Cleaning

Interior Care

Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust before using a cloth.

Use a damp cloth with a mixture of mild detergent and warm water to remove dirt.

Use a clean cloth to remove detergent residue.

1Interior Care

Do not spill liquids inside the vehicle.

Electrical devices and systems may malfunction if

liquids are splashed on them.

Cleaning Seat Belts

■

Do not use silicone based sprays on electrical devices

such as audio devices and switches.

Doing so may cause the items to malfunction or

cause a fire inside the vehicle.

Use a soft brush with a mixture of mild soap and warm water to clean the seat belts.

Let the belts air dry. Wipe the loops of the seat belt anchors using a clean cloth.

If a silicone based spray is inadvertently used on

electrical devices, consult a dealer.

Loop

Depending on their composition, chemicals and

liquid aromatics may cause discolouration, wrinkles,

and cracking to resin-based parts and textiles.

Do not use alkali solvents or organic solvents such as

benzene or petrol.

After using chemicals, make sure to gently wipe them

away using a dry cloth.

Do not place used cloths on top of resin based parts

or textiles for long periods of time without washing.

Be careful not to spill a liquid type air freshener.

1Floor Mats

Floor Mats^*

■

If you use any floor mats that were not originally

provided with your vehicle, make sure they are

designed for your specific vehicle, fit correctly, and

are securely anchored by the floor anchors.

Position the rear seat floor mats properly. If they are

not properly positioned, the floor mats can interfere

with the front seat functions.

The driver’s floor mat hooks over the floor anchors, which keep the mat from sliding

forward. To remove a mat for cleaning, turn the anchor knobs to the unlock

position. When reinstalling the mat after cleaning, turn the knobs to the lock

position.

Do not put additional floor mats on top of the anchored mat.

1Maintaining Genuine Leather

Maintaining Genuine Leather^*

■

It is important to clean or wipe away dirt or dust as

soon as possible. Spills can soak into leather resulting

in stains. Dirt or dust can cause abrasions in the

leather. In addition, please note that some dark

coloured clothing can rub onto the leather seats

resulting in discoloration or stains.

To properly clean leather:

1. Use a vacuum or soft dry cloth first to remove any dirt or dust.

2. Clean the leather with a soft cloth dampened with a solution comprised of 90%

water and 10% neutral soap.

3. Wipe away any soap residue with a clean damp cloth.

4. Wipe away residual water and allow leather to air dry in the shade.

Exterior Care

Dust off the vehicle body after you drive.

Regularly inspect your vehicle for scratches on painted surfaces. A scratch on a

painted surface can result in body rust. If you find a scratch, promptly repair it.

1Washing the Vehicle

Washing the Vehicle

■

Do not spray water into the air intake vents. It can

cause a malfunction.

Wash the vehicle regularly. Wash more frequently when driving in the following

conditions:

• If driving on roads with road salt.

• If driving in coastal areas.

• If tar, soot, bird droppings, insects, or tree sap are stuck to painted surfaces.

Using an Automated Car Wash

■

• Make sure to follow the instructions indicated on the automated car wash.

• Remove or store the audio antenna^*.

2 Audio Antenna P. 224

Air Intake Vents

• Fold in the door mirrors.

• Turn off the automatic intermittent wipers.

Using High Pressure Cleaners

■

• Keep sufficient distance between the cleaning nozzle and the vehicle body.

• Take particular care around the windows. Standing too close may cause water to

enter the vehicle interior.

• Do not spray high pressure water directly into the engine compartment. Instead,

use low pressure water and a mild detergent.

1Applying Wax

Applying Wax

■

NOTICE

A good coat of automotive body wax helps to protect your vehicle’s paint from the

elements. Wax will wear off over time and expose your vehicle’s paint to the

elements, so reapply as necessary.

Chemical solvents and strong cleaners can damage

the paint, metal, and plastic on your vehicle. Wipe

away spills immediately.

1Maintaining the Bumpers and Other Resin Coated Parts

Maintaining the Bumpers and Other Resin Coated Parts

■

Ask a dealer about the correct coating material when

you want to repair the painted surface of the parts

made of resin.

If you get petrol, oil, engine coolant, or battery fluid on resin coated parts, they may

be stained or the coating may peel. Promptly wipe it away using a soft cloth and

clean water.

Cleaning the Window

■

Wipe using a glass cleaner.

Maintaining Aluminium Wheels^*

■

Aluminium is susceptible to deterioration caused by salt and other road

contaminants. When necessary, as early as possible use a sponge and mild detergent

to wipe away these contaminants. Do not use a stiff brush or harsh chemicals

(including some commercial wheel cleaners). These can damage the protective finish

on aluminium alloy wheels, resulting in corrosion. Depending on the type of finish,

the wheels also may lose their luster or appear burnished. To avoid water stains,

wipe the wheels dry with a cloth while they are still wet.

Fogged Exterior Light Lenses

■

The inside lenses of exterior lights (headlights, brake lights, etc.) may fog temporarily

if you have driven in the rain, or after the vehicle has been run through a car wash.

Dew condensation also may build up inside the lenses when there is a significant

enough difference between the ambient and inside lens temperatures (similar to

vehicle windows fogging up in rainy conditions). These conditions are natural

processes, not structural design problems in the exterior lights.

Lens design characteristics may result in moisture developing on the light lens frame

surfaces. This also is not a malfunction.

However, if you see large amounts of water accumulation, or large water drops

building up inside the lenses, have your vehicle inspected by a dealer.
