Cleaning exterior
In order to maintain the appearance of your vehicle, it is important to take proper care of it.
To protect the paint surfaces, wash your vehicle
as soon as you can:
- after a rainfall to prevent possible damage
from acid rain
- after driving on coastal roads
- when contaminants such as soot, bird
droppings, tree sap, metal particles or bugs
get on the paint surface
- when dust or mud builds up on the surface
Whenever possible, store or park your vehicle inside a garage or in a covered area.
When it is necessary to park outside, park in a shady area or protect the vehicle with a body cover.
Be careful not to scratch the paint surface when putting on or removing the body cover.
