Maintenance and care
■Brake pads and calipers 
Rust may form if the vehicle is parked  with wet brake pads or disc rotors, caus-ing them to stick. Before parking the  
vehicle after it is washed, drive slowly  and apply the brakes several times to dry the parts.
■Bumpers 
Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners.
■Plated portions (if equipped) 
If dirt cannot be removed, clean the  parts as follows:
●Use a soft cloth dampened with an approximately 5% solution of neutral  
detergent and water to clean the dirt  off.
●Wipe the surface with a dry, soft cloth to remove any remaining moisture.
●To remove oily deposits, use alcohol wet wipes or a similar product.
WARNING
■When washing the vehicle 
Do not apply water to the inside of the  engine compartment. Doing so may cause the electrical components, etc.  
to catch fire.
■When cleaning the windshield  (vehicles with rain-sensing wind-shield wipers) 
Set the wiper switch to off. If the wiper  switch is in “AUTO”, the wipers may operate unexpectedly in the following  
situations, and may result in hands  being caught or other serious injuries and cause damage to the wiper  
blades. 
Off 
AUTO
●When the upper part of the wind- shield where the raindrop sensor is located is touched by hand
●When a wet rag or similar is held close to the raindrop sensor
●If something bumps against the windshield
●If you directly touch the raindrop sensor body or if something bumps  
into the raindrop sensor
■Precautions regarding the  exhaust pipe 
Exhaust gasses cause the exhaust  
pipe to become quite hot. When washing the vehicle, be careful not to touch the pipe until it has  
cooled sufficiently, as touching a hot  exhaust pipe can cause burns.

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.
■To prevent damage to the wind-
shield wiper arms 
When lifting the wiper arms away  from the windshield, pull the driver  
side wiper arm upward first, and  repeat for the passenger side. When returning the wipers to their original  
position, do so from the passenger  side first.
■When using an automatic car wash (vehicles with rain-sensing windshield wipers) 
Set the wiper switch to the off posi- tion. If the wiper switch is in “AUTO”, the wipers may operate and the wiper  
blades may be damaged.
■When using a high pressure car 
wash
●Vehicles with rear view monitor sys- tem: When washing the vehicle, do  
not spray the camera or its sur- rounding 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  
emblem. Otherwise it may cause  the device to be damaged.
