Rear quarter glass

The rear quarter glass is made from

polycarbonate resin. As this material

is easily scratched compared to

conventional glass, observe the following

procedure when cleaning:

1

Remove dust and dirt on the surface

with plenty of water.

2

Clean the surface using a mild soap or neutral detergent.

3

Rinse it with adequate water.

When cleaning the rear quarter glass:

• Do not use wax, window cleaner or abrasive cleaner.

• Do not touch glass surface with anything hard or sharp.

• Do not use window scraper or deicer.

Do not attach stickers or apply water repellent coating to the rear quarter glass. Contact

with glue or other agents may cause the glass to become cloudy or blemished.

Active rear wing

The active rear wing can be manually operated to allow excess water to be removed

after the vehicle is washed.

Manual operation is only possible when the vehicle is stationary with the ignition

switch in the “ON” position.

If the active rear wing is left in the raised

position, it will automatically retract when

the vehicle speed exceeds 16 MPH (25

km/h).

Before operating the switch to manually retract the active rear wing, make sure that the

area surrounding the wing is clear. Watch the active rear wing while operating the switch

to ensure that the operation proceeds smoothly.
