Infiniti QX: To protect your vehicle from corrosion
► Wash and wax your vehicle often to
keep the vehicle clean.
► Always check for minor damage to the
paint and repair it as soon as possible.
► Keep drain holes at the bottom of the

► Check the underbody for accumulation
of sand, dirt or salt. If present, wash
with water as soon as possible.
CAUTION
► NEVER remove dirt, sand or other debris
from the passenger compartment by
washing it out with a hose. Remove dirt
with a vacuum cleaner.
► Never allow water or other liquids to
come in contact with electronic components
inside the vehicle as this may
damage them.

For additional protection against rust and corrosion, which may be required in some areas, consult an INFINITI retailer.
