7-1. Maintenance and care
WARNING
Water in the vehicle
Do not splash or spill liquid in
the vehicle.
Doing so may cause electrical
components, etc., to malfunc-
tion or catch fire.
Do not get any of the SRS com-
ponents or wiring in the vehicle
interior wet.
(P.33)
An electrical malfunction may
cause the airbags to deploy or
not function properly, resulting
in death or serious injury.
Vehicles with wireless charger:
Do not let the wireless charger
(P.540) get wet. Failure to do
so may cause the charger to
become hot and cause burns or
could cause electric shock
resulting in death or serious
injury.
Cleaning the interior (espe-
cially instrument panel)
Do not use a polish wax or polish
cleaner. The instrument panel
may reflect off the windshield,
obstructing the driver’s view and
leading to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
NOTICE
Cleaning detergents
Do not use the following types
of detergent, as they may dis-
color the vehicle interior or
cause streaks or damage to
painted surfaces:
Non-seat portions: Organic sub-
stances such as benzene or
gasoline, alkaline or acidic solu-
tions, dye, and bleach
Seats: Alkaline or acidic solu-
tions, such as thinner, benzene,
and alcohol
Do not use a polish wax or pol-
ish cleaner. The instrument
panel’s or other interior part’s
painted surface may be dam-
aged.
Preventing damage to leather
surfaces
Observe the following precautions
to avoid damage to and deteriora-
tion of leather surfaces:
Remove any dust or dirt from
leather surfaces immediately.
Do not expose the vehicle to
direct sunlight for extended peri-
ods of time. Park the vehicle in
the shade, especially during
summer.
Do not place items made of
vinyl, plastic, or containing wax
on the upholstery, as they may
stick to the leather surface if the
vehicle interior heats up signifi-
cantly.
Water on the floor
Do not wash the vehicle floor with
water.
Vehicle systems such as the
audio system may be damaged if
water comes into contact with
electrical components such as the
audio system above or under the
floor of the vehicle. Water may
also cause the body to rust.
When cleaning the inside of
the windshield
Do not allow glass cleaner to con-
tact the lens. Also, do not touch
the lens. (P.224)
