NOTABLES FOR CAR WASHING
46
<CLEANING>
●Clean the air cleaner element in clean
oil, squeeze excess oil, and then, wra-
pping it in a dry cloth, squeeze it again.
●Make sure all excess oil removed and
reassemble the air cleaner element.
OIL : SAE # 80 ~ 90
●Make sure to stop the engine prior to
car washing.
●Be careful not to allow water to enter
the muffler during the washing.Water
inside the muffler may cause an
improper engine starting or rust
occurrence.
●Do not let water get inside the braking
system during the washing, as water
inside the brake system may weaken the
braking power. Upon completion of
washing, select a safe place where there
is no traffic obstruction, and start the
vehicle.
Lightly apply the brake while driving at
a slow speed and check the braking
power. If the braking power has been
weakened, apply brake lightly while
driving at a slow speed to dry up the
brake system.
●Take precautions when waxing the
vehicle. Excessive polish of the painted
section and/or the resin part with
compound wax might damage the
painted section causing discoloration of
the affected area.
●Do not use gasoline or other ma-
terials having a low ignition point as
this can be a fire hazard.
●If the air cleaner element is in-
adequately assembled, dust and other
waste materials can directly enter the
engine. This results in increased
cylinder wear and redu-ced power,
and reduced durability of the engine.
●When washing the vehicle, be careful
not to allow water to get into the air
cleaner.
Difficulties in starting the engine
may result if this happens.
●If the engine start is failed during
rain or after driving across water
pool, check to see if the water is
infiltrated in the air cleaner and clean
it.
●Do not drive in the flooded area. If
the water enters the air cleaner or
engine, the vehicle may be subjected
to the rear-end collision due to the
power failure.
