The instrument panel is coated with a
special surface treatment to prevent
reflection and glare.
Wipe any moisture (including rainwater) on
the instrument panel with a dry, soft cloth
immediately.
Using plenty of water, clean the instrument
panel with a soft cloth or sponge.
For a dirtier instrument panel, use a diluted
neutral detergent with a sponge and plenty
of water. Make sure to wash off all the
detergent. Dry with a soft, clean cloth.
Take care to keep battery electrolyte, brake
fluid, or other chemical solvents off the
instrument panel. They will damage the
special surface treatment of the instrument
panel.
The exhaust pipe and muffler are stainless
steel but may become stained by mud or
dust.
To remove mud or dust, use a wet sponge
and a liquid kitchen abrasive, then rinse
well with clean water. Dry with chamois or
a soft towel.
If necessary, remove heat stains by using a
commercially available fine texture
compound. Then rinse by the same manner
as removing mud or dust.
When the exhaust pipe and muffler are
painted, do not use a commercially
available abrasive kitchen cleaning
compound. Use a neutral detergent to
clean the painted surface on the exhaust
pipe and muffler. If you are not sure if your
exhaust pipe and muffler are painted,
contact your dealer.

NOTICE
Even though the exhaust is made of stainless steel, it
can become stained. Remove all marks and blemishes
as soon as they are noticed.
