Appearance Care; Exterior Care; Locks; Washing The Vehicle - Cadillac SRX Owner's Manual

Locks are lubricated at the factory.
Use a de-icing agent only when
absolutely necessary, and have the
locks greased after using. See
Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants.
To preserve the vehicle's finish,
wash it often and out of direct
sunlight.
Rinse the vehicle well, before
washing and after, to remove all
cleaning agents completely. If they
are allowed to dry on the surface,
they could stain.
Dry the finish with a soft, clean
chamois or an all-cotton towel to
avoid surface scratches and water
spotting.
