Cleaning exterior
In order to maintain the appearance of
your vehicle, it is important to take proper
care of it.
To protect the paint surface, wash your
vehicle as soon as you can:
► after a rainfall to prevent possible
damage from acid rain
► after driving on coastal roads
► when contaminants such as soot, bird
droppings, tree sap, metal particles or
bugs get on the paint surface
► when dust or mud builds up on the
surface
Whenever possible, store or park your
vehicle inside a garage or in a covered
area.
When it is necessary to park outside, park
in a shady area or protect the vehicle with
a body cover.
Be careful not to scratch the paint surface when putting on or removing the body cover.
