To prevent dirt particle abrasions, regularly clean the vehicle interior.
Immediately remove any soils. Newspapers or dark garments can transfer
color to the vehicle interior.
Use a soft bristle brush to remove dust from knobs and crevices on the
instrument cluster. Using a mild soap solution, immediately remove hand
lotions, sunscreen, and insect repellent from all interior surfaces or
permanent damage may result.
Use cleaners specifically designed for the surfaces being cleaned to prevent
permanent damage. Apply all cleaners directly to the cleaning cloth. Do not
spray cleaners on any switches or controls. Remove cleaners quickly.
Before using cleaners, read and follow all safety instructions on the label.
While cleaning the interior, open the doors and windows to get proper
ventilation.
To prevent damage, do not clean the interior using the following cleaners or
techniques:
CAUTION
Never use a razor or any other sharp object to remove soil from any
interior surface. . Never use a brush with stiff bristles. .
Never rub any surface aggressively or with too much pressure. .
Do not use laundry detergents or dishwashing soaps with degreasers.
For liquid cleaners, use approximately 20 drops per 3.8 L (1 gal) of
water. A concentrated soap solution will create streaks and attract dirt.
Do not use solutions that contain strong or caustic soap. .
Do not heavily saturate the upholstery when cleaning. .
Do not use solvents or cleaners containing solvents.
To clean, use a terry cloth fabric dampened with water. Wipe droplets left
behind with a clean dry cloth. If necessary, use a commercial glass cleaner
after cleaning with plain water.
Cleaning the windshield with water during the first three to six months of
ownership will reduce tendency to fog.
CAUTION
To prevent scratching, never use abrasive cleaners on automotive glass. Abrasive
cleaners or aggressive cleaning may damage the rear window defogger.
Coated moldings should be cleaned.
When lightly soiled, wipe with a sponge or soft, lint-free cloth dampened
with water. .
When heavily soiled, use warm soapy water.
Start by vacuuming the surface using a soft brush attachment. If a rotating
vacuum brush attachment is being used, only use it on the floor carpet. Before
cleaning, gently remove as much of the soil as possible:
Gently blot liquids with a paper towel. Continue blotting until no more soil
can be removed. .
For solid soils, remove as much as possible prior to vacuuming.
