1. Remove dirt using a sponge while sprinkling water on the
vehicle.
2. Use neutral detergent on any dirt that cannot be removed
easily with water.
Rinse off the neutral detergent after washing the vehicle.
3. Dry the vehicle thoroughly using a chamois leather or a
soft cloth.
Window glass
E00901600117
The window glass can normally be cleaned using only a
sponge and water.
Glass cleaner can be used to remove oil, grease, insect car-
casses, etc. After washing the glass, wipe it dry with a clean,
dry, soft cloth. Never use a cloth that is used for cleaning a
painted surface to clean a window. Wax from the painted sur-
face could get on the glass and lower glass transparency and
visibility.
OTE
● To clean the inside of the rear window, always use a soft
cloth and wipe the window glass along the demister heater
element so as not to cause damage.
Wiper blades
E00901700062
Use a soft cloth and glass cleaner to remove grease, dead
insects, etc., from the wiper blades. Replace the wiper blades
when they no longer wipe properly (refer to page 8-19).
Cleaning the sunroof*
E00902200035
Use a soft cloth to clean the inner side of the sunroof. Hard
deposits should be wiped away with a cloth dipped in warm,
neutral detergent solution. Wipe away the solution with a
sponge dipped in fresh water.
OTE
● The surface treatment on the inside of the glass may be
removed if hard cloth or organic solvent (benzine, thinner,
etc.) is used.
CAUTION
!
● Do not use a brush or other hard implement on the
wheels.
Doing so could scratch the wheels.
● Do not use any cleaner that contains an abrasive
substance or is acidic or alkaline. Doing so could
cause the coating on the wheels to peel or become
discoloured or stained.
● Do not directly apply hot water using a steam
cleaner or by any other means.
● Contact with seawater and road deicer can cause
corrosion. Rinse off such substances as soon as pos-
sible.
