• Do not use fuel, kerosene, or paint thinner to clean any glass parts.
If you cannot remove those streaks after cleaning with the glass cleaner or if the
wipers chatter and move in a jerky motion, clean the outer surface of the windshield
and the wiper blades using a sponge or soft cloth with a neutral detergent or mild-
abrasive cleaning solution. After cleaning, rinse the windshield and wiper blades with
clean water. The windshield is clean if beads do not form when you rinse the
windshield with water.
Do not use sharp objects, such as a razor blade, to remove decals, as it may cause
damage to the glass or rear windshield heater grid lines (if equipped).
14.15.8 Instrument Panel/Interior Trim and Cluster Lens
Do not use chemical solvents or strong detergents when cleaning the steering
wheel or instrument panel.
Clean the instrument panel, interior trim areas and cluster lens with a clean and
damp white cotton cloth, then with a clean and dry white cotton cloth; you may also
use Dash and Vinyl Cleaner on the instrument panel and interior trim areas.
• Avoid cleaners or polishes that increase the gloss of the upper portion of the
instrument panel. The dull finish in this area helps protect the driver from
undesirable windshield reflection
• Do not use household or glass cleaners as these may damage the finish of the
instrument panel, interior trim and cluster lens
If a staining liquid like coffee/juice has been spilled on the instrument panel or on the
interior trim surfaces, clean as follows;
• Wipe up spilled liquid using a clean white cotton cloth
• Apply Vinyl Cleaner to the wiped area and spread around evenly
• Apply cleaner to a clean white cotton cloth and press the cloth onto the soiled
area and allow this to set in at room temperature for 30 minutes
• Remove the soaked cloth, and if it is not soiled badly, use this cloth to clean the
area with a rubbing motion for 60 seconds
• Following this, wipe area dry with a clean white cotton cloth
14.15.9 Interior Maintenance
For fabric, carpets, cloth seats, safety belts and seats:
• Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner
• Remove light stains and soil with carpet and upholstery cleaner
• If grease or tar is present on the material, spot-clean the area first with a stain
remover
• Do not use household cleaning products or glass cleaners, which can stain and
discolor the fabric and affect the flame retardant abilities of the seat materials
• Do not use cleaning solvents, bleach or dye on the vehicle's safety belts, as these
actions may weaken the belt webbing.
14.15.10 Leather Seats (where applicable)
Your leather seating surfaces have a clear, protective coating over the leather.
• To clean, use a soft cloth with a leather and vinyl cleaner. Dry the area with a soft
cloth
• To help maintain its resiliency and color, use the leather care kit, available from an
Authorized Mahindra Dealer
• Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions, solvents or cleaners
intended for rubber, vinyl and plastics, or oil/petroleum-based leather
conditioners. These products may cause premature wearing of the clear,
protective coating
