Car Washing

Washing the Convertible Top
The convertible top should be cleaned
often. However, high pressure car wash-
es may cause water to enter the vehicle.
After washing and thoroughly rinsing
the vehicle, let the top dry in direct sun-
light. A chamois or cloth may leave lint
on the top.
Cleaning the Chrome or Aluminum
Wheels
Keep the wheels clean using mild soap
and water and a soft, clean cloth. Strong
soaps and cleaners could damage the
surface of the wheels.
The chrome or aluminum wheels also
may be damaged if the vehicle is driven
through an automatic car wash that has
silicone carbide tire-cleaning brushes.
Note: Before entering an automatic car
wash, ensure that there is the necessary
amount of ground clearance between
the vehicle and the car wash guide rails.
See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.
