7. CARE AND CLEANING
A. Interior
WARNING: Turn the key to the off position and remove from the key
switch before cleaning or washing the vehicle.
While the entire passenger compartment of the STAR EV Sirius
®
is
designed to be exposed to the elements, reasonable caution must be
taken when exposed to excessive water or pressure during a wash. The
most critical area to avoid excessive water is the control panel in the
center top of the dash where the switches are located. However, the
remaining areas of the interior can be exposed to soap and water. It is
recommended that routine clean-up of the floor, seats, and dash ARE
done so that the vehicle can dry properly to avoid any issues. After final
rinse, a dry towel can be used to remove any excess water but a hand-
held leaf blower does the job faster.
WARNING: Be cautious when using UV protectant on the dash, seats
and floor. While products can help protect the surfaces from oxidation
and keep your Sirius
®
looking new, some products leave a greasy residue
that eliminates traction and promotes slippage. Operating a vehicle with
slippery floors, steering wheel, or seats can be dangerous and discretion
is advised.
B. Exterior
The exterior can be treated just as you would treat your car or truck.
It is recommended that a proper rinse to remove excess sand, mud, and
dirt from the body is performed first. Then a mild soap or branded car
wash soap can be used with a wash mitt or soft cloth. A final rinse is
required to remove any soap residue and a dry towel or hand-held leaf
blower is recommended to dry the unit. Waxing to protect the paint is
encouraged to keep your Sirius
®
looking new for many years.
