harsh chemicals, including

sium wheels.
harsh chemicals, abrasive

contaminated with abrasive
cleaning products or strong
chemicals such as, solvents,
gasoline, rust removers, brake

Before washing
1. Park the vehicle out of direct sun-
light and allow it to cool. This will
help avoid water spots.
2. Make sure all caps, covers, electri-
cal couplers and connectors are
tightly installed.
3. Cover the muffler end with a plas-
tic bag and a strong rubber band.
4. Pre-soak stubborn stains like in-
sects or bird droppings with a wet
towel for a few minutes.
5. Remove road grime and oil stains
with a biodegradable degreaser
(YAMACLEAN Pro-Wash Spray)
and a plastic-bristle brush or
sponge.
NOTICE:
Do not use de-
greasing agent on areas requir-
ing lubrication such as seals,
gaskets, and wheel axles. Fol-
low product instructions.
[ECA26290]
Washing
1. Rinse off any degreaser and spray
down the vehicle with a garden
hose. Use only enough pressure
to do the job. Avoid spraying water
directly into the muffler, instrument
panel, air inlet, or other inner areas
such as underseat storage com-
partments.
2. Wash the vehicle with a quality au-
tomotive-type detergent (YAMA-
LUBE Wash & Wax) mixed with
cool water and a soft, clean towel
or sponge. Use an old toothbrush
or plastic-bristle brush for
hard-to-reach places.
NOTICE:
Use cold water if the vehicle has
been exposed to salt. Warm wa-
ter will increase salt’s corrosive
properties.
[ECA26301]
3. For windshield-equipped vehicles:
Clean the windshield with a soft
towel or sponge dampened with
water and a pH neutral detergent.
If necessary, use a high-quality
windshield cleaner (YAMACLEAN
Glass Cleaner) or windshield pol-
ish.
NOTICE:
Never use any
strong chemicals to clean the
windshield. Additionally, some
cleaning compounds for plastic
may scratch the windshield, so
be sure to test all cleaning prod-
ucts before general applica-
tion.
[ECA26310]
4. Rinse off thoroughly with clean wa-
ter. Be sure to remove all deter-
gent residues, as they can be
harmful to plastic parts.
After washing
1. Dry the vehicle with a chamois or
absorbent towel, preferably micro-
fiber terrycloth.
2. For drive chain-equipped models,
dry and then lubricate it to prevent
rust.
