Never spray or splash water on the electrical
accessories in the engine compartment. This
puts the engine at risk of being damaged.
Do not bring the circumferential parts, the
plastic parts and so on into contact with sulfu-
ric acid (battery electrolyte) which may
crack, stain or discolor them.
If they are in contact, wipe off with soft cloth,
chamois or the like and an aqueous solution
of neutral detergent then immediately rinse
the affected parts with plenty of water.
Do not let plastic parts get soiled with gaso-
line, oil, brake fluids, engine oils, greases,
paint thinner, and sulfuric acid (battery elec-
trolyte), as such substances will cause stains,
cracks, or discoloration.
If any of these get on a plastic part, wipe
them up with a soft cloth or chamois and a
mild solution of soap and water. Then rinse
them immediately with water.

CAUTION
Do not use a brush or other hard implement
on the wheels.
Do not use any cleaner that contains an abra-
sive substance or is acidic or alkaline. Doing
so could cause the coating on the wheels to
peel or become discolored or stained.
Do not directly apply hot water using a steam
cleaner or by any other means.
Contact with seawater or road salt used for
de-icing can cause corrosion. Rinse off such
substances as soon as possible.
