Waxing
If you wish to wax your vehicle, only use a wax
specified for use over clear coats, such as
Nissan Liquid or Spray Wax, because your
INFINITI has been finished with the finest paint
and hard clear coats. Your INFINITI dealer can
assist you in choosing the proper product.
O Wax your vehicle only after a thorough
washing. Follow the instructions supplied
with the wax.
O Do not use a wax containing any abra-
sives, cutting compounds or cleaners that
may damage the vehicle finish.
O If the surface does not polish easily, use a
‘‘road tar’’ remover and wax again.
Machine compounding or aggressive
polishing on a base coat/clear coat
paint finish may dull the finish or leave
swirl marks.
Removing spots
Remove tar and oil spots, industrial dust,
insects, and tree sap as quickly as possible
from the paint surface to avoid lasting damage
or staining. Special cleaning products are
available at your INFINITI dealer or automotive
accessory stores.
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
causing underbody and suspension corrosion.
Before the winter period and again in the
spring, the underseal must be checked and, if
necessary, re-treated.
Cleaning 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
O When cleaning the inside of the
window, do not use any sharp-
edged tools, abrasive cleaners or
chlorine based disinfectant clean-
ers.
O These may damage the radio an-
tenna elements or the rear win-
dow defogger.
Cleaning 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 chrome parts regularly with a non-
abrasive chrome polish to maintain the finish.
