and mild soap, then wipe wet surfaces with a chamois or soft
cloth. DO NOT use hot water or strong soaps or detergents. DO
NOT wash the vehicle in direct sun, or when the sheet metal is
hot to the touch. This will streak the finish. DO NOT wipe dirt off
dry surfaces, as this will scratch the finish.
NOTE: When vehicles are stored outside, particularly in coastal
areas (salt water and high humidity atmosphere) or other
areas of corrosive environment, paint and bright metal may
require frequent washing and waxing to prevent deterioration.
Determining washing frequency is the customers responsibility.
NOTE: For vehicles exposed to ultraviolet rays of the sun, apply
a coating of Bon-Ami® soap, or similar product, to the inside
surfaces of the windshield and windows, to shade the interior
and prevent fading of the interior trim.

metal areas to prevent rust.
3. a thick coat of wax to prevent discoloration from the
elements; wax all chrome and stainless steel metal parts.
4. Check the radiator coolant for proper level and adequate
freeze protection [-20°F (-29°C) is standard for medium duty
models and bus chassis, -40°F (-40°C) is standard for heavy
duty models].
