EXTERIOR SURFACES
Frequent washing and waxing of the vehicle
exterior will help protect the finish and luster. The
paint finish is attacked by the abrasive effects of
airborne particles and corrosive pollutants.
Before washing the exterior of the vehicle, close
the fresh air dampers using the “REC” button
located on HVAC control panel and on the air
intake duct in the evaporator compartment. Install
keyhole
protectors
to
prevent
water
from
penetrating. Rinse vehicle with water to remove
all loose dirt. Wash vehicle using quality brand
car
wash
soap.
Follow
manufacturer's
recommendations for cleaning. Rinse well with
water.
The vehicle exterior should be cleaned, waxed
and buffed when water droplets no longer form on
the painted surfaces.
CAUTION
Hot water can damage paint. Keep water cool or
lukewarm.
CAUTION
Make sure cleaning solutions are not harmful to
painted
surfaces.
Read
the
manufacturer's
instructions before using.
CAUTION
Do not spray water jet directly into fresh air inlet
dampers.
CAUTION
Do not aim high pressure water jet at radiator or
condenser doors. This could damage the fins.
To prevent corrosion, remove caked-on dirt and
road salt from the vehicle underbody using a high
pressure water jet. Clean wheel housings,
bumpers, muffler, tailpipe and brackets.
Carry out corrosion prevention cleaning at least
twice a year. Spray underneath of the vehicle
and let soak before cleaning. Let engine and
exhaust system cool down before cleaning.
Tar Or Oil
Remove tar or oil as soon as possible with an
approved automotive tar and oil remover or
turpentine. Thoroughly clean area with car wash
soap and water. Let dry, then wax.
Insects
Remove insect stains as soon as possible with
lukewarm soap and water or insect remover.
Tree Sap
Remove tree sap or bird droppings with lukewarm
soap and water. Do not allow to harden.
WINDSHIELD
To prevent windshield wiper streaking, keep
silicone sprays away from windshield. Remove
road film and wax build- up from windows with
lukewarm soap and water or with an alcohol-
based cleaning agent. If a chamois is used to dry
and polish glass, use it exclusively for that
purpose.
Wiper Blades
To avoid tearing frozen wiper blades, loosen
them before removing. Remove and clean wiper
blades
periodically
with
an
alcohol- based
cleaning solution. Clean wiper blades using a
sponge or soft cloth.
FLUID LEVEL VERIFICATION
Periodic inspection of oil and fluids levels is the
most economical and easiest way to help your
vehicle perform at its best. Rigorous oil level
inspection and replacement will greatly help
minimize expensive and unscheduled repairs.
ENGINE OIL LEVEL
WARNING
Check the engine oil level with vehicle parked on
a level surface and with the parking brake
engaged.
Check engine oil level when engine is still warm.
Shut off engine and wait at least 10 minutes for oil
to drain into oil pan before checking. Check
engine oil level daily or before each trip. Add oil
as required. Do not overfill. Remove dipstick,
wipe clean and fully reinsert to ensure an
accurate reading. Remove dipstick and check
engine oil level.
