Vehicle Care

Fabric/Carpet/Suede

Start by vacuuming the surface
using a soft brush attachment. If a
rotating brush attachment is being
used during vacuuming, only use it
on the floor carpet. Before cleaning,
gently remove as much of the soil
as possible using one of the
following techniques:

.

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 or club
soda. 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 club
soda or 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.

Following the cleaning process, a
paper towel can be used to blot
excess moisture.

Cleaning High Gloss Surfaces
and Vehicle Information and
Radio Displays

For vehicles with high gloss
surfaces or vehicle displays, use a
microfiber cloth to wipe surfaces.
Before wiping the surface with the
microfiber cloth, use a soft bristle
brush to remove dirt that could
scratch the surface. Then use the
microfiber cloth by gently rubbing to
clean. 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.

Instrument Panel, Leather,
Vinyl, & Other Plastic Surfaces

Use a soft microfiber cloth
dampened with water to remove
dust and loose dirt. For a more
thorough cleaning, use a soft
microfiber cloth dampened with a
mild soap solution.
