Cybertruck manual warns owners to act ‘immediately’ if these certain substances are found on the car

For any high-end vehicle, you can expect double the maintenance work to ensure it stays in tip-top condition.

However, the specific maintenance required from Tesla's Cybertrucks has surprised a lot of vehicle owners after one owner posted a picture of the user manual and shared it online.

As seen on the X platform, the new Cybertruck owner manual read: 'To prevent damage to the exterior, immediately remove corrosive substances (such as grease, oil, bird droppings, tree resin, dead insects, tar spots, road salt, industrial fallout, etc.).'

This is because the Cybertruck's body is unpainted and its 301 stainless steel exterior requires extra care to maintain its appearance.

The manual goes into detail about the appropriate cleaning methods, suggesting: 'If necessary, use denatured alcohol to remove tar spots and stubborn grease stains, then immediately wash the area with water and a mild, non-detergent soap to remove the alcohol.'

Nonetheless, there's a difference between wiping off dead insects and bird poop off your car in summer, and dealing with road salt in the winter months. It seems nearly impossible to avoid, let alone washing it off the vehicle immediately.

One social media user jokingly commented on the level of care required, saying: 'Wait, what? …Immediately wash off bird poop, dead insects and tree resin? Is this a badass Cybertruck or a f–king cream puff?'.

Another sarcastically responded: 'These will hold up really well in states that use salt on their roads in the winter!'

Other users have shrugged it off saying that the same goes for every car. One read: 'This is pretty normal care advice, honestly. Bird poop and tree sap are corrosive for every car, and that's always been the case. It's stainless steel, not adamantium.'

One other user questioned the design behind the Tesla vehicle, asking: 'Wait, they didn't even clear coat it? Given it's structural body panels I wonder if the chromium content is lower than other stainless steel, making it stronger, but less rust resistant.'

At the Tesla Cybertruck's original launch in 2019, it was reported that the exterior would be made of the same stainless steel that's used by sister company SpaceX for its Starship spacecraft.

Outside of maintenance, the Cybertruck's design has raised safety questions with authorities.

Despite Elon Musk's 'highly confident' tweets that the Cybertruck will be 'much safer per mile than other trucks,' safety experts are concerned about the danger that the enormous vehicle presents on the road, in terms of other cars and pedestrians.
