Simple inspection and service
CAUTION
•
Wash the vehicle with luke-warm or cold
water. Do not use very hot water.
•
Avoid leaving the vehicle in direct sunlight.
•
Avoid splashing water on the air intake port
or the area where it connects to the engine.
Especially when the vehicle is washed with
the cab tilted, avoid allowing water to enter
the engine through the air intake port.
•
Do not use concentrated soap or synthetic
detergents.
•
Rinse the detergent off with water. Take care
that none remains on the paintwork since it
could discolor the paint.
•
Cleaning plastic parts with thinner or gaso-
line could result in cracking or discoloration.
•
Do not use a vehicle-cleaning brush to clean
the plastic lenses of the turn-signal lamps
and parking lamps. A brush could scratch
the lenses. Wash the lenses with water, then
wipe them with a soft cloth.
•
In cold weather, the key holes and rubber
parts of the door sometimes freeze, making
it hard to open the door. After washing,
remove moisture on and around the doors.
Applying silicone with antifreeze capabilities
is one solution to this problem.
•
Do not clean the interior by splashing water
on it as this could damage relays, the com-
puter, and other electrical devices.
•
Thoroughly wash the vehicle, especially the
wheelhouses and underside of the chassis
after driving on coastal roads or roads where
road chemicals have been applied. Thor-
ough washing is also important if your vehi-
cle is frequently used to transport marine
products or lime because seawater will
affect the vehicle and lime will severely dam-
age the vehicle’s paintwork. Road chemicals,
if left deposited for a long time on vehicle
parts, will set hard and be difficult to remove
by ordinary washing. Wash out road chemi-
cals using a high-pressure cleaning machine
if necessary so that they do not remain on
the vehicle. Road chemicals in large
amounts as well as salt will easily cause
rusting.
