CAUTION . When cleaning the inside of the windows, do not use sharp-edged tools, abrasive cleaners or chlorinebased disinfectant cleaners. They could damage the electrical conductors, radio antenna elements or rear window defroster elements. If glass cleaner gets on the soft top, immediately wash it off with clean water (CrossCabriolet models). . Do not apply wheel cleaners to the wheels when they are hot. The wheel temperature should be the same as ambient temperature. Rinse the wheel to completely remove the cleaner within 15 minutes after the cleaner is applied. . . . Wipe off excess tire dressing using a dry towel. Make sure the tire dressing is completely removed from the tire tread/ grooves. Allow the tire dressing to dry as recommended by tire dressing manufacturer. CHROME PARTS GUID-F3E4D57D-0215-409B-935F-28BFFF137B7E Clean chrome parts regularly with a nonabrasive chrome polish to maintain the finish. . TIRE DRESSING GUID-341760BC-1EC8-47E6-B2E8-49786F6FC160 NISSAN does not recommend the use of tire dressings. Tire manufacturers apply a coating to the tires to help reduce discoloration of the rubber. 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 coating on the tire dissolves more easily 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).
