6-1.Maintenance and care
 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
thoroughly with water.
 Wipe away any water.
 Wax the vehicle when the
waterproof coating deterio-
rates.
If water does not bead on a clean
surface, apply wax when the vehi-
cle body is cool.
■ Self-restoring coat (if equipped)
The vehicle body has a self-restor-
ing coating that is resistant to small
surface scratches caused in a car
wash etc.
● The coating lasts for 5 to 8 years
from when the vehicle is delivered
from the plant.
● The restoration time differs
depending on the depth of the
scratch and outside temperature.
The restoration time may become
shorter when the coating is
warmed by applying warm water.
● Deep scratches caused by keys,
coins, etc. cannot be restored.
● Do not use wax that contain abra-
sives.
■ Automatic car washes
● Before washing the vehicle:
• Fold the mirrors
• Turn off the power back door
Start washing from the front of the
vehicle. Make sure to extend the
mirrors before driving.
● Brushes used in automatic car
washes may scratch the vehicle
surface, parts (wheel, etc.) and
harm your vehicle’s paint.
● 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
As water may enter the cabin, do
not bring the nozzle tip near the
gaps around the doors or perimeter
of the windows, or spray these
areas continuously.
■ Note for a smart key system
If the door handle becomes wet
while the electronic key is within the
effective range, the door may lock
and unlock repeatedly. In that case,
follow the following correction pro-
cedures to wash the vehicle:
● Place the key in a position 6 ft. (2
m) or more separate from the
vehicle while the vehicle is being
washed. (Take care to ensure that
the key is not stolen.)
● Set the electronic key to battery-
saving mode to disable the smart
key system. (
