Waxing
Your vehicle needs to be waxed when
water no longer beads on the finish.
Always wash and dry the vehicle before
waxing it. In addition to the vehicle
body, wax the metal trim to maintain its
lustre:
Use wax which contains no
abrasives. Waxes containing abrasive
will remove paint and could damage
bright metal parts.
Use a good grade of natural wax for
metallic, mica, and solid colors.
When waxing, coat evenly with the
sponge supplied or a soft cloth.
Wipe off the wax with a soft cloth.
Note:
A spot remover to remove oil, tar, and
similar materials will usually also take off
the wax. Rewax these areas even if the
rest of the vehicle does not need it.

Seats And Fabric Parts
Warning!
Do not use volatile solvents for cleaning
purposes. Many are potentially flammable,
and if used in closed areas they may cause
respiratory harm.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the car: they
might explode. Aerosol cans must not be
exposed to a temperature exceeding
122°F (50°C). When the vehicle is exposed
to sunlight the internal temperature can
greatly exceed this value.
Caution!
Direct contact of air fresheners, insect
repellents, suntan lotions, or hand
sanitizers, to the plastic, painted, or
decorated surfaces of the interior may
cause permanent damage. Wipe away
immediately.
Damage caused by these type of
products may not be covered by your New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Rubbing the interior side of the
convertible top vigorously with a stiff brush
or cloth may cause damage.
Interior Panels
When the interior panels need to be
cleaned, use soft material such as a
soft cloth soaked in clean water and
wrung out well and lightly wipe off dirt
from the surface.
If a panel requires further cleaning, wipe
dirt off using a soft cloth soaked in mild
detergent (about 5% solution) and wipe
off any remaining detergent using a
cloth soaked in clean water and wrung
out well.
Caution!
Do not wipe leather parts using alcohol,
chlorine bleach, or organic solvents such
as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise,
it may cause discoloration or stains.
Note:
Scratches or nicks on the panels
and metallic trim resulting from the use
of a hard brush or cloth may not be
repairable.
Be particularly careful when
cleaning high gloss panels and metallic
trim as they can be easily scratched.
