Automatic car washes
●
Fold the mirrors and remove the antenna before washing the vehicle. Start
washing from the front of the vehicle. Make sure to re-install the antenna
and extend the mirrors before driving.
●
Brushes used in automatic car washes may scratch the vehicle surface and
harm your vehicle's paint.
●
Rear spoiler (if equipped) may not be washable in some automatic car
washes. There may also be an increased risk of damage to vehicle.
■
High pressure car washes
●
Do not allow the nozzles of the car wash to come within close proximity of
the windows and door borders, and high mounted stoplight.
●
Before using the car wash, check that the fuel filler door on your vehicle is
closed properly.
■
When using a car wash (vehicles with a smart entry & start system
equipped with entry function)
If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effective
range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. Place the key in a position
2 m (6 ft.) or more separate from the vehicle while the vehicle is being
washed. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
■
Aluminum wheels (if equipped)
●
Remove any dirt immediately by using a neutral detergent. Do not use hard
brushes or abrasive cleaners. Do not use strong or harsh chemical clean-
ers.
Use the same mild detergent and wax as used on the paint.
●
Do not use detergent on the wheels when they are hot, for example after
driving for long distance in the hot weather.
●
Wash detergent from the wheels immediately after use.
●
To preserve the wheels luster, do not allow hot water, such as from steam
cleaning, to contact them directly.
■
