●However, charging exceeding 5 W
is supported by the following por-
table devices.
• Charging at 7.5 W or less is sup-
ported by iPhone’s that support
7.5 W charging.
• Charging at 10 W or less is sup-

• When washing the vehicle, use water to wash off dirt. If the vehi-
cle is particularly dirty, use a
diluted neutral detergent and a
sponge or a soft cloth and wash
off the dir t by hand.
• Wash detergent off with water immediately after use. After using
detergent, wash the detergent off
