6. Use and maintenance
Waxing
Regular waxing can protect the body paint
and keep the body smooth and clean. In
order to effectively protect the body paint, it is
recommended to apply high-quality hard wax
once a year to protect the paint surface from
external adverse environment and resist slight
mechanical scratches.
Be sure to wipe the appearance of the entire
vehicle dry before waxing. Before waxing
the vehicle, please select a high-quality
wax protectant. High-quality wax protectant
generally falls into the following two types:
-
Body wax: a wax used to protect the paint
surface against damage due to external
poor environments such as sun exposure
and air pollution. This type of wax is
generally used for new vehicles.
-
Polishing wax: a wax which can restore
the gloss of the paint surface that has
been oxidized or tarnished. This type of
wax is generally used to restore the gloss
of paint surface.
Cleaning and maintenance of external
plastic parts
External plastic parts are generally washed
with clean water, soft cloth and soft brushes. If
they cannot be cleaned, please use the special
solvent-free plastics cleaner approved by our
company.
CAUTION
Solvent-containing cleaning materials shall
not be used when cleaning plastic parts.
Otherwise, it is easy to damage the plastic
parts.
Washing of windows and rearview mirrors
Clean the windows and rearview mirrors with
an alcohol-containing glass cleaner, and then
dry the glass surface with a clean lint-free soft
cloth or antelope skin.
After care of the body surface, the wax
remaining on the glass shall be removed with
special cleaning agent and cleaning cloth, so
as to avoid scratching the wiper blade.
Snow on windows and rearview mirror can be
removed with a small brush.
Remove accumulated ice using de-icer spray.
An ice shovel can also be used, but special
care must be taken to avoid damage to the
components, and ice must be shaved in the
same direction.
