Aluminum wheel maintenance

The aluminum wheels are coated
with a clear protective finish.
• Do not use any abrasive cleaner,

polishing compound, solvent, or
wire brushes on aluminum wheels.
They may scratch or damage the
finish.

• Use only a mild soap or neutral

detergent, and rinse thoroughly
with water. Also, be sure to clean
the wheels after driving on salted
roads. This helps prevent corro-
sion.

• Avoid washing the wheels with

high-speed car wash brushes.

• Do not use any acid detergent. It

may damage and corrode the alu-
minum wheels coated with a clear
protective finish.
