Automatic car washes

Fold the mirrors and remove the antenna before washing the vehicle.
Start washing from the front of the vehicle. Make sure to re-install the
antenna and extend the mirrors before driving.

Brushes used in automatic car washes may scratch the vehicle surface
and harm your vehicle’s paint.

Roof antenna, rear spoiler may not be washable in some automatic car
washes. There may also be an increased risk of damage to vehicle.

High pressure car washes
●
Do not allow the nozzles of the car wash to come within close proximity
of the windows.

Before using the car wash, check that the fuel filler door on your vehicle
is closed properly.
Perform the following to protect the vehicle and maintain it in prime
condition:
●
Working from top to bottom, liberally apply water to the vehicle
body, wheel wells and underside of the vehicle to remove any
dirt and dust.
●
Wash the vehicle body using a sponge or soft cloth, such as a
chamois.
●
For hard-to-remove marks, use car wash soap and rinse thor-
oughly with water.

Wipe away any water.
●
Wax the vehicle when the waterproof coating deteriorates.
If water does not bead on a clean surface, apply wax when the vehicle
body is cool.
