CLEANING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Clean the instrument panel with a damp cloth, then dry with a dry cloth.

Avoid cleaners or polish 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 chemical solvents or strong detergents when cleaning
the steering wheel or instrument panel to avoid contamination of

the air bag system.

CLEANING THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LENS

Wipe the cluster area with a soft, damp cotton towel. Dry the area with a
clean, dry towel.

CLEANING WOOD-TONE TRIM

Wipe stains with a clean, soft cloth and Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner
(E4AZ-19C507–AA). Dry the area by wiping with a dry, soft, clean cloth.

CLEANING THE INSIDE WINDOWS

Use Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner (E4AZ-19C507–AA) for the inside
windows if they become fogged.

To clean, use two lint-free, soft towels, folded into a pad-shape. Mist the
glass completely with cleaner, and use one of the towels to evenly agitate
the surface. Use the other towel to remove the residue.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR FABRIC, CARPETS AND CLOTH SEATS

Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner. Remove light stains
and soil with Extra Strength Upholstery Cleaner (E8AZ-19523–AA).

Never saturate the seat covers with cleaning solution.

Do not use household cleaning products or glass cleaners, which
can stain and discolor the fabric and affect the flame retardent
abilities of the seat materials.

If grease or tar is present on the material, spot-clean the area first with
Spot and Stain Remover (F3AZ-19521–WA). Follow up by recleaning the
area with Extra Strength Upholstery Cleaner (E8AZ-19523–AA).
