• Cover the highlighted areas to prevent water damage when cleaning

the engine.

running engine may cause internal damage.

Cleaning the instrument panel

the instrument panel. The dull finish in this area helps protect the driver
from undesirable windshield reflection.

Do not use chemical solvents or strong detergents when cleaning
the steering wheel or instrument panel to avoid contamination of

the air bag system.

Do not use household or glass cleaners as these may damage the lens.

Cleaning the overhead console

Clean with a damp cloth, then wipe dry with a dry cloth.

Avoid cleaner or polish that increases the gloss of the console. The dull
finish in this area helps protect the driver from undesirable windshield
reflection.
