Aluminium wheels
1. Remove dirt using a sponge while sprinkling water on the wheel.
2. Use neutral detergent on any dirt that cannot be removed easily with water.
Rinse off the neutral detergent after washing the wheel.
3. Dry the wheel thoroughly using a chamois leather or a soft cloth.
Caution
► Do not use a brush or other hard implement on the wheels.
Doing so could scratch the wheels.

Doing so could cause the coating on the wheels to peel or become discoloured or
stained.
► Do not directly apply hot water using a steam cleaner or by any other means.
► Contact with seawater and road deicer can cause corrosion. Rinse off such substances
as soon as possible.
