Spot Cleaning
Don't use gasoline, strong solvents or
corrosive cleaning agents. These can
damage the finish of the car. To re-
move road tar, use turpentine on a
clean, soft cloth or commercially avail-
able bug and tar remover. Be gentle.
To remove dead insects or tree sap,
use warm water and mild soap or car-
washing solution. Soak the spot and
rub gently. If the paint has lost its
luster, use a commercial car-cleaning
polish.

Polishing and Waxing
Always wash and dry the car before
polishing or waxing or using a combi-
nation cleaner and wax. Use a good
quality commercial product and follow
the manufacturer's directions on the
container. Polish and wax the bright
trim pieces as well as the paint.
!
CAUTION:
OJB037800
o Water washing in the engine com-
partment including high pressure
water washing may cause the fail-
ure of electrical circuits located in
the engine compartment.
o Never allow water or other liquids
to come in contact with electrical/
electronic components inside the
vehicle as this may damage them.
!
CAUTION:
o Do not use strong soap, chemical
detergents or hot water, and do
not wash the vehicle in direct sun-
light or when the body of the ve-
hicle is warm.
o Be careful when washing the side
windows of your vehicle. Espe-
cially, with high-pressure water,
water may leak through the win-
dows and wet the interior.
o To prevent damage to the plastic
parts, do not clean with chemical
solvents or strong detergents.
Be sure to rinse the surface after wash-
ing to remove the solution. Never allow
the solution to dry on the painted sur-
faces.
