Do not apply wheel cleaners to the

wheels when they are hot. The wheel
temperature should be the same as am-
bient temperature.

Rinse the wheel to completely remove

the cleaner within 15 minutes after the
cleaner is applied.

CHROME PARTS

Clean all chrome parts regularly with a non-
abrasive chrome polish to maintain the finish.

TIRE DRESSINGS

NISSAN does not recommend the use of tire
dressings. Tire manufacturers apply a coating to
the tires to help reduce discoloration of the rub-
ber. If a tire dressing is applied to the tires, it may
react with the coating and form a compound. This
compound may come off the tire while driving and
stain the vehicle paint.

If you choose to use a tire dressing, take the
following precautions:

● Use a water-based tire dressing. The coat-

ing on the tire dissolves more easily than
with an oil-based tire dressing.

● Apply a light coat of tire dressing to help

prevent

it

from

entering

the

tire

tread/grooves (where it would be difficult to
remove).

● Wipe off excess tire dressing using a dry

towel. Make sure the tire dressing is com-
pletely removed from the tire tread/grooves.

● Allow the tire dressing to dry as recom-

mended by the tire dressing manufacturer.

Occasionally remove loose dust from the interior
trim, plastic parts and seats using a vacuum
cleaner or soft bristled brush. Wipe the vinyl and
leather surfaces with a clean, soft cloth damp-
ened in mild soap solution, then wipe clean with a
dry, soft cloth.

Regular care and cleaning is required in order to
maintain the appearance of the leather.

Before using any fabric protector, read the manu-
facturer’s recommendations. Some fabric pro-
tectors contain chemicals that may stain or
bleach the seat material.

Use a cloth dampened only with water to clean
the meter and gauge lens.

WARNING

Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot
steam cleaners) on the seat. This can dam-
age the seat or occupant classification
sensor. This can also affect the operation
of the air bag system and result in serious
personal injury.
