Servicing Your Honda 190
Appearance Care
Frequent cleaning and polishing will keep your Honda looking newer
longer.
Frequent cleaning also identifies you as an owner who values his ATV.
A clean ATV is also easier to inspect and service.
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 111.
• To clean your ATV, you may use:
– water
– Hondabrite
– a mild, neutral detergent and water
– a mild spray and wipe cleaner/polisher
– a mild spray and rinse cleaner/degreaser and water
• Avoid products that contain harsh detergents or chemical
solvents that could damage the metal, paint, plastic, and
camouflage coating on your ATV (Honda SxS).
• If your ATV is still warm from recent operation, give the engine
and exhaust system time to cool off.
• Park in a shady area. Washing your ATV in bright sunlight may
cause the finish to fade because water droplets intensify the sun’s
brightness.
• Spotting is also more likely because surface water can dry before
you have time to wipe it off.
• Clean your ATV regularly to protect surface finishes.
• We recommend the use of a low pressure garden hose to wash
your ATV. High pressure washers (like those at coin-operated car
washers) can damage certain parts of your ATV.
NOTICE
High pressure water (or air) can damage certain parts of your ATV.
Water entering the muffler may damage the oxygen sensor.
• After cleaning, inspect for damage, wear, and leaks (fuel, oil,
coolant and brake fluid).
