The water temperature must not be more than +140 °F
(+60 °C).
To help prevent damage to the paint, do not wash the vehicle
in direct sunlight.
Do not use insect sponges, abrasive kitchen sponges or
similar things to clean the vehicle. These can damage the
paint finish.
Never clean headlights with a dry cloth or sponge. Always use
a wet cloth or sponge. For best results use soapy water.
When washing or rinsing the vehicle in cold weather, do not let
water get into the lock cylinders or point the hose at gaps
around the doors, hood, or rear hatch. The water could freeze
on the locks and seals and make it difficult to open the vehicle!
When outside temperatures are low, wipe the rubber seals and
their contact surfaces dry to help prevent freezing.
