To clean the windshield and wiper blades:

Clean the windshield with a
non-abrasive glass cleaner.

For windshields contaminated with
tree sap, chemicals, wax or bugs, clean
the entire windshield using steel wool
(no greater than 0000 grade) in a
circular motion and rinse with water.

Clean the wiper blades with isopropyl
rubbing alcohol or windshield washer
fluid.

Note: Do not use razor blades or other
sharp objects to clean or remove decals
from the inside of the heated rear window.
The vehicle warranty does not cover
damage caused to the heated rear window
grid lines.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR

WARNINGS

Do not use cleaning solvents, bleach
or dye on the vehicle’s safety belts,
as these actions may weaken the

belt webbing.

On vehicles equipped with
seat-mounted airbags, do not use
chemical solvents or strong

detergents. Such products could
contaminate the side airbag system and
affect performance of the side airbag in a
collision.

For fabric, carpets, cloth seats, safety belts
and seats equipped with side airbags:

Remove dust and loose dirt with a
vacuum cleaner.

Remove light stains and soil with
Motorcraft Professional Strength
Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner.

If grease or tar is present on the
material, spot-clean the area first with
Motorcraft Spot and Stain Remover. In
Canada, use Motorcraft Multi-Purpose
Cleaner.

If a ring forms on the fabric after spot
cleaning, clean the entire area
immediately (but do not oversaturate)
or the ring will set.

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

CLEANING THE INSTRUMENT
PANEL AND INSTRUMENT
CLUSTER LENS

WARNING

Do not use chemical solvents or
strong detergents when cleaning the
steering wheel or instrument panel

to avoid contamination of the airbag
system.

Clean the instrument panel and cluster
lens with a clean, damp, white cotton
cloth, then use a clean and dry white
cotton cloth to dry these areas.

Avoid cleaners or polishes that increase
the gloss of the upper portion of the
instrument panel. The dull finish in this
area helps protect you from
undesirable windshield reflection.

Be certain to wash or wipe your hands
clean if you have been in contact with
certain products such as insect
repellent and suntan lotion in order to
avoid possible damage to the interior
painted surfaces.
