CLEANING LEATHER SEATS
(IF EQUIPPED, EXCEPT FOR THE KING RANCH® EDITION)

Note: For the King Ranch® Edition leather seats, refer to a separate
section in this chapter.
• Clean spills and stains as quickly as possible.
• For routine cleaning, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For

more thorough cleaning, wipe the surface with a mild soap and water
solution. In Canada, use Motorcraft® Vinyl Cleaner (CXC-93). Dry the
area with a soft cloth.

• If the leather cannot be completely cleaned using a mild soap and

water solution, the leather may be cleaned using a commercially
available leather cleaning product designed for automotive interiors.

• To check for compatibility, first test any cleaner or stain remover on

an inconspicuous part of the leather.

• 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 or
damage to the leather.

CLEANING LEATHER SEATS
(IF EQUIPPED WITH THE KING RANCH® EDITION)

Your vehicle is equipped with seating covered in premium, top-grain
leather which is extremely durable, but still requires special care and
maintenance in order to ensure longevity and comfort.

Regular cleaning and conditioning will maintain the appearance of the
leather.

Cleaning

For dirt, use a vacuum cleaner then use a clean, damp cloth or soft brush.

For routine cleaning, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For more
thorough cleaning, wipe the surface with a mild soap and water solution.
• Clean spills as quickly as possible.
• Test any cleaner or stain remover on an inconspicuous part of the

leather as cleaners may darken the leather.

• Do not spill coffee, ketchup, mustard, orange juice or oil-based

products on the leather as they may permanently stain the leather.

• Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions, solvents or

cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl or plastics.
