Vehicle Care

Caution

To prevent scratching, never use abrasive
cleaners on automotive glass. Abrasive
cleaners or aggressive cleaning may
damage the rear window defogger.

Cleaning the windshield with water during
the first three to six months of ownership
will reduce tendency to fog.

Speaker Covers

Vacuum around a speaker cover gently, so
that the speaker will not be damaged. Clean
spots with water and mild soap.

Coated Moldings

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.

Fabric/Carpet/Suede

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.

To clean:

1. Saturate a clean, lint-free colorfast cloth

with water. Microfiber cloth is
recommended to prevent lint transfer to
the fabric or carpet.

2. Remove excess moisture by gently

wringing until water does not drip from
the cleaning cloth.

3. Start on the outside edge of the soil and

gently rub toward the center. Fold the
cleaning cloth to a clean area frequently
to prevent forcing the soil in to the
fabric.

4. Continue gently rubbing the soiled area

until there is no longer any color
transfer from the soil to the cleaning
cloth.

5. If the soil is not completely removed,

use a mild soap solution followed only
by plain water.

If the soil is not completely removed, it may
be necessary to use a commercial upholstery
cleaner or spot lifter. Test a small hidden

area for colorfastness before using a
commercial upholstery cleaner or spot lifter.
If ring formation occurs, clean the entire
fabric or carpet.

After cleaning, use a paper towel to blot
excess moisture.

Cleaning High Gloss Surfaces and Vehicle
Information and Radio Displays

Use a microfiber cloth on high gloss surfaces
or vehicle displays. First, use a soft bristle
brush to remove dirt that can scratch the
surface. Then gently clean by rubbing with a
microfiber cloth. Never use window cleaners
or solvents. Periodically hand wash the
microfiber cloth separately, using mild soap.
Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Rinse
thoroughly and air dry before next use.

Caution

Do not attach a device with a suction cup
to the display. This may cause damage
and would not be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
