14.9 Appearance Care and Protection

14.9.1 Washing the Exterior
• Wash your vehicle regularly with cool or lukewarm water and a
neutral pH soap
• Never use strong household detergents or soap, such as dish
washing or laundry liquid. These products can discolor and spot
painted surfaces
• Never wash a vehicle that is 'hot to the touch' or during
exposure to strong, direct sunlight
• Always use a clean sponge or car wash mitt with plenty of water
for best results
• Dry the vehicle with a chamois or soft terry cloth towel in order
to eliminate water spotting
• It is especially important to wash the vehicle regularly during the
winter months, as dirt and road salt are difficult to remove and
cause damage to the vehicle
• Immediately remove items such as gasoline, diesel fuel, bird
droppings and insect deposits; they can cause damage to the
vehicle's paint work and trim over time
