOTICE
■To prevent paint deterioration
and corrosion on the body and components (aluminum wheels, etc.)
●Wash the vehicle immediately in the following cases:
• After driving near the sea coast
• After driving on salted roads
• If coal tar or tree sap is present on
the paint surface
• If dead insects, insect droppings or
bird droppings are present on the paint surface
• After driving in an area contami- nated with soot, oily smoke, mine dust, iron powder or chemical sub-
stances
• If the vehicle becomes heavily
soiled with dust or mud
• If liquids such as benzene and gas-
oline are spilled on the paint sur- face
●If the paint is chipped or scratched, have it repaired immediately.
●To prevent the wheels from corrod-ing, remove any dirt and store in a place with low humidity when stor-
ing the wheels.
■Cleaning the exterior lights
●Wash carefully. Do not use organic substances or scrub with a hard brush.
This may damage the surfaces of the lights.
●Do not apply wax to the surfaces of the lights.Wax may cause damage to the
lenses.

area directly with a high pressure washer. Shock applied from high pressure water may cause the
device to not operate normally.
●Do not spray water directly on the
radar which is equipped behind the radar sensor cover. Otherwise it may cause the device to be dam-
aged.
●Do not bring the nozzle tip close to
boots (rubber or resin manufac- tured cover), connectors or the fol-lowing parts. The parts may be
damaged if they come into contact with high-pressure water.

7-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
WARNING
The motor compartment contains many mechanisms and fluids that
may move suddenly, become hot, or become electrically energized. To avoid death or serious injury, observe
the following precautions.
■When working on the motor com-
partment
●Make sure that “POWER ON” on the multi-information display and
the “READY” indicator are both off.
●Keep hands, clothing and tools
away from the moving fan.
●Be careful not to touch the motor,
power control unit, radiator, etc., right after driving as they may be hot. Coolant and other fluids may
also be hot.
●Do not leave anything that may
burn easily, such as paper and rags, in the motor compartment.
●Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose an open flame to the 12-volt battery. 12-volt battery fumes are
flammable.
●Be extremely cautious when work-
ing on the 12-volt battery. It con- tains poisonous and corrosive sulfuric acid.
●Never touch, disassemble, remove or replace the high voltage parts,
cables and their connectors. It can cause severe burns or electric shock that may result in death or
serious injury.
●Take care because brake fluid can
harm your hands or eyes and dam- age painted surfaces. If fluid gets on your hands or in your eyes, flush
the affected area with clean water immediately. If you still experience discomfort, consult a doctor.
■When working near the electric cooling fan or radiator grille
Be sure the power switch is OFF.
With the power switch in ON, the electric cooling fan may automatically start to run if the air conditioning is on
and/or the coolant temperature is high. ( P.471)
■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or falling material, fluid spray, etc.,
from getting in your eyes.
NOTICE
■If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level to
go down slightly as the brake pads wear or when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent refill- ing, it may indicate a serious problem.
