CLEANING THE VEHICLE
Read General Warning, Section 1, Page 1-1.
Each vehicle is equipped with an ABS/DR acrylic front body, an all-aluminum rear body and frame, and either
an aluminum or steel cargo bed. Use a commercial automotive cleaning solutions with a sponge or soft cloth
for normal cleaning. A garden hose at normal residential water pressure is adequate. To remove oxidation or
discoloration from aluminum, use a commercially available aluminum cleaner paste and fine grade (No. 00)
steel wool.
Club Car does not recommend any type of pressure washing or steam cleaning. Such a process will expose
electrical components to moisture. Moisture entering electrical components can result in water damage and
subsequent component failure.
Use non-abrasive wax products. Battery acid, fertilizers, tars, asphalt, creosote, paint, or chewing gum should
be removed immediately to prevent possible stains
The front body is made of an ABS/DR acrylic cap material similar to the material used to manufacture hot tubs
and shower/tub units. Cleaning and repair techniques for the front body are the same as those used on con-
ventional acrylic sheet. Use cleaning and polishing products available at any hardware store where ABS/DR
acrylic (hot tubs and shower/tub units) are sold.
The seats of the vehicle will last longer with proper cleaning. Use a solution of 10% liquid soap and warm
water applied with a soft cloth. For imbedded dirt, a soft bristle brush may be used. For heavy soiling, difficult
stains, or scratches, blemishes, or other body damage, see the appropriate maintenance and service manual.
See following NOTE.
NOTE: Dispose of waste water properly.
