Vehicle Care

9-115

To clean:

1. Saturate a lint-free, clean white

cloth with water or club soda.

2. Remove excess moisture.

3. Start on the outside edge of the

soil and gently rub toward the
center. Continue cleaning, using
a clean area of the cloth each
time it becomes soiled.

4. Continue to gently rub the

soiled area.

5. If the soil is not completely

removed, use a mild soap
solution and repeat the cleaning
process with plain water.

If any of the soil remains, a
commercial fabric cleaner or spot
lifter may be necessary. Test a small
hidden area for colorfastness before
using a commercial upholstery
cleaner or spot lifter. If the locally
cleaned area gives any impression
that a ring formation may result,
clean the entire surface.

A paper towel can be used to blot
excess moisture from the fabric or
carpet after the cleaning process.

Leather

To remove dust, a soft cloth
dampened with water can be used.
If a more thorough cleaning is
necessary, a soft cloth dampened
with a mild soap solution can be
used. Allow the leather to dry
naturally. Do not use heat, steam,
spot lifters or spot removers,
or shoe polish on leather. Many
commercial leather cleaners and
coatings that are sold to preserve
and protect leather may
permanently change the
appearance and feel of the leather
and are not recommended. Do not
use silicone or wax-based products,
or those containing organic solvents
to clean the vehicle's interior
because they can alter the
appearance by increasing the
gloss in a non-uniform manner.
