Cleaning and protecting the vehicle interior
n Cleaning the inside of the rear window
Do not use glass cleaner to clean the rear window, as this may cause dam-
age to the rear window defogger heater wires. Use a cloth dampened with
lukewarm water to gently wipe the window clean. Wipe the window in
strokes running parallel to the heater wires.
n Caring for leather areas
Toyota recommends cleaning the interior of the vehicle at least twice a year
to maintain the quality of the vehicle's interior.
n Shampooing the carpets
There are several commercial foaming-type cleaners available. Use a
sponge or brush to apply the foam. Rub in overlapping circles. Do not apply
water. The excellent results are obtained when keeping the carpet as dry as
possible.
The following procedures will help protect your vehicle's interior and
keep it in top condition:
n Protecting the vehicle interior

faces with a cloth dampened with lukewarm water.
n Cleaning the leather areas
l Remove dirt and dust using a vacuum cleaner.
l Wipe any excess dirt and dust with a soft cloth dampened with
diluted detergent.
Use a diluted water solution of approximately 5% neutral wool deter-
gent.
l Wring out any excess water from the cloth and thoroughly
wipe off all remaining traces of detergent.
l Wipe the surface with a dry, soft cloth to remove any remain-
ing moisture. Allow the leather to dry in a shaded and venti-
lated area.
