Do not use cleaning agents that are petroleum
based, or that contain acid or abrasives. All
cleaning agents should be flushed promptly and
not allowed to dry on the surface, or they
could stain. Dry the finish with a soft, clean
chamois or an all-cotton towel to avoid surface
scratches and water spotting.
Notice: If you drive your vehicle through an
automatic car wash that does not have enough
clearance for the wide rear tires and wheels,
you could damage your vehicle. Verify with the
manager of the car wash that your vehicle
will fit before entering the car wash or use a
touchless car wash.
High pressure car washes may cause water to
enter the vehicle.
If you are cleaning your vehicle with the hood
open, take care not to spray water directly
into either end of the air cleaner/filter housing as
this could damage your vehicle’s engine. See
Engine Air Cleaner/Filter on page 342 for more
information.
Cleaning Exterior Lamps/Lenses
Use only lukewarm or cold water, a soft cloth and
a car washing soap to clean exterior lamps
and lenses. Follow instructions under Washing
Your Vehicle on page 411.
Finish Care
Occasional waxing or mild polishing of the vehicle
by hand may be necessary to remove residue
from the paint finish. Approved cleaning products
can be obtained from your dealer. See Vehicle
Care/Appearance Materials on page 417.
Notice: Machine compounding or aggressive
polishing on a basecoat/clearcoat paint
finish may damage it. Use only non-abrasive
waxes and polishes that are made for a
basecoat/clearcoat paint finish on your vehicle.
