CARE AND CLEANING OF THE EXTERIOR
Washing your vehicle
The best way to preserve the finish of
your vehicle is to keep it clean by wash-
ing it frequently.
• Park your car out of direct sunlight.
• Use mild soap specified for washing
cars with cold or lukewarm water.
• Make sure to rinse all soaps and
cleaners completely off the surface.
NOTE
• Do not use household dishwashing
liquid to wash your car.
Dish soap will wash car wax off your
paint.
Cleaning the outside of the windshield
Wax or other material on the windshield
or the blade of the windshield wiper
can cause the wiper blade to chatter
during operation. Such foreign materi-
als also can make it difficult to keep
your windshield clean.
Periodically use a non-abrasive cleaner
on the outside of the windshield.
Water will not bead on a clean wind-
shield.
