Wax the vehicle when the water-
proof coating deteriorates.

If water does not bead on a clean surface,
apply wax when the vehicle body is cool.

Self-restoring coat

The vehicle body has a self-restoring coat-

ing 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 tem-

perature. 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 abrasives.

Automatic car washes

Before washing the vehicle:

• Fold the mirrors

• Turn off the power back door (if

equipped)

Start washing from the front of the vehicle.
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.
