NISSAN CVT SIC0697 - Manual (Page 206)

REMOVING SPOTS
Remove tar and oil spots, industrial dust, insects,
and tree sap as quickly as possible from the
surface of the paint to avoid lasting damage or
staining. Special cleaning products are available
at your NISSAN dealer or any automotive acces-
sory store.
UNDERBODY
In areas where road salt is used in winter, the
underbody must be cleaned regularly. This will
prevent dirt and salt from building up and caus-
ing underbody and suspension corrosion. Be-
fore the winter period and again in the spring, the
underseal must be checked and, if necessary,
re-treated.
GLASS
Use glass cleaner to remove smoke and dust film
from the glass surfaces. It is normal for glass to
become coated with a film after the vehicle is
parked in the hot sun. Glass cleaner and a soft
cloth will easily remove this film.
CAUTION
When cleaning the inside of the win-
dow, do not use sharp-edged tools,
abrasive cleaners or chlorine based dis-
infectant cleaners. They could damage
the electrical conductors, radio antenna
elements or rear window defogger ele-
ments.
ALUMINUM ALLOY WHEELS
Wash regularly, especially during winter months
in areas where road salt is used. Salt could
discolor the wheel if not removed.
CHROME PARTS
Clean all chrome parts regularly with a non-
abrasive chrome polish to maintain the finish.
Occasionally remove loose dust from the interior
trim, plastic parts and seats using a vacuum
cleaner or soft brush. Wipe the vinyl and leather
surfaces with a clean, soft cloth dampened in
mild soap solution, then wipe clean with a dry
soft cloth. Before using any fabric protector,
read the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Some fabric protectors contain chemicals that
may stain or bleach the seat material.
Use a cloth dampened only with water, to clean
the meter and gauge lens.
CAUTION
¼ Never use gasoline, thinner, or any
similar material.
¼ The leather seats should be regularly
coated with a leather wax like saddle
soap. Never use car wax.
¼ Never use fabric protectors unless
recommended by the manufacturer.
¼ Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on
meter or gauge lens covers. It may
damage the lens cover.
