Vehicle Care 10-79
Protecting Exterior Bright Metal
Parts
Regularly clean bright metal parts
with water or chrome polish on
chrome or stainless steel trim,
if necessary.
For aluminum, never use auto
or chrome polish, steam, or
caustic soap to clean. A coating
of wax, rubbed to high polish, is
recommended for all bright metal
parts.
Front Air Deflector
A. Outer Air Deflector
B. Inner Air Deflector
C. Tab
D. Slot
The front air deflector allows air to
flow cleaner under the vehicle.
Should the front air deflector
become detached, insert Tab C into
Slot D. Repeat for the other side.
Cleaning Exterior Lamps/
Lenses and Emblems
Use only lukewarm or cold water, a
soft cloth, and a car washing soap
to clean exterior lamps and lenses.
Follow instructions under "Washing
the Vehicle" later in this section.
Windshield and Wiper Blades
Clean the outside of the windshield
with glass cleaner.
Clean rubber blades using lint-free
cloth or paper towel soaked with
windshield washer fluid or a mild
detergent. Wash the windshield
thoroughly when cleaning the
blades. Bugs, road grime, sap, and
a buildup of vehicle wash/wax
treatments may cause wiper
streaking.
Replace the wiper blades if they
are worn or damaged. Damage
can be caused by extreme dusty
conditions, sand, salt, heat, sun,
snow and ice.
