DANGER

WARNING
• See General Warnings on page 1-2.
CLEANING THE VEHICLE
See General Warnings on page 1-2.
CAUTION
• Do not use detergents or cleaning solvents that contain ammonia, aromatic solvents, or alkali
materials on body panels or seats.
• Do not allow battery acid to drip on body panels. Battery acid will cause permanent damage. Wash
spilled battery acid from body panels immediately.
Club Car Villager 2 vehicles are equipped with Surlyn ® front and rear bodies. Use only commercially available
automotive cleaners with a sponge or soft cloth for normal cleaning. A garden hose at normal residential water
pressure is adequate.
Club Car does not recommend any type of pressure washing or steam cleaning. Such a process (especially if the
vehicle has a Surlyn
® rear body that is removed) will expose electrical components to moisture. Moisture entering
electrical components can result in water damage and subsequent component failure.
Use non-abrasive wax products. Do not use abrasive leveling or rubbing compounds; these will permanently dull the
gloss. Battery acid, fertilizers, tars, asphalt, creosote, paint, or chewing gum should be removed immediately to prevent
possible stains.
See following CAUTION and NOTE.
CAUTION
• Use of leveling or rubbing compounds will permanently dull finish of vehicle.
• Do not apply wax products to the black plastic material of the front and rear underbody, the front
bumper, or the textured area of the rear beauty panel marked “NO STEP.” Wax will cause these
surfaces to become discolored.
NOTE: Dispose of waste water properly.
SEAT
To preserve seat appearance, clean regularly with mild soap or detergent applied with a sponge or soft cloth. Use a
soft bristle brush to clean areas that are especially soiled. Use the following guidelines:
Light Soiling: A solution of 10% liquid dish soap and warm water applied with a soft, damp cloth is recommended.
A soft bristle brush may be used if necessary. Wipe off any residue with a water dampened cloth.
Difficult Stains: Dampen a soft, white cloth with a solution of 10% household bleach (sodium hypochlorite) and
90% water. Rub gently to remove stain, then rinse with a water dampened cloth to remove bleach concentration.
