Appearance Care

Form No. 8Q42-EA-01F

Dashboard Precautions

Prevent caustic solutions such as perfume 
and cosmetic oils from contacting the 
dashboard. They’ll damage and discolor 
it. If these solutions get on the dashboard, 
wipe them off immediately.

Cleaning the Upholstery and 
Interior Trim

Vinyl

Remove dust and loose dirt from vinyl 
with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner.
Clean vinyl with a leather-and-vinyl 
cleaner.

Leather

Real leather isn’t uniform and may have 
scars, scratches, and wrinkles. Clean it 
with a leather cleaner or mild soap.
If the leather gets wet from rain, remove 
the moisture as soon as possible and dry 
in a shaded area.
If the seats get wet, promptly remove 
moisture with a dry cloth and allow it to 
further dry in a shaded area.
If moisture is not removed, it will cause 
hardening and shrinkage of the leather.
Do not leave vinyl products on the seats 
for long periods as they may affect the 
leather quality and coloring.

Fabric

Remove dust and loose dirt from fabric 
with a whisk broom or vacuum cleaner.
Clean it with a mild soap solution good 
for upholstery and carpets. Remove fresh 
spots immediately with a fabric spot 
cleaner.

To keep the fabric looking clean and 
fresh, take care of it. Otherwise its color 
will be affected, it can be stained easily, 
and its fire-resistance may be reduced.

Cleaning the Lap/Shoulder Belt 
Webbing

Clean the webbing with a mild soap 
solution recommended for upholstery or 
carpets. Follow instructions. Don’t bleach 
or dye the webbing; this may weaken it.

After cleaning the belts, thoroughly dry 
the belt webbing and make sure there is 
no remaining moisture before retracting 
them.

Interior Care

Use only recommended cleaners and 
procedures. Others may affect 
appearance and fire-resistance.

Damaged Seat Belt:
Using damaged seat belts is 
dangerous. In a collision, damaged 
belts cannot provide adequate 
protection. Have your Authorized 
Mazda Dealer replace damaged belts 
immediately.
