• Use a high quality cleaner wax, such as
MOPAR Cleaner Wax or equivalent to re-
move road film, stains, and to protect your
paint finish. Take care never to scratch the
paint.
• Avoid using abrasive compounds and power
buffing that may diminish the gloss or thin
out the paint finish.
CAUTION!
• Do not use abrasive or strong cleaning
materials such as steel wool or scouring
powder, which will scratch metal and
painted surfaces.
• Use of power washers exceeding 1,200 psi
(8 274 kPa) can result in damage or re-
moval of paint and decals.
Special Care
• If you drive on salted or dusty roads or if you
drive near the ocean, hose off the undercar-
riage at least once a month.
• It is important that the drain holes in the lower
edges of the doors, rocker panels and tail-
gate are kept clear and open.
• If you detect any stone chips or scratches in
the paint, touch them up immediately. The
cost of such repairs is considered the re-
sponsibility of the owner.
• If your vehicle is damaged due to an acci-
dent or similar cause which destroys the
paint and protective coating, have your ve-
hicle repaired as soon as possible. The cost
of such repairs is considered the responsi-
bility of the owner.
• If you carry special cargo such as chemi-
cals, fertilizers, de-icer salt, etc., assure that
such materials are well packaged and
sealed.
• If a lot of driving is done on gravel roads,
consider installing mud or stone shields be-
hind each wheel.
• Use MOPAR Touch-Up Paint or equivalent
on scratches or chips as soon as possible.
Your authorized dealer has touch-up paint to
match the color of your vehicle.

essary. Do not use harsh cleaners or Armor
